Vietnam eVisa
What is the eVisa for Vietnam?
The eVisa for Vietnam is an official endorsement from the government that allows individuals to enter Vietnam for a specified duration. Various types of visas are available based on the purpose of the visit and desired length of stay in the country. You will find visas for tourism, employment, and business, among others. This visa is affixed to the bearer’s passport as an indication of their authorized stay.
Do you need a visa to go to Vietnam?
Generally speaking, most travelers require a visa. However, Vietnam has implemented visa exemptions for citizens of certain countries traveling for short stays. These short stays must be under 15 days, 30 days, 45 days or 90 days and are intended for tourism purposes.
The visa exemption is subject to nationality, length of stay and the purpose of the visit. Citizens of some countries may enter Vietnam without a visa for a specified duration, while others may need to obtain a traditional visa in advance. If you want to travel to Vietnam for up to 90 days and for tourism, some eligible nationalities can opt for an eVisa, which is processed online.
If the exemption of a traditional visa doesn’t apply to your nationality, it’s crucial to thoroughly research the specific requirements and eligibility criteria for your nationality. This will help you determine the type of document you need and show you how to apply for it.
