Visa On Arrival
Vietnam Visa on Arrival is an online, alternative way to obtain a visa to visit Vietnam.
After completing the online application form and paying the processing fee, you will receive, via email, your Approval Letter from between one to three business days, depending on the status of visa processing you have selected.
Copies of your Approval Letter will also be forwarded on your behalf to Vietnam Immigration checkpoints at each of Vietnam’s three international airports in Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, or Da Nang (online visa approval only applies to air travelers who arrive at one of Vietnam’s international airports; travelers arriving by land or sea must apply for a visa through a Vietnam Embassy).
