What is the fastest way to get a Vietnam visa?
There at least three options to apply for a visa to Vietnam. However, visa on arrival seems to be the quickest and easiest way as it only takes 2 hours or less to receive the approval letter by email.
Processing time options
| Visa on arrival | Visa at embassy | E-visa |
|---|---|---|
| Less than 2 hours (emergency processing) | 3 business days | 4-8 working hours |
Which one to choose?
- If your travel date is more than one week ahead, you can choose e-visa or visa at the embassy for cost effective.
- If you need your visa very quickly and have no time to apply through the embassy, then visa-on-arrival is the best option to obtain your visa for Vietnam.
Questions and Answers (02)
My friend and I we are planning to go to Vietnam, and we have some questions for you regarding the Visa issue:
1. We are Chinese (and holding Chinese passport), we plan to fly to Ho Chi Minh through Hong Kong. Is it possible that we could get a Visa-upon-arrival if we fly from Hong Kong (and therefore don’t need to get a Vietnam visa in Beijing)? Is there a “letter of approval” for the Visa-upon-arrival?
2. How soon could we get the letter of approval (the fastest way)? And how much should we pay for it?
@Yinan Cheng, At present, visa on arrival is not an option for obtaining an emergency visa. Instead, you can apply for an e-visa, which can be processed in as soon as 8 working hours.
I'm holding a Canadian passport and I'm planning on going to Vietnam on April 26. What's the best and fastest way to apply for a visa? Please let me know as soon as possible so I can apply right away.
@Tina Chen, Currently, the fastest option available is to process your e-visa on the same day, which can be done on Monday and will be delivered to you by 2:30 PM.
