When coming to Vietnam

On arrival at your destination airport, you are required to submit your original passport + visa approval letter + Vietnamese visa application form, then waiting to be called for paying the visa stamp fee to get your visa. Therefore, you have to prepare these following documents:

  • Print a hard copy of approval letter to show for boarding airplane (the airline staffs check the approval letter before they allow you to board), and it is required to show at “Landing Visa” or “Visa Upon Arrival” office for picking up your visa.
  • Take at least 2 color photos 4×6 cm (straight face, no hat or glasses, white or bright background).
  • Fill in the Vietnamese visa application form and attach the photos (We send this form to you when you apply visa with us so that you can fill in it in advance).
  • Note that your original passport must valid at least 6 months from the arrival date with at least 2 blank pages.
  • Prepare cash for paying visa stamp fee on arrival. It is the fee paying for Vietnam government to get visa stamped on your passport, and has been paid on cash on the arrival date. You should prepare it in US Dollars instead of Vietnam Dong or other currencies to avoid exchange rate difference. This fee is different from the types of visa you apply. You can see the below table for reference.
Type of Visa Stamp Fee
One month single 25 USD
One month multiple 50 USD
Three months single 25 USD
Three months multiple 50 USD
Six months multiple 95 USD
One year multiple 135 USD

 

After receiving your visa on Visa Counter, you check it again. If there are any mistakes or errors, you ask the immigration officer to revise it. After that, you can enter Vietnam.
