Figures from the General Statistics Office on October 6 showed that in the first nine months of the year, South Korea was the largest market sending visitors to Vietnam with 3.3 million arrivals. Mainland China ranked second with 2.7 million arrivals. The total number of visitors from these two markets reached 6 million, accounting for nearly 48% of the 12.7 million arrivals to Vietnam in the first three quarters of the year.

In the top 10 markets sending visitors to Vietnam, in addition to long-distance visitors such as the US and Australia, there are also visitors from Southeast Asia such as Thailand, Cambodia, and Malaysia.

According to the National Tourism Administration, Northeast Asia is the main driver of international visitor growth. Mainland China increased by 141%, Taiwan (China) increased by nearly 66%, South Korea increased by more than 30%, and Japan increased by nearly 30% compared to the same period in 2023.

Important markets in Europe all grew in the first 9 months of the year. British visitors increased by nearly 20%, French by more than 28%, German by more than 23%, Italian by 55%, Spanish by nearly 25%, Russian by 80%, Danish by 22%, and Swedish by nearly 23%. These are all markets that enjoy a unilateral visa exemption policy for entry into Vietnam with a temporary stay of up to 45 days, effective from August 15, 2023.

In terms of post-pandemic recovery, India is one of the markets that has recovered the most in the first 9 months of the year, at more than 300% compared to the same period in 2019. Most Southeast Asian markets have recovered well: Cambodia recovered 300%, Indonesia reached 171%, Laos reached 155%, Philippines reached 134%, Singapore reached 112% compared to the same period in 2019. Thailand and Malaysia only had lower recovery rates, at 87% and 82% respectively.

Europe has seen a near-pre-pandemic recovery in major markets such as Spain with a 103% recovery, Italy with a 120% recovery, Germany with a 107% recovery, and the UK and France with nearly 100%. The US market has surpassed 2019 levels, reaching 102%, and Australia with a 122% recovery.

The number of international visitors to Vietnam has grown positively in the first 9 months of 2024, with most markets fully recovering, and some markets even increasing sharply compared to the same period in 2019, according to the National Tourism Administration. The agency also predicts that with the current growth momentum, Vietnam will achieve its target of welcoming 17-18 million international visitors this year.
