Only citizens of certain countries can visit Vietnam without an entry
visa (valid for visit within 30 days). Those countries include: some
Asean countries, Korea, Japan & Scandinavians (2005). All other
citizens are required to get an entry visa before departure or a
pre-approved entry visa (visa is issued on arrival at Vietnam’s
International Airports) supplied before arrival in Vietnam.
We recommend that you obtain your entry visa by having a valid passport
stamped prior to your departure by applying to any one of the Vietnam Embassies and/or Consulates worldwide.
However, if your particular city does not have a Vietnamese embassy,
and you wish to avoid procedural delays (anywhere from 4 to 10 days)
which sometimes happen with visa approvals at embassies outside Vietnam,
we can make this requirement a fairly easy exercise. We provide a form
below, which you may copy and paste into a word document, fill out and
return to us with the required information by fax or email. We will then
arrange to obtain the visa approval code service for you. You will
subsequently still need to get the official Vietnamese stamp of approval
on your passport at any of our Embassies. Following such an approval,
we will send you notification (by fax or email) and fax the approval to
your desired Embassy or Consulate. You will need to take that approval
with your passport to that Embassy or Consulate to get the visa stamp on
your passport, which is done on the same day. You are now ready to go
Vietnam!
In the event that there is no Vietnam embassy or Consulate
in your country, or you just want to make Vietnam part of a
multi-destination trip, then we recommend Visa on Arrival as your best
option.
What is a 'Visa on Arrival ?':
this is most likely the easiest way to obtain your visa without having
to chase down embassies, consulates and the like prior to your trip, and
is a valid alternative when applying for a tourist visa. The entry visa
will be stamped on your passport as you pass through our immigration
checkpoint. Though valid for thirty days, it can be extended once you
enter Viet Nam. With this type of visa, you may only enter the country
once (single entry as opposed to multiple-entries)& applied only
when you will enter Vietnam by air.
How to get a Visa on Arrival ?:
We are the first agency to offer this kind of service, whereby we
obtain what is called an “Approval Letter” for you from the Viet Nam
Immigration Department in Hanoi. After we obtain the approval for you,
we will forward you a copy by fax or email. Copies of the same document
will be forwarded on your behalf to Vietnam immigration checkpoints at
International Airports only, so that when you arrive in Viet Nam, the
Immigration officers will have those documents on hand and will be able
to issue your entry visa expediently.
