Those who test positive for SARS-CoV-2 will be monitored and treated in accordance with COVID-19 prevention and control regulations.
The move is aimed at attracting more tourists from this East Asia country.
Da Nang is focusing on restoring key markets that have open-door policies including the RoK, Japan and India.
The Representative Office of the Korea National Administration of Tourism in Vietnam has announced the latest instructions on entry procedures and quarantine exemption when entering the RoK, which requires people who enter the RoK starting from June 1 to have a negative PCR result within 48 hours or a COVID-19 rapid antigen test conducted within 24 hours before departure. They are also required to take PCR tests in the RoK within three days upon entry.
