Vietnam welcomes 10.7 million international visitors, revenue of nearly 410,000 billion VND

Compared to the same period last year, the number of international visitors to Vietnam in the past 6 months has increased by 21%, proving the growing appeal of domestic destinations to foreign tourists. With 10.7 million arrivals, this number has increased by more than 26% compared to the same period in 2019 - the golden time of Vietnam tourism before the Covid-19 pandemic.

Compared to the target of 23 million international visitors in 2025, this figure has only reached 49%. However, experts are still optimistic that Vietnam's tourism will really accelerate in the last months of the year, when international visitors will flock to travel during the winter holidays.
