Frequently asked questions about the Vietnam eVisa

Do I need a visa for Vietnam?

If your nationality is on Vietnam’s visa-free list, you can enter without a visa for a limited stay (typically 45 days for most European and Asian countries as of 2026).

However, if you plan to stay longer or need multiple entries, you must apply for the 90-day eVisa. Many travelers from visa-exempt countries still choose to apply for the eVisa to enjoy the full 90-day duration without needing to do a "visa run."

How will I receive the Vietnam eVisa?

You will receive your approved eVisa via email in PDF format. You must print at least one physical copy to carry with you. While digital systems are improving, immigration officers at most checkpoints still require the printed document to process your entry stamp.

Can I enter Vietnam at any border with an eVisa?

Yes. Under the 2026 regulations, the port-of-entry field has been removed from the visa document. This means you are no longer restricted to the specific airport or land border you selected during your application. You can enter and exit through any of the 83 approved international gates, giving you complete flexibility if your travel plans change.

How long can I stay in Vietnam with an eVisa?

The Vietnam eVisa is valid for a maximum stay of 90 days. You can select either a single-entry or a multiple-entry version during your application, depending on whether you plan to visit neighboring countries like Cambodia or Laos and return to Vietnam.

What is the processing time of the Vietnam eVisa?

The government typically takes 3 to 10 business days. However, delays are common during Vietnamese public holidays (like Tet). With iVisa, we offer expedited processing to get your approval in as little as 4 business days, ensuring all your documents meet the strict government standards to avoid rejection.

Can I extend my eVisa while I am in Vietnam?

Currently, Vietnam does not allow for the direct extension of an eVisa while you are inside the country. If you wish to stay longer than 90 days, the most common method is a "visa run"—leaving the country briefly and re-entering with a new 90-day eVisa.

Do children/minors need a Vietnam eVisa?

Yes. Every traveler, regardless of age, must have their own individual eVisa. Parents or guardians can complete the application for minors. Children under 14 must be accompanied by a parent or authorized guardian during travel.

Do I need the Vietnam eVisa for transit?

If you remain in the international transit area and do not clear immigration, you do not need an eVisa. However, if you have a long layover and want to stay in a hotel outside the airport, or if you need to clear customs to collect and re-check bags for a self-transfer flight, you must have a valid eVisa or be from a visa-exempt country.

What are the most common reasons for denial?

The most frequent rejection reasons are low-quality passport scans or photos where the traveler is wearing glasses or the background isn't pure white. Additionally, typos in the passport number or name (which must exactly match the machine-readable zone) are common pitfalls. iVisa’s expert review is designed to catch these errors before they reach immigration authorities.
