In addition, domestic airlines are required to not sell tickets for those who do not meet the requirements stipulated in the Ministry of Transport’s regulations.
COVID-19 testing is compulsory for arriving and departing air passengers who do not have proof of a negative test result within 72 hours of their departure/arrival in Da Nang in line with the Ministry of Transport’s regulations, and they must pay for COVID-19 testing. In addition, travellers from other parts of the country will be required to have their body temperature checked and fill in a COVD-19 declaration form at the Da Nang Airport.
