The representative of the General Statistics Office said that favorable visa policies, enhanced tourism promotion programs, and prestigious tourism awards presented by international organizations have attracted an increasing number of international visitors to Vietnam.

Regarding the target of Vietnam welcoming 17-18 million international visitors in 2024, the representative of the General Statistics Office said that to achieve the target of welcoming 17 million international visitors, in the last 3 months of 2024, it is necessary to reach nearly 4.3 million visitors, an average of more than 1.43 million visitors/month. Because the fourth quarter of each year is the peak season for international tourists, the target of welcoming 17 million international visitors to Vietnam is feasible, under the condition that the world and domestic situation does not have any adverse changes.
