Hi, I have question, is it better to get Visa prior to arrival or just get it in the Hanoi Airport? can you tell me what is the differences? I am US Citizen. I will be traveling with my sister from Indonesia. She is Indonesian. Does Indonesian need Visa to enter Vietnam? Please kindly advise.

Thank you,

Dear Ms. Cecilia Liem,

We would like to inform that the Filipino passport holders are granted a 21-day visa exemption with single entry. Their passports should have at least six months of validity upon the date of arrival to meet airlines’ requirements, and their arrival date is NOT within 30 days from their last exit date with visa exemption

Secondly, there are 2 options to obtain a Vietnam visa. You can apply at the Embassy of Vietnam in your current living country, or you can apply for a visa on arrival (online) with us. Once presenting yourself to the Embassy for a regular visa, you need to assemble all of the documents required in support of your application. The failure to do so may result in your application being denied. Moreover, it would be inconvenient if your living place is far away from the Embassy. The process takes about a week and there are also additional fees such as postage cost, transportation fee, etc. Conversely, if you apply for a Visa on arrival, there is no document required. You only need to fill in the form then make online payment. After 2 working days, the approval letter will be sent to your email. You should print it out to board the plane and to get the visa stamp at the Vietnam int’l airport. Please note that you cannot get the visa yourself upon arrival without our approval letter. Alternatively, applicants will pay 2 types of fee for VOA including the service fee and the stamping fee. The service fee is for visa approval letter processing and paperwork procedures, and the stamping fee is paid to the Vietnam Immigration Officer at the arrival airport to get the visa stamped. If applicants have booked our full package, this fee would not need paying anymore.

Should you have any further enquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us at visa@vietnam-evisa.org or call us at (+84) 909 343 525

Best regards,

 

Hannah Yan (Ms.)
