Indian passports have no nationwide exemption. The 30-day exemption applies only when arriving in Phu Quoc directly from abroad (for example connecting through a third country) and staying on the island. A domestic leg in Viet Nam before or after Phu Quoc requires a visa (e-visa). Some passengers have been refused boarding because they misread this rule.
