In reply to Julian mace. Hi Julian, thanks. I don't believe that there are any restrictions on which border crossings you can use with the visa exemption. Sarah

Hi. Great article. We entered Vietnam on 10 Jan and got Visa on arrival as citizens of one of the 13 exempt countries. We left Vietnam for Laos on the 13 Jan. We are now hoping to enter Vietnam from Cambodia at the Ha Tien border on February 29. Am I right in saying that we will just get another entry stamp at Ha Tien allowing us to stay another 45 days? We don’t have to apply for an eVisa to cross a land border? Thanks

In reply to Sherman. Its the Song Tien Landport (yes, I know its on the river, but that's the name of the border point).

Do you know the name of the border crossing by boat from Chau Doc to Phnom Penh? Vietnam Visa is asking what is the intended point of exit.

Update to everyone who’s interested in:
We crossed Ha Tiên border by foot (3 people).
I paid 3Mil Dong as for visa on arrival for all of us together (no problem that 1 person paid for all of us).

Then after Visa was approved we needed another visa check. The 1st person no problems but me and the third one had to go to another office and 1 Dollar each was needed to cross the border. 25k Dong/person was fine as well.

No printed or digital image was needed.

In reply to Stevan Molloy.

Hi Stevan – that is my understanding (this changed in August 2023, I will update the post), its for citizens of 13 countries – Germany, France, Italy, Spain, the UK, Russia, Japan, Republic of Korea, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Belarus. There is no detail that I can find that says that there is a limit on returning to Vietnam within a certain period of time.

I am travelling to Vietnam and then onto Cambodia then back Vietnam to fly back to UK in Feb 24 I have been told I do not require a visa for Vietnam as you get 45 days tourist visa on arrival.
I am spending 12 days in Vietnam then 5 days in Cambodia before retuning to Vietnam airport to fly home, when I return to Vietnam I will get a further 45 day visa is this correct

In reply to Dianne Longson. Hi Dianne, did you end up doing this land border crossing. I will be going this way in mid November. Just wanted any insight.
