More Tips for a Smooth Arrival
A little extra knowledge goes a long way. Here are some final tips covering customs, transport, and more to ensure your arrival is seamless from start to finish.
Before you even leave for the airport, double-check that you have the correct visa type for your trip duration and nationality. Ensure your passport has at least 6 months’ validity. Any small error can cause major delays.
Be aware of Vietnam’s duty-free allowances (e.g., for alcohol and tobacco) to avoid fees. Strictly prohibited items include illegal drugs, weapons, and anti-government materials. Restricted items like prescription medications should be in their original packaging with a doctor’s note.
Lien Khuong Airport is 30km from Da Lat. To avoid hassle, pre-book your transport. Options include hotel pickups, private cars, or using a ride-hailing app like Grab. This is especially useful for late-night arrivals.
