The Thua Thien-Hue Provincial People’s Committee has launched a plan on receiving international vaccinated visitors, starting at the end of December 2021.

According to Deputy Chairman of the Thua Thien-Hue Provincial People’s Committee Nguyen Thanh Binh, the locality has approved a trial three-phase vaccine passport program for tourists from Europe, the U.S., Northeast and Southeast Asia, and Australia, which have high vaccination rates and controlled Covid-19 quite well.

Nguyen Van Phuc, Deputy head of the province's department for tourism, said, in the first phase of the program until January, visitors are required to book a tour with approved travel agencies, arrive in Hue by charter flights and stay at sequestered resorts.

In the two stage that will be carried out from the beginning of the first quarter of 2022, the province will receive foreign visitors of package tours or connection tours linking various tourist sites via charter flights departed from the localities where Government has approved an experimental program on welcoming back foreign tourists with vaccine passport.

A group of South Korean tourists are scheduled to arrive later this month and stay at the Angsana Lang Co Resort in Phu Loc District. In the second phase, starting February, visitors can also come by cruise ships and visit more destinations such as the Bach Ma National Park and heritage sites.

The tourism sector has been on the path of recovery after a period of "freezing" due to COVID-19. Many sites have welcomed a large number of visitors, especially as Christmas and New Year holiday is approaching.
