A tourist E-visa fee, USD 25 valid for 30 or up to 90 days is required which you can simply apply for online. Processing time is max 7 working days. So give yourself enough time to apply. You will receive your code by email to print your visa.

!!! Important note! When applying for your visa please remember to spell check your name but also when you receive it back from them. And remember to choose the correct entry checkpoint into Vietnam when choosing your visa. People tend to very quickly choose Ho Chi Minh City Seaport checkpoint as an option but you need to choose: “Allowed to entry through Tan Son Nhat Int Airport (Ho Chi Minh City) checkpoint”. This is of course if you are flying into HCMC.
If you choose “Ho Chi Minh City Seaport checkpoint” you will still be able to enter but you will need to pay an extra $25 at customs. So let’s try to avoid this from happening.

If you like to stay in Vietnam for 15 days or less, there are countries that may enter visa-free.
