Vietnam VISA 90 days - single entry

1. What is a Vietnamese E-Visa?
The Vietnamese E-Visa, also known as the Vietnam e-visa, has been issued by the Vietnam Immigration Department since February 2017. This type of visa is issued online.

Currently, the Vietnam E-Visa is available for citizens of all countries and territories worldwide. It is valid for up to 90 days, with options for single or multiple entries.

Visitors can apply for a Vietnamese e-visa themselves through the Immigration Department's online portal. However, when applying independently, aside from filling in the required information, travelers should be cautious of certain issues that can delay visa approval, such as:

  • Incorrectly formatted names
  • Uploading unsuitable photos

To minimize these risks, you can choose EVisa's Visa Application Support Service for foreigners entering Vietnam. With expertise and specialized knowledge, EVISA Vietnam knows how to handle your visa application according to the requirements of the Immigration Department.
