The number of international arrivals to Vietnam since the beginning of the year reached nearly 11,650 million, a 30% increase compared to the same period last year. The rise is seen in the number of visitors from Asian countries, such as China, South Korea, and Japan, with the highest growth rate of 55% for South Korea. Tourists from the UK, France, Germany, and Spain also saw a surge in number thanks to visa exemptions for stays that last no longer than 15 days. The total number of international arrivals to Vietnam this year is predicted to reach 12.8 million.
