Review the conditions, deadlines and fees for canceling or changing your Vietnam ferry ticket bookings. Cancellation and exchange rules are determined by individual ferry operators and applied through Ferry VN.

Cancellation Conditions

Passengers may cancel confirmed ferry tickets subject to the following standard requirements:

  • The cancellation request must be submitted prior to the operator designated cutoff deadline before scheduled departure.
  • E-tickets must be unused and not yet checked in at the port terminal.
  • Superdong, Phu Quoc Express, Greenlines DP, Hoa Binh Shipping and Lightning 68 do not refund or exchange tickets on weekends, public holidays and Tet, or when a sailing has fewer than five tickets left.
  • Partial cancellations for individual passengers within a group booking are permitted where operator ticketing systems allow.

Change Conditions

Ticket modifications include changing sailing dates, adjusting departure times or updating passenger name details:

  • Changes depend on seat availability on the requested alternative sailing.
  • Date and departure time changes must be requested within the permitted advance notice window.
