Seattle follows Pacific Time, which is UTC-8 from roughly November to March and UTC-7 from roughly March to November. Ho Chi Minh City follows Indochina Time year-round at UTC+7. This means Ho Chi Minh City is typically 15 hours ahead of Seattle in winter and 14 hours ahead in summer.

Visa requirements depend on your nationality, length of stay, and purpose of visit. We recommend checking the latest entry regulations with the relevant embassy or consulate, and confirming any transit requirements for Singapore, before you book and again before you travel.

For international flights from Seattle to Ho Chi Minh City via Singapore, we recommend arriving at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport at least 3 hours before departure. This allows sufficient time for check-in, security screening, and reaching your departure gate.

Tan Son Nhat International Airport is relatively close to the city centre. Options typically include taxis, app-based car services, and airport buses. Travel times vary with traffic, so it is wise to allow extra time at busy periods and check local guidance on the most suitable transport option for you.

Ho Chi Minh City is warm and humid for much of the year, so light, breathable clothing and comfortable walking shoes are useful. A light rain jacket or compact umbrella can be helpful during the rainy months. Remember to keep travel documents, essential medication, and valuables in your cabin baggage.
