The rest of the trip for a Singaporean passport, from the arrival form to customs and travelling with children: Vietnam entry requirements.

Worth knowing

The details for a Singaporean passport.

Visa-free up to 30 days per entry (Singapore MFA, updated 10 Oct 2026); admission is at the discretion of Vietnamese immigration. Entering on a separately issued visa may give a shorter stay. Pre-arrival declaration required when entering via Tan Son Nhat (HCMC).

Your passport

How long it must be valid.

At least 6 months remaining from the date of arrival (FCDO, US State Dept); Canada says 6 months beyond your expected departure, so allow for that. Enter and exit on the same passport; damaged passports have led to refused entry or exit. Taiwan MOFA notes a visa's validity must end at least 30 days before the passport expires.
