Vietnam aviation and digital identity guidance
Overview
Authorities in Vietnam have issued guidance regarding digital documentation and procedures for travelers. While the VNeID application allows citizens to manage personal documents digitally, officials clarified that the digital record cannot replace a physical passport for international travel. Travelers must present an original, valid passport at border checkpoints, as scanned images or data on VNeID are not accepted for entry or exit.
In conjunction with digital document management, aviation security forces are recommending the use of online check-in services to reduce terminal congestion. While digital services allow passengers to obtain electronic boarding passes, travelers are reminded that they must still adhere to airline schedules and allow sufficient time for baggage and security screenings.
