What About Vietnam Visa on Arrival?

For ordinary travelers who are eligible for electronic visas, the Vietnam eVisa is generally the more straightforward online option. Travelers with special circumstances should confirm the appropriate visa procedure before departure.

If you have already submitted a Vietnam eVisa application and received a registration code but your application is still pending, additional support may be available depending on your application status and travel date.
