Welcome to What About Vietnam - A Travel Podcast with Kerry Newsome. If you have ever thought about Vietnam as a holiday destination, but unsure, well, this may be just the eye-opener you need to help you decide you must go. A cross between "Trip advisor and a blog" minus the 300 pages of reading, this podcast aims to give you insights into Vietnam from years of traveling to and from, and as a travel manager. My objective is to give you the information the guide books don't,.... in an easy to listen to, relatable format. Across this series, I will be your guide to "When and How" to travel throughout Vietnam. I will provide you with comprehensive information designed to make your trip fun, safe, and full of great adventures. You will hear from guest travellers about their experiences and the places they have visited. I interview locals, expats, travel experts and tour operators across the board. You never know who you are going to meet on the show, and that's what makes it interesting and entertaining.

Do I need a Visa to enter Vietnam? - What About Vietnam S6-E3
Episode 3
Monday, 9 February, 2026
Let’s start with one of the most important questions you need to answer before you get too far into booking or planning your trip to Vietnam.Why? Because this one question quietly underpins everything else. It sounds simple — but this is where so many people come unstuck.I can’t stress this enough: if you don’t ask yourself this question early, you can end up choosing the wrong visa, applying for something you didn’t need, or realising far too late that one small decision here has shaped your whole trip.And what is an eVisa? In this episode of What About Vietnam – One Question at a Time, I break down the “Visa Entry question” into clear, bite-size pieces. I’ll explain who actually needs a visa, who doesn’t, and I’ll walk you through how to apply for a Vietnam eVisa properly and what to double-check so it doesn’t derail your trip.If you’re coming from the UK, Europe, the US, Australia or elsewhere, the answer to the ultimate question here is: it depends!Some passports qualify for Vietnam’s 45-day visa-free entry, others don’t. Some trips work perfectly on visa-free. Others absolutely don’t.And then there’s the eVisa — which is simple, but also incredibly easy to mess up if you don’t pay attention to the details.In this episode, I walk you through:The most common eVisa mistakes I see:Wrong datesWrongly spelling, middle name missing on EVisa but is in PassportPassport details don’t matchWrong entry pointApplying too late (and panic-fixing it)This episode will help you:✅ Choose the right entry option for your trip✅ Avoid last-minute stress and costly mistakes✅ Start your Vietnam journey calm, confident, and preparedSo this is “cautious Kerry”, signing off on One Question at a time Series 6-Ep3Please take the time to explore the link to more information - https://www.whataboutvietnam.com/visa-info and for the direct link to the official Immigration site go here.
