Vietnam Visa Guide

 

Visa on Arrival (VOA)
It is most likely the easiest way to obtain your visa without having to chase down embassies, consulates and the like prior to your trip. The “Visa Approval Letter” is a letter issued by the Vietnamese Immigration Department that allows you to enter and exit Vietnam for a given time period. With the approval letter, you can pick up your visa upon arrival at one of 3 international airports in Vietnam (Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang). At the airport, the custom will verify the details on the approval letter based on your passport and travel documents and then you will be granted entry upon arrival in Vietnam with the approval letter. Please make sure everything is correct when filling the document before your departure.

• Validity: One (01) month or three (03) months (from the date of issue)
