The embassy said in its statement that as of March 24, Indonesia had recorded 686 infection cases, including 55 fatalities and 33 completely-recovered patients.

Amid complicated developments of the pandemic, the Vietnamese Government decided to temporarily suspend entry of all foreigners and suspend the validity of visa exemption certificates granted to all overseas Vietnamese and their relatives from 0:00 on March 22.

Other ASEAN countries such as Thailand, Singapore, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia and Indonesia have imposed travel restrictions, thus hampering the travel of Vietnamese citizens there.

Therefore, the embassy advised Vietnamese citizens in Indonesia to avoid non-essential travel back home during this time.

If a Vietnamese citizen desires to return home because of urgent reasons, he/she must fill in an online application form available on the embassy’s website. The embassy will review the request and coordinate with authorities of both sides to support him/her.

To seek help, Vietnamese citizens are advised to contact the embassy hotline: 62 8111 6025, e-mail Jakarta@mofa.gov.vn or the citizen protection call centre +84.981 84 84 84.
