Vietnam E-Visa

As of August 15, 2023, Vietnam has updated its visa policies to facilitate easier entry for international travelers. Here’s what you need to know:

Vietnam E-Visa Overview:

  • Validity: E-visas are now valid for up to 90 days and allow for multiple entries during this period.

  • Eligible Applicants: Citizens from all countries and territories are eligible to apply for an e-visa to Vietnam.

  • Application Process:

    1. Online Application: Visit the official Vietnam Immigration Department’s e-visa portal at https://evisa.gov.vn/.
    2. Required Documents: Prepare a recent passport-sized photo and a scanned copy of your passport’s biographical page.
    3. Form Completion: Fill out the application form with accurate personal and travel details.
    4. Payment: Pay the e-visa fee electronically as specified on the portal.
    5. Processing Time: Processing typically takes 3 to 5 working days.
    6. E-Visa Receipt: Once approved, download and print your e-visa to present upon arrival in Vietnam.

Visa Exemptions:

Vietnam maintains visa exemption agreements with certain countries, allowing citizens to enter without a visa for stays ranging from 14 to 45 days, depending on nationality. Travelers should consult the official Vietnamese government portal to determine if they qualify for visa exemption.

Important Considerations:

  • Passport Validity: Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay and contains at least one blank visa page.

  • Accurate Information: Double-check all information provided in your application to avoid delays or rejections.

  • Stay Duration: If you wish to stay in Vietnam beyond your e-visa’s validity, you must apply for an appropriate visa extension or a new visa.

For the most current and detailed information, always refer to the official Vietnam Immigration Department website or contact the nearest Vietnamese embassy or consulate before planning your trip.
