HOW DOES VIETNAM VISA ON ARRIVAL REALLY WORK ?


I have noticed that quite a lot of travelers confuse about Vietnam visa on arrival. Is it true that, you don’t need to do anything before your trip but just to go to Vietnam airport/ border to get Vietnam visa on arrival? 
Not likely visa on arrival for other countries like Laos, Cambodia, you just do nothing till you reach the borders, get your visa stamped there straight away. In order to get Vietnam visa on arrival, you must:

☑ Ensure that you are taking a plane to Vietnam to get Vietnam visa stamped at Vietnam airport.
☑ Get a Vietnam visa approval letter in your hand in order to get the permission for checking-in your flight to Vietnam.

How to apply for Vietnam visa approval letter?

Simply, you will submit your Vietnam visa request online at: Vietnamvisavoa.com with your passport details, entry/ exit date, visa type, entry airport. For visa on arrival, you just need to ensure that you travel by air to Vietnam in order to get Vietnam visa stamped on your passport upon arrival. Also, keep in mind that the requirement and service fee would change depend upon your nationality.



What do I do to get Vietnam visa on arrival?

You take with you a copy of Vietnam visa approval letter to check in your flight. Upon arrival, you show the documents again along with an entry form filled with your details attached with passport photo, your passport copy and stamping fee in cash. The Immigration officer will provide a Vietnam visa stamp on your passport accordingly.


Important note: Visa Regulation in each country is different and visa requirement is not the same for different nationalities, therefore, it is highly recommended to carefully read instruction whenever you travel to another country. We are not surprised to find that many clients call us at the last minutes when they are refused to 🛂check-in for the reason of misunderstanding about VIETNAM VISA ON ARRIVAL

Be careful with street vendors in Vietnam!

Were you ripped off by street vendors in Vietnam ? If yes, I am sure you felt so bad. This happens not only to foreigners but also to Vietnamese like me. I can tell you some of my bad experience. One time, I went to the Old Quarter to meet some of my Indian clients. We went out to Hang Dao street, the lady in the group asked me the name of some fruits that vendors mix and sell on the street. I guessed she wanted to try, so I asked the vendor for the price of Dracontomelon, she said 25,000 VND/ 100 gram. I said: Give me 200 gram. Quickly, she gave me a bag includes Dracontomelon and Mango and said it is 100,000 VND. I told her, I dont need to buy that much but she started to shout 100,000 VND. I didn't want to argue with her, so I paid and leave. Remind myself that I will never buy such things again the Old Quarter. Other times, when I go there, foreigners keep feeling curious about the mix fruits but I told them my experience, so I am not going to buy again. Another time, I...

Is it difficult for Pakistani to get Vietnam visa ?

Vietnam attracts worldwide travelers and tourists with various beauties: the ancient of Old Quarter in Hanoi capital, magnificent of Ha Long bay, the marvelous scene in developing Ho Chi Minh city. Vietnam is in the bucket list of any travel lover including Pakistani. However, getting Vietnam visa is still a biggest obstacle which prevents Pakistani travelers to Vietnam.   My Vietnam Visa Experience When I planned a visit to Vietnam last year in November, it was certainly a few months ahead of time planning. I tried to shop around within Pakistan, and the cheapest quote for Vietnam Visa I could get was Rs. 25000 ($240) which is definitely too much to spend only for visa. Then I bumped into a girl who posted a blog for Vietnam Visa for Pakistani passports.. I contacted her and when I looked at her facebook profile, it was amazing that we had some mutual friends, mostly travelers from my side.. means she was already helping out people from my side... I asked her to quote me for ...

Where to buy Made in Vietnam clothes in Vietnam?

Vietnam is not only a good place for budget travelers but it is also a well known place for shopping especially for buying clothes. Different choices of International brands made in Vietnam or Made in China products are all available in Vietnam. 1. Should you buy International brands in Vietnam? Yes but do check the price carefully as it is not always true that everything is cheap here. You can find international brands in Shopping malls like: Parkson, Royal city, Vincom….however from what I learn from my clients in Asia, the International brand products in Vietnam is even more expensive than in their countries. They would rather go for Vietnamese products with good quality but reasonable price. Though, you can easily find replica products such as: the North Face, Armani Exchange, Gucci, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Burberry,… at good price in almost touristic areas: around the Old quarter in Hanoi, right besides Hoan Kiem lake or in Sai Gon Square. 2.
