What is a Visa Run?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A visa run is the act of leaving a country to extend your stay, and then returning immediately. This often happens when you are in a country where your visa is short or not enough for you to continue exploring. Imagine you are on a beautiful beach and only have a few days left to leave, but you want to stay a little longer \u2013 that is when a visa run becomes the ideal solution!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vietnam Visa Run can currently be divided into two popular forms:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Visa by air:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> foreigners can exit Vietnam to a third country by air. This is also the most popular form of Vietnam Visa Run.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Vietnam Visa Run by road<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: foreigners can only go to neighboring countries bordering Vietnam such as Laos or Cambodia and then have to re-enter Vietnam at that border gate. This is a way to save costs.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3159 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/en.muinexpress.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/1687967764-1791631902-visa-run-vi-t-nam-visa-run-vi-t-nam-la-gi.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"592\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.muinexpress.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/1687967764-1791631902-visa-run-vi-t-nam-visa-run-vi-t-nam-la-gi.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/en.muinexpress.vn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/1687967764-1791631902-visa-run-vi-t-nam-visa-run-vi-t-nam-la-gi-18x10.jpg 18w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 592px) 100vw, 592px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><b>2.
