The Vietnam electronic visa (eVisa) is an official digital travel authorization issued by the Vietnam Immigration Department. Under the expanded immigration policy, citizens of all countries and territories worldwide are eligible to apply online for an eVisa for tourism, business visits, transit, or visiting relatives. The eVisa is available as either a single-entry or multiple-entry visa valid for up to 90 continuous days. Because the entire application operates digitally, travelers do not need to visit an embassy or obtain an approval letter for visa-on-arrival stamps.
No third-party service or agency can guarantee visa approval. All decisions regarding visa issuance, entry permits, and border admission rest exclusively with the sovereign immigration officers of the Government of Vietnam. NomadicMart is an independent application concierge that prepares, formats, and reviews your documents prior to submission. Our expert review drastically reduces delays and rejections caused by common clerical errors, such as misaligned photo specifications, misspelled middle names, or inverted passport dates.
The Vietnam eVisa is accepted at over 40 designated international border gates across the country. This includes all major international airports—such as Hanoi (Noi Bai), Ho Chi Minh City (Tan Son Nhat), Da Nang, Nha Trang (Cam Ranh), and Phu Quoc—alongside land border crossings with Laos, Cambodia, and China, as well as multiple deep-water seaports. When completing your application, you must specify your entry port and exit port. Travelers must enter and exit through the official checkpoints designated on their approved eVisa document.
Vietnam immigration applies rigorous automated scanning to uploaded media. Your passport biographical page must be captured in full color, showing all four corners clearly without fingers, glare, or reflections obscuring the machine-readable zone (MRZ). The personal portrait photo must be taken within the last six months against a plain, solid white background. You must look straight into the camera with a neutral facial expression, keeping your eyes open and ears visible. Tinted lenses, sunglasses, headwear (except for documented religious reasons), and casual selfies are strictly prohibited.
Under current Vietnamese immigration regulations, electronic visas cannot be extended directly online from within Vietnam. If you wish to stay longer than your 90-day validity period, you must temporarily depart the country (often referred to as a visa run to neighboring countries like Laos, Cambodia, or Thailand) and re-enter using a newly approved eVisa. Alternatively, visitors may consult a locally registered immigration attorney or authorized agency in Vietnam to explore options for residence permits or long-term visas if eligible.
NomadicMart is an independent commercial facilitator not affiliated with evisa.xuatnhapcanh.gov.vn or the Vietnamese government. While travelers may apply directly on the government portal, self-applicants frequently report server timeouts, rejected credit cards without explanations, and immediate application cancellation due to minor image cropping mistakes. NomadicMart provides a stress-free experience: hands-on document verification, photo resizing to official government standards, multi-currency payment options with transparent all-inclusive pricing, and 24/7 dedicated customer support.
