  1. Apply online to get a visa on arrival

It sounds strange when you hear “applying online for a visa on arrival”. Why you need to apply online when it is called visa on arrival?

Be noted that Vietnam visa on arrival is not the same with some other countries. For visa on arrival to Vietnam, you need a letter called “visa approval letter”. This letter will allow you boarding the airplane and getting visa stamp at the airport. Without this letter, you cannot get visa on arrival. And this letter is applied online before you come to Vietnam. In order to get Vietnam visa on arrival, you have to do two steps:

Step 1: Apply online to get the “visa approval letter”

Step 2: Get visa stamp at the airport

  • Print out the visa approval letter to get on the airplane
  • At arrival, come to the “landing visa counter” or “visa upon arrival counter”
  • Submit visa approval letter + passport + photos + Vietnamese visa application form
  • Pay stamp fee
  • Get back passport with visa inside

Visa on arrival is easy to get. You just take a few minutes to complete the online form, and your visa approval letter will be delivered to your email. This kind of visa allows you to enter Vietnam through the international airports, for tourist or business purpose, with single or multiple entry, and can be stayed 1 month, 3 months, 6 months or 1 year.
