Japan will start easing travel restrictions with a chartered flight to Vietnam this June to transport 250 Japanese businesspeople.
The passengers will be exempt from quarantine in Vietnam and their return to Japan if they test negative for the coronavirus.
Japan is negotiating travel resumptions with Vietnam, Australia, New Zealand, and Thailand, countries deemed to be relatively low risk in importing infections.
Vietnam has denied entry and refused to issue visas to foreigners since late March, with some exceptions, including those for diplomats.
In late April, Japan placed Vietnam to its entry ban list and issued a Level 3 travel advisory urging its nationals to avoid the country.
Both countries required two-week quarantine for all arrivals.
Under a new arrangement, travelers between the countries will be exempt from the quarantine if they have negative results in the polymerase chain reaction tests before departure and upon arrival.
Travelers would also have to submit itineraries, including which hotel they will be booked and places they plan to visit.
Japan's entry ban list still includes South Kore, the US, and China.
