Visas for Vietnam and Cambodia

Thank you for choosing AmaWaterways! A once-in-a-lifetime journey aboard the beautiful AmaDara in Vietnam and Cambodia is closely approaching. We kindly ask all traveling guests to carefully read the following information to ensure their reservation has been finalized accordingly.

1) Passport validity and accuracy of passport names must be confirmed at initial payment

All guests must have the correct name(s) exactly as it appears on the passport. This will ensure Your Entry Visa to Vietnam and Intra-Asia Air is ticketed and issued correctly. It also avoids declined entry to Vietnam or any airline imposed change fees for you should the name on the air tickets not match your FULL name shown on your passport. Travelers that obtain their visas for Vietnam and Cambodia prior to departing from home must ensure their passports have at least FOUR empty visa labeled pages and are valid for at least SIX months from the date of entry to Vietnam or Cambodia.

2) Visa for Vietnam and Cambodia

Travelers from North America need separate visas to enter both Vietnam and Cambodia.
