The EATOF is scheduled for October 25-27 with the theme "Tourism recovery in East Asia in the new normal era”. It was cancelled two years ago due to COVID-19 pandemic.
The event will feature an opening ceremony in both online and offline formats, three discussion sessions, a meeting of the EATOF Standing Committee, bilateral meetings, a meeting of provincial Governors, the signing ceremony of EATOF joint statement, and a press conference.
Delegates are also due to tour several tourist destinations in Ha Long and Cam Pha cities, and Van Don district.

The Department already received bilateral meeting proposals from member provinces such as Gangwon of the Republic of Korea, Siem Reap of Cambodia, and Sarawak of Malaysia.
According to the forum’s Secretariat, Gangwon and Sarawak are interested in discussing cooperation in chartered flights.
