In other words, citizens from coronavirus-hit areas have to cope with visa restrictions as Vietnam highly aims to stamp out the viral outbreak.
As “the outbreak is spreading rapidly, and in a serious manner,” the Government said, even the cross-border trade between Vietnam and China is not encouraged at the moment. Imports and exports in most border gates between Vietnam and China in the northern province of Lang Son have been halted until February 9.
So far, there has been no new official announcement on removing the Vietnam visa application restriction for Chinese.

When there are signs of coronavirus infection such as fever or cough, travelers may have to go on the isolation.
