Allant au Vietnam un mois en août-septembre avec un visa à entrée unique, je voudrais savoir s'il est possible de sortir du Vietnam pour une semaine pour aller au Cambodge en bateau par le Mékong et de revenir ensuite à Saigon pour l'avion.
Le visa aller retour peut il être pris à Saigon ?
Urgent car départ imminent.
D'avance merci
Il me semble que le visa unique pour le Vietnam doit être fait avant d'arriver au Vietnam. Le visa n'est pas délivré à la frontière.
Si tu prend l'avion pour le Cambodge le visa te sera délivré à ton arrivée pour 20 $US et une photo d'identité (si pas de photo c'est 5 $US de plus).
Si tu prends le bateau pour aller du Vietnam au Cambodge, il n'est pas sûr que le visa d'entrée au Cambodge te soit délivré cela va dépendre du poste frontière avec le bateau (le prévoir à l'avance).
Par contre, il te faudra un autre visa fait à l'avance (par exemple au Cambodge) pour pouvoir revenir au Vietnam, si j'ai bonne mémoire, il n'est pas délivré à la frontière du Vietnam.
A faire confirmer par les experts de VF où regarde dans les sujets précédent avec la fonction rechercher.
il faut tout simplement demander un visa multi entrées à l'ambassade en France AVANT
contrairement au Laos et cambodge ou les visa sont donnés a l'arrivée, pour le Vietnam il faut la demande avant
malheureusement le visa a paris est hors de prix ( je crois dqu'un simple entrée vaut déjà dans les 80 USd )
il est possible de demander un simple entrée à bangkok par ex ( nettement moins cher) mais je n'ai jamais fait la demande d'un multi-entrée a BKK et ne pourrait le garantir
passer par une agence basée sur place ( et obtenir la lettre de police ) ets la solution de tres lon la moin chère ( de l'ordre de 25 USD le simple entrée) mais ne convient pas forcement à tous les cas
Bonjour,
Je vais vous répondre de façon très précise :
1°) Aucun problème pour le Cambodge. Le visa peut être pris à la frontière moyennant une somme de 25 USD et deux photos.
2°) Comme vous avez un visa simple (1 entrée et 1 sortie) pour le Vietnam, vous devrez demander sur place au Vietnam, un autre visa par l'intermédiaire d'un agence de voyage qui le fera à votre place. Vous devrez avoir ce visa avant de partir au Cambodge si vous voulez vous retourner au Vietnam. Prévoir quand même un délai pour ce visa ( environ 24h à 48h).
Cordialement
Merci de ta réponse qui nous intéresse beaucoup.
Nous souhaiterions remonter le Mékong en fin de séjour du Vietnam jusqu'à Phnom Penh.
Mais nous n'avons qu'un visa à entrée unique France / Vietnam du 23/8 au 20/9 avec l' obligation d'être de retour à HCMV le 20/9 pour prendre l'avion.
Nous ne pourrons donc le faire que si nous avons la certitude que c'est possible.
Penses-tu que ton expérience peut s'appliquer à notre cas ?
Nous partons ce vendredi.
Quand vous aurez remontez le mékong jusqu'à Phnom penh vous pourrez aller à l'ambassade du vietnam, et faire le visa en arrivant pour repartir il y a des bus directs de PP jusqu'à HCM le visa est 35 dollars par personne à PP
visa a la frontiere, guide touristique peut vous aider.
tarif de visa : 25 dollards
service de voyage faite : 28 dollards a saigon.
vous pouvez faire un circuit de delta du mekong et puis depart en bateau pour phnom penh
et puis vous pouvez acheter un billet d'avion au cambodge
bon voyage
Excusez moi, je pense ne pas être au bon endroit dans le forum...mais je n'ai pas encore découvert comment on fait pour démarrer une discussion...... si quelqu'un peut me renseigner....
Voilà l'objet de ma visite...Ne désirant entrer en Thailande que le 15/10, j'envisage de faire un petit trip Vietnam / Cambodge avant de passer en Thailande.Je ne fais que passer puisque le retour se faite de Bangkok.
Comment cela se passe au niveau des transports au vietnam et au Cambodge ? Plus concrètement, quels sont les moyens pour rejoindre Phnom penh en partant de Ho chi minh ( bus, Location de voiture avec / sans chauffeur ) et cout ( approximatif ) de ces transports.
Dans l'éventualité d'une voiture avec chauffeur, celui ci peut il traverser la frontière et me conduire à PP?
Le passage de la frontière entre le Vietnam et le Cambodge ne pose t'il pas de problème?
Le visa pour entrer au Cambodge peut il s'acheter à la frontière ou faut il l'acheter à l'ambassade ici en France ou encore par internet via E-visa?
Idem pour le visa d'entrée au Viet nam....Celui ci peut il être délivré à l'arrivée ou faut il l'obtenir à l'ambassde avant?
Concernant les transports au Cambodge, même question que précédemment, quels sont les possibilités pour rejoindre la Thailande? ( bus, voiture avec ou sans chauffeur.....)
Pour entrer en Thailande, quel est le poste frontière habilité pour me tamponner mon visa long séjour O/A?
Y a t'il un point de passage ou cela ne peut se faire?
Même question que pour le vietnam... le chauffeur a t'il la possibilité de me conduire en Thailande .. BURIRAM pour être plus précis?
Enfin... dernière question... mon amie est Thailandaise...Elle me dit que pour ses déplacements en Asie.. pas de problème...!!!! A t'elle besoin ele aussi de visas pour le vietnam et le Cambodge?
Beaucoup de questions mais je ne veux pas avoir de mauvaises surprises....... pour moi, ces déplacement "individuels" sont tout nouveau alors si certaines questions vous sembles puériles.... soyez indulgents ..
le visa cambodgien s obtient pour 20$ a l aeroport une taxe de depart plus cher est aussi a aquiter quand on sort du pays, par les frontiere terestre avec la thailande, le cours du dollars s effondre et les 20 usd se transforment en 1500 voir 2000 baths suivant si c est par trat ou poipet ( plus cher a trat )
poul l arrivee par la frontiere vietnamienne je supose que les cours du usd s ffondrent aussi
c est du racket mais y a pas trop moyen d y echapper et c est du racket aussi de payer un visa 60 euros a paris
voila il vaut mieux le savoir avant, en cas de manque de liquide ils vous laisseront re rentrer du pays d origine au moins pour aller au DAB en retenant votre passeport.

Hi everyone,
I have to leave for Perth, Australia in a week, for 7 days, and I couldn’t get my international driver’s permit due to processing and delivery delays.
The information I’ve found about whether an international permit is required is contradictory. Some sources say you need one, others say you don’t.
Could anyone let me know if an international driver’s permit is necessary to rent a car in Australia (Perth), or if a French license is enough for a 7-day rental?
hi everyone,
I need to apply for a new eTA for Canada.
do I need the number from my old eTA or not?
because I can’t find my old eTA number anymore.
thanks for your replies, have a great weekend
Hi there,
I know there are similar topics here and elsewhere, but they’re a few years old, and I need an up-to-date answer to make sure I don’t throw over 1000 € out the window. Thanks for your patience.
I’m planning a trip from France to Alberta/British Columbia, and I’m unsure about which bank card to use for the security deposit with the rental company (I’m thinking of going with AVIS).
I contacted Avis Canada, and they told me a credit card is absolutely required. I asked my bank for a credit card (a *real* credit card), but they only offered me a deferred debit card.
My question: For a rental with Avis Canada, is a Gold International Mastercard deferred debit card usable for the security deposit needed to finalize the rental? Is the "CREDIT" label enough? (Some cards say "CREDIT" and others say "CARTE DE CREDIT"—seems minor, but it’s actually a big deal in how the card works.)
I’ve seen conflicting info everywhere I look... My bank says it’s *usually* okay (the deferred debit card), while Avis Canada insists it *must* be a credit card, not debit—even when I mention the deferred debit card.
I know the whole credit card concept is already confusing, and on top of that, some sites say a deferred debit card counts as a credit card, while others say it doesn’t.
Thanks to anyone who can share a recent experience!
Have a great day
Hello everyone,
Could a resident of Benin (Cotonou) kindly let me know which is the best mobile phone and internet service provider?
Thank you very much,

Hi,
I’m bringing Seresta, an anxiolytic (tranquilizer) from the benzodiazepine family,
to help me sleep.
I’ll have the prescription with me.
Will this be a problem at customs, and do I need to declare it?
Same question for antibiotics?
Thanks a bunch!
Hi everyone,
I’ll explain my situation.
Unfortunately, I lost my passport, and I only realized it two weeks before my departure for a humanitarian mission in Libya. I’m a nurse, and this mission really means a lot to me.
First, I applied for an emergency passport, but it was denied by the Val-d'Oise prefecture on the grounds that a planned humanitarian mission wasn’t considered an urgent reason.
So, I submitted a biometric passport application on July 20th. Since then, the tracking has been stuck, and the town hall can’t (or won’t) give me any clear information. Every time I call, I get a different story. The last update I received was that the passport had been produced since July 23rd with a status of "about to be shipped," but nothing since then.
I’ve managed to push my departure back to next Tuesday at the latest, but I’m starting to really panic.
Have any of you submitted an application around July 20th, especially in Val-d'Oise (95)? How long did you wait between the passport being produced and it being available at the town hall? Is it normal for this step to take this long?
This mission means so much to me. I had everything organized, and I’m also supposed to attend a friend’s wedding right after near the border.
Thanks so much to those who take the time to respond or share their experience. 😔
Can anyone tell me exactly if a passport "valid for the duration of the stay" is enough, or does it need to be valid for 6 months after the trip?
I checked the embassy’s website, but that info is missing.
Hi there,
I’ll be arriving in Seoul on November 18th after spending about a month in India.
Do you know if I’ll need to fill out any additional documents besides the e-arrival card?
Thanks in advance for your tips!
I’m a bit embarrassed because I need to travel to Quebec from February 27th to March 13th. I’m a regular visitor to Canada—this will be my 10th trip since 1997, plus a year as a permanent resident (2000–2001) and a cross-country run from Vancouver to Halifax in 2011. So, I’m definitely not a terrorist!
But since our last trip in July 2015, they’ve introduced this eTA thing. Seems more like a way to make money than to actually secure Canada, if you ask me, but anyway, that’s not the point.
I applied for an eTA for myself, my wife, and our two kids. They all got approved within hours, but not me! I was asked to create a GC key and then an IRCC account, which I did. Normally, you get news within 72 hours, but since Monday, January 15th, nothing!
In the "message" section of the account, it says "explanation letter (required)" with a deadline of January 25th, but I can’t find any explanation anywhere—despite searching the Canadian government website and Google. No links, nothing!
I’ve emailed them but haven’t heard back yet. I’m thinking of calling the Canadian embassy in Paris tomorrow. Even though I’m not stressing yet, it’d be a bummer if everyone else got to go without me!
If anyone’s had this issue before or knows what this explanation letter is about, I’d love to hear more.
hi there
I’m heading to Seoul in September, and to do that I need to get a travel authorization that we apply for through K-ETA....... turns out I can (barely, I admit) fill out the form up to the address of our "stay location," but every address I’ve entered has been rejected by the system. I’ve tried my hotel, the Lotte Hotel (which is well-known in Seoul), the airport—basically, I’ve entered at least 20 addresses, all rejected....
So, to anyone who’s successfully gotten the authorization, could you tell me which address you used to get that "elusive" approval?...
Hi there,
I’m heading to Senegal in January for a month and was wondering if I just need my French driver’s license or if I should get an international permit?
Thanks!

I’m heading to Laos next spring, but I have a question about the Thai arrival/departure form. I’ll be flying PAR-BKK, then taking the train to Laos (so exiting Thailand), and later re-entering Thailand by train to catch my return flight. Do I need to fill out two forms in this case?
Hi there,
I have a 9-seater passenger vehicle that I use for my business in Paris, transporting people.
I’m planning to go to Algeria with my family.
The vehicle registration lists my company as the owner.
Can I get a TPD (Temporary Admission Document)?
Will I need a KBis extract or a power of attorney?!?
Thanks for your help.
Worst case, I can add my personal name as a co-owner on the registration, but that would be a real shame!
Hi,
I’m writing to ask for some info—I’ve heard that you **must** have travel insurance to land in Zanzibar.
What’s the process, and which insurance should I get?
Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Best,

Hi, are there any travelers who’ve recently crossed the border between Karakalpakstan (Uzbekistan) and Beineu in Kazakhstan?
It was closed for a while.
Thanks for any info!
I bought a one-way flight (Ryanair) and a return flight (EasyJet) to spend a week in Morocco in April.
My passport expires 3 weeks after the return date.
Some websites say the passport must be valid for 3 months at the time of entry.
However, it will still be valid both on entry and return, but its validity will only be 1 month at the time of entry (and 3 weeks on the return date, everything prepaid).
It's an individual family trip.
The consulate can't give me an answer—they're still looking into it (really!)
Last year, we stayed for 3 months in Thailand, north of Khao Lak, and were able to benefit from the 2-month visa exemption, renewable for one month by going to Takua Pa to validate a 1-month extension (1,900 baht).
This year, it’s a disaster for us—not only were we planning a 4-month stay, adding a visa run in between (which some say is quite risky), but the law is apparently changing in the coming months with the return of the 1-month exemption (plus the usual 1-month option). So, we looked into applying for a 6-month multiple-entry visa, allowing a maximum of 60 consecutive days in Thailand. However, I can’t find anywhere the minimum time required outside Thailand between two stays—do any of you have an idea?
Thanks for the info! If you’d like tips on Khao Lak and the surrounding areas, we’ve got some experience, though things change fast!
Cheers,
Bruno.
My partner, our 8-year-old daughter, and I are going on vacation to Gex.
We’ve decided to spend one day in Switzerland and another in Italy. Will we need ID (national ID card or passport)? Do we also need ID for our daughter?
Hello,
We’ll soon be moving to Madagascar long-term.
As a French national, I need to obtain a short-stay visa that can be converted to a long-stay one. To do this, I have to send the required documents to the Madagascar embassy in Paris.
No issues with that procedure so far.
If I get this visa, once I arrive in Madagascar, I’ll need to provide the same documents to the Ministry of the Interior in Anosy. I’m trying to find an email address or website for the Ministry to check which documents I need to submit (I think they ask for additional ones).
If you have any info on this, I’d appreciate your replies.
Best regards,
M. Buisson Eric
I’d like to know if anyone has already applied for a private visa to Russia with an invitation from a Russian resident.
I traveled earlier this year with an e-visa, but since I want to stay longer, I’ll be visiting my friend who lives in eastern Russia.
For the visa application, does the invitation need to be on an official paper form issued by the Russian ministry? And most importantly, do I need to present the original for the application, or is there an electronic version that can be sent directly to the consulate in France?
Thanks for any info if you’ve gone through this process before!
I filled out the B2 form to apply for a visa, created an account on Atvis to pay the visa fees and schedule a meet-up, but every time I try to pay with my Boursobank Visa 1st card, they refuse the payment with a message telling me to check my details (address), even though everything is correct. Does anyone know why this is happening, or maybe they don’t accept Visa cards? Are you aware of this?
Thanks for your feedback!
Elisabeth
There are rumors going around about the ETA: it must absolutely be on your smartphone in the "ETA" app.
Paper documents might not be accepted.
Is this real or just a hoax?
Thanks, I’m leaving in 3 weeks. My passport is good to go and my ETA is still valid for a year, but I only printed the email I received.
Thanks everyone.
Hi there,
We need to apply for a B2 visa because we visited Iran in 2018. It currently costs $185, but they’re planning an additional $250 fee per person for the same visa—it’s been approved but not yet implemented. Does anyone know when this fee will take effect?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
In November, we're heading off on a 4-month trip. We'll be landing in China and plan to leave the country via a land border into Vietnam.
I’ve read that China may ask for proof of exit within 30 days (flight ticket or other reservation). Since we’d be leaving by land, I’m wondering how this works in practice.
Has anyone here been in this situation recently?
Did the airline ask for an exit ticket before boarding?
Did Chinese authorities require proof upon arrival?
Is a train/bus ticket to Vietnam sufficient?
Is a cancelable or flexible reservation accepted?
Hi there,
Just a question that’s probably been asked before (though usually the other way around for my situation :))
My wife and I are heading to the US.
On her ticket, it only has her maiden name (e.g., Martine DUPOND).
On her passport, it’s written as Martine DUPOND épouse AVRY.
No issues for travel, I hope I did the right thing with the ticket?
Then for the ESTA, is just Martine DUPOND enough, or do I need to include the "épouse AVRY" part like on the passport?
Thanks in advance!
Hi there,
I’m spending a few days in San Pedro de Atacama (Chile) and would like to cross the Argentine border to make a loop toward Salta and then return to Chile to drop off the rental car.
I’ve heard that crossing the border can be tricky!
Is it possible with a rental company’s authorization? Which company, and at what cost?
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
Best regards,
Arnale
I saw on the French Embassy in Peru’s website and the Peruvian Consulate in Paris’s site that the rule is to have a passport valid for 6 months *after the arrival date* (not the return date).
I arrive in Peru on August 13, 2019 (for about twelve days), and my passport is valid until February 16, 2020.
That’s 6 months and 3 days after my arrival date in Peru. In my opinion, I’m good to go.
But could I still be denied entry if they say I don’t cover the return date or that I’m too close to the 6-month mark?
I read on the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs website that it’s possible to apply for a temporary driving permit in China, valid for 1 month.
I’m planning to rent a car (without a driver) to explore part of the country next August, so I was wondering:
Has anyone here already gone through this process upon arrival?
How long do the formalities take on the spot?
Is it possible to handle these steps in advance, before arriving in China?
