Do Children of Hong Kong, Chinese, or Taiwanese Passport Holders Need a Visa for Vietnam? (2026 Guide)

Last Update: Tuesday February 10, 2026

Traveling to Vietnam with children is an exciting experience for many families across Hong Kong, Mainland China, and Taiwan. However, visa regulations for minors often cause confusion. One of the most frequently asked questions we receive at Vietnam-immi.org is:

Do children of Hong Kong, Chinese, or Taiwanese passport holders need a visa to enter Vietnam?

The answer is yes in most cases—and understanding the correct requirements is essential to avoid visa rejection, prevent document mistakes, and ensure a worry-free visa submission.

Do Children Need Their Own Vietnam Visa?

Children holding these passports are required to obtain a Vietnam visa. Visa requirements for minors are the same as for adults, and there are currently no standard visa exemptions for these passport holders traveling to Vietnam.

 Important: If a child has their own passport, they must apply for a separate Vietnam visa, regardless of age.

Required Documents for Mainland Chinese Children Entering Vietnam

To ensure a smooth immigration process at Vietnamese airports, please prepare the following documents for presentation at the landing visa counters:
