π Vietnam Visa Guide
π Do You Need a Visa?
Vietnam offers visa exemptions for citizens of certain countries for short stays (typically 14β45 days depending on nationality). Please check with the official Vietnam immigration website or your nearest Vietnamese embassy to confirm whether you need a visa.
π Common Options for Obtaining a Vietnam Visa
- Visa Exemption: Citizens of countries such as Japan, South Korea, Germany, France, and several ASEAN countries may enter Vietnam without a visa for a limited period.
- E-Visa: Citizens from over 80 countries can apply for a 90-day single or multiple-entry e-visa online via the official Vietnamese government portal: https://evisa.xuatnhapcanh.gov.vn/
- Visa on Arrival (VOA): For those arriving by air, VOA is available with a pre-approval letter issued by a Vietnamese travel agency. Not recommended unless absolutely necessary, as e-visa is more convenient and secure.
- Visa via Embassy/Consulate: You may apply directly at the nearest Vietnamese embassy or consulate. Processing time and requirements vary by country.
β οΈ Important Notes
- Make sure your passport is valid for at least 6 months from your date of entry.
- Always print and bring your visa approval or e-visa letter when traveling.
- If using Visa on Arrival, you must arrive at an international airport (e.g., Noi Bai in Hanoi, Tan Son Nhat in Ho Chi Minh City).
- Double-check the visa duration and entry type (single or multiple) to avoid overstays.
- Visa regulations may change, so we recommend checking the latest information from official sources before travel.
