Earlier, the CAAV has asked the Vietnam Air Traffic Management Corporation (VATM) to issue a Notice To Airmen (NOTAM) on the lifting of all restrictions on international flights from February 15, returning to the normal situation as before the outbreak of COVID-19.
According to the authority, limits on the number of inbound and outbound international flights in Vietnam will be removed. Meanwhile, regulations on entry and pandemic prevention and control for passengers entering Vietnam will continue to be implemented in line with guidelines of the Ministry of Public Security, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Ministry of Health, it said.
Except China, all the countries receiving Vietnam’s proposal have agreed to restore the aviation links with Vietnam.
Currently, air routes linking Vietnam and European countries, Australia and the U.S. have been resumed. However, Japan and the RoK have still applied restrictions on passengers from Vietnam as part of their efforts to prevent COVID-19 spreading.
