Vietnam E-Visa Is The Best Visa Option For Most Travelers

Bill Bui February 8, 2020 E-Visa Vietnam, Vietnam Travel Tips No Comments
A few years ago, the Vietnamese government began offering a cheaper, easier method for getting a Vietnam tourist visa. Previously, the simplest way to get a visa was by getting a Visa On Arrival, which involved paying a third-party agent to issue a digital invitation and then waiting in line at the Vietnamese airport to get the actual visa.An E-visa is a 100% online visa issuing process that costs less and allows you to avoid Visa On Arrival queues. It’s available for citizens of most countries. Follow these steps to get one:

  1. Log onto the one and only official Vietnam E-Visa Site
  2. Apply for a visa letter online at least a week before your trip. The processing fee is 25 USD.
  3. Print out the e-visa once it’s sent to you. It will take 3 to 6 days to arrive. Your e-visa should look similar to the image below.
  4. Bring the e-visa with you on your flight.
  5. Present your e-visa to the immigration clerk at the Vietnamese airport.

E-visas allow you to stay in Vietnam for 30 days. If you want to visit for longer, look into visa on arrival.
