There is a common way of getting a Vietnam visa is to apply it in Vietnamese embassies. However, it is, sometimes, troublesome and complicated. Another way to obtain a visa to Vietnam is ordering it online or so-called Visa on Arrival, which has become more and more popular because of its convenience and safety.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • It is doable only when you travel by air.
  • Your passport has 1 month validity.
  • Size of your photographs must be 2x2 in size and taken within the last 6 months.
  • Photographs maybe in color or black and white.
  • Uniforms should not be worn in photographs with the exception of religious attire which is worn daily.
  • In the case of prescription glasses, wig, hearing devices..., you can still wear them when taking photos.
  1. Step 1

    Fill in the application form given in advance including your personal detail and send it via email to the service you are using.

  2. Step 2

    Confirm your information and pay the service fee. You will receive a confirmation that your application form has been sent to the company successfully. If all of the information is exact, the service fee will be paid through some reliably secure third parties like Paypal, Xoom or Western Union. Your information will be submitted to the Vietnam Immigration Department in Vietnam to get the approval letter after your payment confirmation.

  3. Step 3

    After two days, a visa approval letter will be sent to you by email. Your work is to print it out and bring it to the Vietnam arrival airports (Hanoi - Noi Bai Int'l Airport, Ho Chi Minh City - Tan Son Nhat Int'l Airport and Danang - Danang Int'l Airport). The Vietnam Immigration Department sent the original approval letter to the visa company and fax to the Immigration Office on your arrival at the airport in Vietnam.

  4. Step 4

    The last step is to get the stamp for your visa. When you come to the Vietnam’s airport upon arrival to get the visa stamped onto your passport, you are required to fill in the visa form, attach your photos and pay the visa stamping fee directly to the Immigration officer. The stamping fee depends on the type of visa you are applying (1 month single, 1 month multiple, 3 month single, 1 month multiple,…).

Tips & Warnings
  • Please keep the visa approval letter with you because you will still have to show it to the airlines in your country when you check in one more time.
