Hey everyone! I’m planning to visit Vietnam soon and I need some help figuring out the visa process. I’ve heard there are different types of visas, but I’m not sure which one is best for a tourist like me. Should I apply online, or is it better to get it at the embassy? Also, how long does it usually take to process? I’d appreciate any advice from those who have been through this before!

That’s right! The e-visa is the easiest and most convenient option if you qualify. If you’re planning to stay longer than 30 days, you’ll need a different type of visa, like a tourist visa that allows for extensions. If you’re traveling for business, there are also different categories of visas available. One thing to keep in mind is that your passport should be valid for at least six months from your planned entry date. Also, make sure to print a copy of your e-visa approval before you travel, as you’ll need to show it upon arrival. Vietnam has some amazing destinations, so I’m sure you’ll have a great time exploring!

Hey! Great choice—Vietnam is an amazing place to visit. For tourists, the easiest option is usually an e-visa, which you can apply for online before your trip. It’s valid for up to 30 days and is pretty straightforward to get. You’ll need to fill out an application form and make photo https://photogov.net/documents/vn-visa-photo/ , upload a passport-sized photo, and pay the fee. Processing time is usually around 3–5 business days, but I’d recommend applying at least a couple of weeks in advance just to be safe. Another option is getting a visa on arrival, but that requires an approval letter beforehand, and some airports don’t accept it. It’s best to check the official government website for the most up-to-date information.
