Required Health Checks for Vietnam Visa Applications
When applying for a Vietnam visa, certain health checks are required to ensure the safety and well-being of both the applicant and the Vietnamese population. These health checks are necessary to prevent the spread of contagious diseases and to protect public health. AGT services can assist you in understanding and completing the required health checks for your Vietnam visa application.
Before submitting your visa application, it is important to undergo the following health checks:
- 1. Medical examination: A comprehensive medical examination is required to assess your overall health and detect any underlying medical conditions. This examination includes a physical examination, blood tests, and possibly additional tests such as X-rays or ultrasounds.
- 2. Tuberculosis (TB) screening: As tuberculosis is a prevalent disease in Vietnam, all visa applicants are required to undergo TB screening. This typically involves a chest X-ray or a Mantoux tuberculin skin test.
- 3. HIV testing: HIV testing is mandatory for long-term visa applicants (over 90 days) and those planning to work or study in Vietnam. The test should be conducted at an accredited medical facility.
- 4. Vaccinations: Depending on your travel history and the duration of your stay in Vietnam, certain vaccinations may be required. Common vaccinations include hepatitis A and B, typhoid, and tetanus-diphtheria.
It is important to complete these health checks before submitting your visa application, as failure to do so may result in delays or rejection of your application. AGT services can guide you through the process and ensure that all necessary health checks are completed accurately and on time.
