    Viet Nam will grant entry visa exemptions for Russian citizens holding ordinary passports for visits of 15 days at the maximum as from January 1, 2009. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that Viet Nam will be the third country in Southeast Asia, after Thailand and Laos , to grant visa exemptions to Russian citizens. Beneficiaries must have valid passports and return tickets or tickets to go to other countries. If Russian citizens want to stay in Viet Nam more than 15 days they can apply for a visa with approval from the Ministry of Public Security or the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

    The visa exemption pact between Vietnam and Cambodia has been into force since December 4.
    According to the agreement which was signed in Hanoi on November 4, citizens of both countries with ordinary passports valid for at least six months can transit or stay in the other country for up to 14 days without having to get a visa.
