How this slipped by me I still don't know but I found out just this week that Vietnam is amending their visa rules as of July 1st, 2020 and it's possible you could be affected. Although I still haven't seen official documentation on this particular change yet many people are commenting on forums about the new rule for tourist visas where you will have to leave the country every 30 daynin order to validate your visa. Currently if you have a 90 visa you can stay in the country for the full term. Now according to some sources you will need to exit every 30 days, and possibly for Americans this would be required for a 1 year tourist visa. I will keep you up posted as more details become available. It's of course possible that there could be certain countries exempted from exiting every 30 days as well as some kind of service fee or official stamp validating a 90 day or longer tourist visa while staying in the country.
