How to carry out repatriation procedures in Covid-19 pandemic?

There are two ways for Vietnamese citizens to complete the repatriation procedures during the Covid-19 pandemic:

Option 1: Registering for repatriation on the relief flight on the website of the Embassy of Vietnam in the host country (where the citizen is residing)

To register for repatriation, you’ll find information on relief flights of Vietnamese citizens. Fill in the information on the registration link, choose repatriation time (if you are lucky enough to get a relief flight) and wait for the email’s response from the Embassy. In the absence of flight relief information, you can call the Embassy directly for assistance. See the list of Vietnamese embassies abroad at http://omw.mofa.gov.vn/vi-vn/Trang/default.aspx

This is the plan to for the “passive” repatriation, because you absolutely do not know how long it will take to have a relief flight available? The relief flight may run out of seats due to late registration…. You can wait from 1 month, 6 months to 1 year to be able to return to your country: 1) because there must be enough people for a flight of 200 – 350 seats; 2) Subject to the approval of the Government of Vietnam (on the basis of the epidemic situation, the control of the epidemic, the ability to respond to medical quarantine at a particular time, the epidemic situation in the host country). Therefore, repatriation to Vietnam under this plan is quite beyond one’s control, sometimes it is just expectation during the Covid-19 pandemic.
