Visa Information
Most international tourists visiting Bali, including Indians, can obtain a 30-day Visa on Arrival (VoA) (code B1) for tourism, which is extendable once for another 30 days, can be obtained at the airport or online (e-VoA) beforehand, and requires a passport valid for at least six months.
Health and Safety Tips
Vietnam is generally a very safe country for travelers, with low rates of violent crime, making it popular for solo and female travelers.
Currency and Tipping
The currency in Vietnam is the Vietnamese Dong (VND), operating entirely on cash banknotes (1,000–500,000 VND), with no coins in circulation. Tipping is not mandatory or part of the culture but is becoming common for good service in tourist areas, with 5-10% in restaurants or small tips for guides/drivers appreciated.
