Vietnam Visas (2015)

This is an update (2023)

Vietnam has continued their visas on arrival as well as their visas through online carriers. Generally speaking, there is not a big difference with upon arrival versus online unless you are looking to be prepared/save time (they list you and when you cross the land border, tis much mroe convenient, you can get your visa and go back to your bus for the remainder of the 30 minutes-1 hour while others are bumbling around uncertain how to pay for their visa as they don't have cash or credit on them-most do-but sometimes).

ATM's are a bit of a pain in the rear with surcharges, so unless you can USD or VND, you are best ordering up an online visa to save yourself any strife on the trip, generally costs the same, if someone is telling you it costs more than 30 USD, I'd wager they are looking in the wrong places.

This is a post for any folk looking to travel to the sunny shores of Vietnam or the hustling city life of its urban areas.

A friend recently asked for information on the visa process to Vietnam, I am sharing my information and experience on the topic with folks in the event that others may find it useful to have this clearly laid out information available at a finger's tip

Information in regards to cost for Visas in Vietnam.

Single Entry for 1 month-1 to 3 people-17$

Multiple Entry for 3 month-1-3 people-65$

Multiple Entry for 1 month-1-3 people 20$

Single Entry for 3 month-1 to 3 people 25$

You can fly into the country and get a visa on arrival HOWEVER keep in mind they take cash only at airports usually and will only accept USD or VND

Looking for a trustworthy website for Visas in Vietnam? I used this organization two times, no regrets and never worried. I crossed through land borders both times but flew out two times as well, still didn't need the airport visa because I had a visa already
