Russian tourists made more than 800 thousand trips to Vietnam in 2026

Russian tourists made more than 800 thousand trips to Vietnam in 2026. This was stated by Russian President Vladimir Putin following a conversation with his Vietnamese colleague To Lam, TASS writes.

Thus, the Russian leader noted the growing popularity of the country among Russians. “In 2025, almost 700 thousand Russians visited Vietnamese resorts, and in the first six months of this year, the number of tourist trips to the republic exceeded 800 thousand,” Putin said.

He attributed the growth in tourism to the fact that Russians do not need to obtain a visa before traveling to the country.
