Digital payments are growing in popularity among consumers in Vietnam, with wider use of online cards, mobile wallets, and QR payments last year compared to 2021, a Visa study has found.
Vietnam welcomed 71.8 million visitors in the first seven months of 2022, exceeding the annual target. There were only 954,600 international arrivals, however, or just 15 per cent of the targeted 5 million for the year. One solution to increase international tourist numbers is to apply multiple entry and exit visas valid for 30 days, instead of 15 days as currently.
