On the afternoon of August 22, at the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in response to a reporter's question about the British media reporting that the country had warned that citizens coming to Vietnam could be banned from leaving the country or have their passports confiscated, Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Pham Thu Hang said: "We completely reject such false information. Vietnam's consistent policy is to always facilitate foreigners' entry, exit, and residence in Vietnam, thereby contributing to economic and social development.

In recent times, Vietnamese authorities have implemented many measures to facilitate travel for foreign citizens coming to Vietnam for the purposes of studying, working, investing, market research and tourism in accordance with Vietnamese law.
