Tan Son Nhat International Airport

Tan Son Nhat Airport is about 7 km (4 miles) north of District 1, inside the city. The drive to Ben Thanh Market and the riverside center usually takes 20 to 30 minutes, and 45 minutes or more in the morning and evening rush hours. City bus 109 makes the same trip in 45 to 60 minutes.

Yes. Saigon is the older name of Ho Chi Minh City, and the airport's code, SGN, comes from it, so travelers call Tan Son Nhat International Airport Saigon airport, Ho Chi Minh airport or SGN. It is the city's only airport with commercial flights, so a flight to Ho Chi Minh City lands here.

Tan Son Nhat has three terminals. Terminal 2 handles all international flights. Terminal 1 handles VietJet Air's domestic flights, and Terminal 3, opened in 2025, handles domestic flights for Vietnam Airlines, Bamboo Airways, Vietravel Airlines, Pacific Airlines and VASCO. Terminals 1 and 2 are side by side; Terminal 3 stands apart and is linked by a free shuttle bus.

Vietnam Airlines uses Terminal 3 for all its domestic flights and Terminal 2 for international flights. If you connect from an international flight to a domestic one, allow time to move from Terminal 2 to Terminal 3 on the free shuttle bus, which runs between all three terminals from early morning until after midnight.

VietJet Air's domestic flights use Terminal 1, with check-in at Hall A since January 2026, and its international flights use Terminal 2. The two terminals stand side by side and are joined by a covered walkway, so moving between them on foot takes only a few minutes.

Take the free shuttle bus that links all three terminals. It runs from 04:30 to 00:30, about every 15 minutes, and Terminal 3 stands apart from Terminals 1 and 2, so it is not a short walk with luggage. Shuttles can be busy at peak times, so leave a margin when connecting between flights.

Most travelers need an e-visa, which every nationality can get online from Vietnam's official portal for stays of up to 90 days. Citizens of the UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Japan, South Korea and the Nordic countries can stay up to 45 days visa-free, and most Southeast Asian nationalities have their own exemptions. Check the rules for your passport before you fly.

Yes. City bus 109 runs from the terminals to Ben Thanh in District 1 about every 20 minutes and takes 45 to 60 minutes, with a charge for luggage. Bus 152 also serves the airport but takes a longer route. The buses suit travelers with small bags; with suitcases, a taxi or car is easier.

Metered taxis, including Mai Linh and Vinasun, wait at the taxi stands outside Terminals 1 and 2, and ride-hailing apps such as Grab, Be and Xanh SM pick up at marked zones on the ground floor. At Terminal 3, taxis and ride-hailing cars use Level 1. Ignore drivers who approach you inside the terminal.

Yes. Viettel, Mobifone and Vinaphone sell SIM cards at counters near the arrivals exits of Terminals 1 and 2, and you need your passport to buy one. Currency exchange counters and ATMs are in the arrivals halls. Rates are usually better in the city, so change only what you need for the first day.

Yes. The international Terminal 2 has several lounges, including the Rose Business Lounge, Orchid Lounge, Apricot Business Lounge, Jasmine Halal Lounge and Vietnam Airlines' Lotus Lounge, open to eligible premium passengers and, at most of them, to paying guests. Vietnam Airlines also has a Lotus Lounge in the domestic departures area of Terminal 3.

Tan Son Nhat has two main parking garages. A multi-story garage opposite the domestic Terminal 1 serves Terminals 1 and 2, a short walk away, and a separate parking building with two basement levels serves Terminal 3 and connects to it by pedestrian bridges. Check the terminal for your flight before you drive, since Terminal 3 stands apart.

Ho Chi Minh City and all of Vietnam are on Indochina Time, UTC+7, all year, with no daylight saving time. That makes Vietnam the same time as Bangkok and Jakarta and one hour behind Singapore, Hong Kong and Taipei. Set your watch on landing so your onward plans line up with local time.
