Apply for a Vietnam e-Visa with 4 Easy Steps
Choose Your Vietnam e-Visa
- Purpose of visit: Choose the reason for your trip, such as tourism or business.
- Type of visa: Pick a 1-month or 3-month visa, with single or multiple entries. Not sure which? If you might leave Vietnam and come back, multiple entry is the safer pick.
- Date of arrival: This is the day you plan to enter Vietnam, and your e-visa becomes valid from this date. Choose the day you’ll really arrive.
- Port of arrival: This is the airport, land border, or seaport where you’ll enter. Choose carefully, because it can’t be changed once your e-visa is issued.
- Processing speed: Choose how fast you need it:
Helpful tip: Check your dates carefully: your e-Visa must be valid on the day you enter Vietnam.
