This is on the basis of a direction by the Prime Minister and the current situation of the pandemic in the country, and applicable at all of Viet Nam’s border gates starting from 00:00 on April 27, it said.
Therefore, all people entering Viet Nam to participate in the 31st SEA Games will not have to make COVID-19 health declaration, the general department noted.
The biennial regional sports event, featuring 40 sports, is scheduled to take place in Ha Noi and 11 nearby localities from May 12 to 23.
It was initially slated for late 2021 but delayed due to the pandemic.
