entry paperwork for Philippines and Vietnam

[brums evil twin]

Off to Manila on Monday - they have an online entry form from what I can see (have I got that right??? You get a QR code to show at immigration)

What about Vietnam - use to be a paper form on arrival and show your outbound flight ticket - Anything changed??

No visa needed as I am only in both for under two weeks

Anyone landed recently??

Thanks

You don’t need anything for Vietnam, if uk passport holder.

Make sure your passport is undamaged they can get really funny over that!!

For Philippines - yes - just the online entry form and show the QR code either one your phone or printed - or both.
Make sure you have at least 6 months left on your passport too.

Make sure you have a copy of your return ticket details too again either printed or on your phone - they rarely ask to see it but I was asked last time I went (3 months ago).

Beware of the scam sites for the Philippines entry - use the link in U.K. Gov site - there is no fee.

I usually travel to Asia on a one way ticket but am always prepared to buy a throwaway onward ticket to somewhere like Kuala Lumpur if I am challenged and I make sure I am aware of the current cheapest destination and timing in case I have to buy one at check in.

thanks for confirming that I was right - not been for a few years and wanted to double check

No scam sites for me - always use the links from the .gov site

For a UK passport holder you can have 45 days visa free for Vietnam now. It may be the case that you might have to show an onward flight for when you leave the country but not 100% sure on that.
