Moreover, the embassy will simplify visa procedures and requirements  for those who have previously entered Europe and several other countries. 
The decision was made to address the strong increase of tourists from Vietnam to France. About 24,269 visas were grantes in 2014, a 28.7% year-on-year rise, including nearly 11,000 travel visas, up 62 % from the previous year.
