Question 1:

Hi, we are travelling Melbourne to Paris on Vietnam airlines with a 6 hour stopover in Ho Chi Minh City, then onto Paris still on a VN flight and was wondering do we need a visa? Also on our return flight 9 weeks later we have a Vietnam airlines flight but it will be an Air France code share flight to Ho Chi Minh city with a 8 hour stop over before flying VN to Melbourne, we do not intend leaving the airport, do I need a visa for either of the transit stops in Vietnam??

Dear Sue,

Be kindly noted that no transit visa is required if your transit is less than 24 hours and you do not leave the airport.

Kindly regards,
