In early March 2022, the People's Committee of Binh Thuan issued a plan to welcome international tourists to Binh Thuan, with the aim of restoring the "smokeless industry" as well as related economic and service industries, according to the regulations approved by the Government. The procedure to lead international tourists back to Binh Thuan will follow special protocols to ensure safety and convenience for tourists, businesses and employees involved, etc. Previously, the local tourism industry also received positive signals when the whole province has more than 200 establishments (most of them are high-end accommodation establishments) qualified to welcome guests following the safety criteria on the Covid-19 prevention and control. Thanks to favorable weather, in only February 2022, Binh Thuan tourism welcomed approximately 332,800 visitors, up 25% compared to January and 13% over the same period last year. As for international visitors, in the first 2 months of the year, the number of foreign arrivals also increased compared to the same period last year, but the majority are specialists and foreigners working in Vietnam.

In response to the Provincial People's Committee’s plan, the appropriate authorities also promptly issued instructions to prepare for the procedure, taking one step at a time to recover the foreign tourist market. Accordingly, the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism announced that they allow tourism businesses to reopen and welcome international tourists from March 5, 2022 but must ensure relevant regulations. Upon meeting the conditions, enterprises wishing to welcome and serve international tourists shall send voluntary registration documents to the Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism at least 5 days before organizing or welcoming the guests (in accordance with the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism’s guidelines for international travel agencies, tourist accommodation establishments).
