[Chinese Below] Vietnam Entry Rules: Differences for China, Taiwan & Hong Kong Passport Holders
Last Updated: Monday March 02, 2026
Are you thinking about visiting Vietnam but aren't sure if you need a visa?
Vietnam's entry requirements can be complicated for those with passports from China, Taiwan, or Hong Kong; failing to understand them could result in delays or even denial of boarding.
This guide outlines the requirements for entry into Vietnam for passport holders from China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong and demonstrates the most stress-free and secure method of entering the country.
Mainland China Passport (Ordinary & E-Passports)
Previous holders of Chinese E-passport ("Nine-Dash Line" passport) were not eligible to enter Vietnam with this type of passport; however, from 2026, Vietnam e-visa will be completely accessible to Chinese ordinary passport holders.
-
Important: You can now apply for a 90-day multiple-entry e-visa, enabling you to visit Vietnam and other countries via a flight without reapplying.
The holder of a Mainland Chinese passport cannot apply for a visa to Vietnam electronically. Visa approval by a licensed visa service is required before boarding the flight.
Important: Without a valid visa, airlines deny boarding upon check-in.
Vietnam entry requirements China Taiwan Hong Kong – China ordinary passport rules:
❌ Entry without a visa: NO
❌ No-Vietnam e-visa eligibility: NO
✅ Visa required before departure: YES
Hong Kong SAR Passport
The easiest process is for Hong Kong travelers. Whether for business or for tourism, the electronic visa is the basic route to go.

Tip: Make sure your photo is of good quality (especially no glasses, white background) to avoid the "4-7 day delay" for further review.
Vietnam entry requirements for China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong ordinary passports:
❌ Visa-free entry: NO
⚠️ Vietnam E-visa eligibility: DEPENDS on the type of passport, as well as the system
✅ Visa Required Before Travel: YES
Upon using it, however, a number of travelers have observed that "Hong Kong appears as Chinese" in nationality fields
This is normal under the official immigration policy in Vietnam, but it must be handled properly to avoid rejection.
Taiwan Passport
Taiwanese citizens come into the category of people who can get e-visas, but in that matter also, the system becomes quite strict as it has to match the name format and passport number.
-
Pro Tip: Most of the travelers from Taiwan still prefer the Visa on Arrival (VOA) via an approval letter for urgent business trips; however, eVisa is a better option since sometimes it's processed even faster than the standard VOA.
Here are some real reviews from our Chinese and Taiwanese customers:
Vietnam E-visa Eligible Ordinary Passport Taiwan:
❌ Visa-free entry: NO
✅ Is the Vietnamese E-Visa eligible: YES
✅ Online application available: YES
Taiwan passport holders are eligible to apply for a Vietnam Electronic Visa (Single or Multiple Entries)
Processing is faster and simpler than embassy applications
⚠️ Common mistake: If the name order or the middle name is incorrect → Visa approved, visa denied on arrival
Why Many Travelers Get Rejected (The "Hidden Traps")
Even with the changes made in 2026, the Vietnam Immigration system is by no means forgiving. One typo can lead to an application receiving a "Denied" status with no refund. Based on the information received, the top 5 reasons for denial of the visa application for travelers coming from China, HK, and Taiwan:
1. The "ICAO Line" Name Mismatch
2. Misunderstanding Vietnam E-visa Eligibility (The "E-Passport" Issue)
3. Incorrect Nationality Selection
4. Poor Quality of Portrait, Bio-Page Scans
5. Applying Through "Ghost" Websites
These are small mistakes with big consequences.
