Vietnam visa requirement for Japanese

• ›  Vietnam Embassy in Japan
• ›  Vietnam Visa for Japanese

I heard that Japanese passport holders are not required visa to enter Vietnam, is that correctly ?

As Japanese you are free to visit Vietnam for 15 days without visas. This policy applies for tourist purpose only, does not apply for work and study purpose. If you want to work or doing business, you should apply for Vietnam business visas.

However, if you intend coming for travel with longer than 15 days, you will need tourist visa to Vietnam. Tourist visa is also issued for one months, 3 months and 6 months period. Again you can apply for single or multiple entries.

You can procure your Vietnam visa from a Vietnam international airport upon your entry there or at the Vietnam embassy in the event that you get to seek it through our website. Firstly, you will need to have the following:

All qualified visa for Japanese applicants then need to:

– Scan the completed form and submit it back to our website for the approval process that follows shortly.
– Pay the visa administration fees with us according to our guidelines
– We will send them a letter of approval to your email address that you specified to us. This letter of approval for your visa application comes within 48 working hours.

Each applicant to the Vietnam visa for Japanese will have to present the following
– Their two passport photos
– Their letter of approval in hardcopy printout version
– Their valid passport at the time of obtaining their Vietnam visas.

This procedure can be undertaken at the Vietnam embassy one picked in their visa application form or at the Vietnam international airport upon their landing there by plane. Finally, the candidates will each pay a slight visa stamping fee before they are handed their Vietnam visa right there.

Important points to note before applying for the Vietnam visa for Japanese:
– There are three international airports in Vietnam to be specific: Tan Son Nhat, NoiBai and Da Nang
– The inquirers must fill in their visa application forms with right data. This precautionary measure ensures their letter of approval holds legitimate data as is their passport.
– Candidates must have valid passports that were acquired not less than six months prior to the date of visa application. The passports also must have a longer validity than the visa that is to be stamped on the inside pages. The passports must also have enough space since a visa is a full page paper thus requires more space.
– Candidates must present most recent passport photos not any older than six months.
