To be able to engage in commercial activities in Vietnam, one must first get a business visa for Vietnam. E-visas for businesses that are valid for up to three months have just become available after recent modifications to Vietnam’s visa policies. As a direct consequence of this, Norwegian businesspeople may now submit their visa applications online and receive an electronic visa valid for three months, allowing them to work or conduct business in Vietnam. With a Vietnam business E-visa valid for three months, Norwegian nationals are able to participate in a wide variety of activities, including signing contracts, attending business-to-business meetings, and collaborating with Vietnamese businesses to investigate potential investment prospects. Let’s have a look at the process of obtaining an e-visa for a business trip to Vietnam valid for three months for Norwegian nationals.
1/ In what circumstances are Norwegian businesspeople eligible to apply for an electronic visa valid for three months for business purposes to Vietnam?
There is a lot of material on the internet that claims Norwegian citizens can only receive an E-visa to Vietnam for a maximum of one month if they are traveling for business. That is correct! However, the update on the visa policy is out of current.
When the Vietnam business E-visa was originally made available, the duration of the single-entry visa type was only one month. However, beginning in August 2023, the Vietnam government will implement a new policy on the Vietnam business E-visa for people from Norway. The new policy would increase the maximum length of stay to three months. Now is the time for Norwegian businesspeople to apply for an e-visa that will allow them to stay in Vietnam for up to three months for the purposes of conducting business, attending meetings, or working. The Norway citizens who apply for this business e-visa will have the choice to remain for either one month or three months, with either a single entry or multiple entries.
2/ What are the prerequisites for a Vietnam Business E-Visa valid for three months for citizens of Norway?
Only a passport and a photo are necessary to submit an application for an e-visa to conduct business in Vietnam for a period of three months if you are a Norwegian citizen. Check to ensure that the following conditions are met by each of the documents:
In addition, businesspeople from Norway are required to have a valid credit card and an email address in order to make online payments and get E-visa results.
3/ In order to apply for a three-month business e-visa from Vietnam, is it necessary for Norwegian businesspeople to have a sponsor in Vietnam?
When applying for a Vietnam three-month business visa, having a local sponsor in Vietnam was necessary as recently as a few months ago. This sponsoring firm will put together the necessary paperwork and submit a letter of approval for Norwegian businessmen.
On the other hand, the processes are simpler now. When applying for a 3-month visa to Vietnam, travelers from Norway do not require a Vietnamese enterprise to serve as a sponsor on their behalf. With the introduction of the new regulation for the Vietnam E-visa, Norwegian businessmen are now able to prepare the necessary paperwork and complete all of the necessary procedures on their own. When Norwegian businesspeople apply for an e-visa valid for three months in Vietnam at this time, having a sponsor is no longer necessary.
