It is recommend that you obtain your entry visa by having a valid passport stamped prior to your departure by applying to any one of the Vietnam Embassies and/or Consulates worldwide. However, if your particular city does not have a Vietnamese Embassy, and you wish to avoid administrative procedure (from 4 to 10 days) which happen with visa approvals at embassies outside Vietnam, we are ready to help you to solve this issue. We provide a form, which you may copy and paste into a word document, fill out and return to us with the required information by fax or email. We will then arrange to obtain the visa approval code service for you. You will subsequently still need to get the official Vietnamese stamp of approval on your passport at any of Vietnam Embassies. Following such an approval, we will send you notification (by fax or email) and fax the approval to your desired Embassy or Consulate. You will need to take that approval with your passport to that Embassy or Consulate to get the visa stamp on your passport, which is done on the same day. You are now ready to go Vietnam!

If there is no Vietnam Embassy or Consulate in your country, or you just want to make Vietnam part of a multi-destination trip, then we recommend Visa on Arrival as your best choice.

What is a "Visa on Arrival"?: this is most comfortable way to obtain your visa without having to chase down embassies, consulates and the like prior to your trip, and is a valid alternative when applying for a tourist visa. The entry visa will be stamped on your passport as you pass through our immigration checkpoint. Though valid for thirty days, it can be extended once you enter Vietnam. With this type of visa, you may only enter the country once (single entry not multiple-entries) & applied only when you will enter Vietnam by air.

How to get a Vietnam Visa on arrival: this is one of our travel services. We are one of the first agencies offer this kind of service, whereby we obtain what is called an “Approval Letter” for you from the Vietnam Immigration Department in Hanoi. After we obtain the approval for you, we will send you a copy by fax or email. Copies of the same document will be forwarded on your behalf to Vietnam immigration checkpoints at International Airports only, so that when you arrive in Vietnam, the Immigration officers will have those documents on hand and will be able to issue your entry visa smoothly.
