The Vietnam Working Holiday Scheme reopened on October 24, 2024, and the number of places available under the scheme has increased from 100 to 200.
New Zealand has agreements with 45 countries, including Vietnam, that allow young people aged between 18 and 30 (or up to 35 in some cases) the opportunity to travel around New Zealand and work temporarily while they are here.
Work is under way to have formal agreements in place to allow a reciprocal increase for New Zealand holidaymakers wanting to travel to Vietnam.
