6 months valid passport on departure, what about the return?
Hello
I am planning a trip to Vietnam and thinking of applying for the visa on arrival option.
My passport will be valid for 6 months and 1 week from my actual day of arrival (in January).
However as I will be returning back from Vietnam to London, my passport will only be valid for 5 months and 2 weeks.
Will this be OK?
I have ready everywhere that you need 6 months validity on departure but there is no information about the requirement for the journey back...
Thanks a lot for your help

Hello,
I believe there is no problem at Vietnam airport since 1 month of validity afer your exit date is enough. However, most of the airlines will require 6 months of validity remaining on passport before they allow you to board the plane. I advise that you contact the airline that you fly with to verify about this information.
Have a good day.
