    Vietnam visas

    One step closer to your next adventure.

    Plan a Vietnam visit around the visa dates and entry permission you actually need. The national electronic visa portal offers single- and multiple-entry eVisas, with a maximum validity of 90 days. A visa exemption may be a different option for some travelers; an eVisa guide alone does not establish that you need to buy a visa.

    Before you set off

    Plan your Vietnam application

    1

    Match the passport used for the application to the passport you will carry. Check every name, date and passport digit before confirming the official form.

    2

    Choose single or multiple entry according to your itinerary. Leaving Vietnam for another country and returning can change the entry permission you need.

    3

    Use the entry and exit checkpoints listed by the Immigration Department. Check the approved document before travel, including the dates and passport details.

    A few details worth double-checking

    • Do not treat the maximum 90-day validity as a promise that every applicant will receive the same dates.
    • Do not assume an application receipt is an issued visa.
    • Check that the visa’s passport details and permitted entry dates match your journey.

    Good questions. Clear answers.

    Your Vietnam visa questions

    Does every visitor need a Vietnam eVisa?

    No single answer covers every passport and trip. Check current visa exemptions and the official eVisa rules for your passport, purpose and travel dates.

    Can I leave Vietnam and return with a single-entry eVisa?

    Do not plan a second entry using a single-entry permission. Check whether your itinerary needs the multiple-entry option and verify the conditions on the issued document.

    Make every detail count

    Prepare your passport and photo information, check your dates, and review the common details that cause avoidable corrections.
