Vietnam visa for Netherlands

The relationship between Vietnam and the Netherlands is grounded in the 17th century, as the commercial Dutch East India Company took a leading position with respect to foreign trade between the countries. It is generally announced that the current economic relationship is particularly based on the in 1986 initiated Doi Moi process. From 1976-1985 the cooperation was focused on development aid granted by the Dutch government to support the rural sector in Vietnam. Due to the growing economic and political cooperation the Netherlands opened an Embassy in Hanoi in 1993. Next to that, in 1997 the Netherlands opened a Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh city and in 1998 a Vietnamese Embassy was established in The Hague. In the 21st century the Dutch-Vietnamese relationship developed positively, both economically and politically.

The well-developed economic relationship is strongly related to the excellent political ties between both countries, facilitating a more valuable cooperation in those fields, where we have a lot to offer to each other.

Besides their mutual interests, the Vietnamese and the Dutch get on very well because of their common values and attitude.
