IMPORTANT NOTE – VISA EXEMPTION FOR OTHER NATIONALITIES. See the following but note timescales is short.
Not just exemption for UK – see the following:
The visa exemption for
British, German, French, Spanish and Italian citizens travelling to Vietnam for a period of up to 15 days (single entry and not returning within 30 days) is applied from 01 July 2015 to 30 June 2016. Up to now, the Embassy has not received any information on extension of this policy.

Further to our recent posts regarding Australian cattle being killed by the use of sledgehammers in Vietnam, we now send out an important message to all UK residents.
We understand from our friends at Animals Australia, that Vietnam wants more United Kingdom residents to visit. In fact, they’ve just waived VISA requirements hoping you do.
They consider UK visitors important – so we need UK residents to act now.
The Vietnamese government will be very sensitive to feedback from you (UK residents) about the brutal sledgehammering to death of animals in their slaughterhouses as exposed by AA.

UK residents can send an e mail to the Vietnamese embassy in the UK, and also to the Vietnamese Tourist Board informing them that (you) will only ever visit nations that have full respect for animals; which does clearly NOT involve the use of sledgehammers for killing as exposed by AA.
Inform the Vietnamese that until they tidy up their act and treat animals respectfully and in accordance with 21st Century procedures, YOU WILL NEVER consider visiting Vietnam regardless of the VISA changes it has currently introduced.
E mail the following please:
London Embassy – consular@vietnamembassy.org.uk
Vietnamese Tourist Board – mkthcm@vietnamtourism.gov.vn
The message needs to be polite but a simple one –
abuse animals, no visit.
Change and expect future visits. Simple !!
