Another, slightly more complex Yes or No Question

Got friends coming over in a couple of weeks; they're here for five days before flying to Australia.

Do they need to do anything before arriving (UK Passport Holders) or will they be allowed straight through customs as long as they show proof of the ongoing flight?

Visas. Until 30 June 2018 'British Citizen' passport holders travelling for tourism or business can enter Vietnam for up to a maximum of 15 days (inclusive of dates of entry and exit) without a visa.

It's not the travellers who have to worry about the landing card.  If the flight attendants don't give it out, then it's not needed.

The flight attendants on all the flights we've taken (4 entries to VN just in the last 15 months alone) asked everyone's nationality, and based on the answer, they either gave out the landing card or skipped that passenger and went to the next person.

Perfect. Thanks all once more!
