As the nation ‘stays at home’ to avoid the spread of COVID-19, the department office will close from April 2 until further notice, according to a source from the department.
However, if a visa belonging to any foreigner staying in Vietnam right now expires while their offices are closed, the holder will not be penalised.
Instead, visas can be renewed when the office reopens.
No date for the reopening has been confirmed as it depends on the COVID-19 pandemic situation, the source said./.VNA
