International arrivals to Viet Nam up 14.5 per cent
Viet Nam's tourism sector maintained strong growth in the first nine months of 2026, welcoming 17.68 million international visitors, up 14.5 per cent year on year. The growth was supported by a safe and secure environment, favourable visa policies, stronger tourism promotion, diverse tourism products, and Vietnam's appeal in terms of natural landscapes, culture, cuisine and competitive travel costs.
