Several countries across Asia are ramping up health screening as of late May, specifically targeting arrivals from DRC and Uganda with quarantine periods hitting 21 days in Thailand and Vietnam.
Vietnam's requiring a health declaration form for anyone flying in, out, or even connecting through as of July 2026. It's not about vaccines specifically anymore, despite what the headline suggests. You're filling out a form about your health status, not proving shots. The form's straightforward enough, but here's the catch: they're asking about communicable diseases and recent symptoms. So if you've got anything dodgy going on, you declare it. No vaccination mandate per se, but they reserve the right to deny entry based on health grounds.
