Irish passport holders have REQUIRED a visa to Vietnam. However, there are 2 ways to get a Vietnam visa in Ireland. You can apply to the Embassy or apply for a visa on arrival airport. Therefore, the Vietnam visa fees are varied as it depends on the way, a type of visa, processing time….
1. Apply at the Vietnam Embassy
Irish citizens need to visit the Vietnam Embassy in England, the nearest country, to apply for a Vietnam visa.
Similarly, if you are currently living outside of Ireland, you need to contact the local Embassy/Consulate in the country where you are residing (if any).
It should be noted, all the Vietnam Embassies/Consulates are closed on the weekend. Also, none of them works on both Vietnam and Belgium public holidays.
Importantly, you should contact directly to the Embassy about visa procedures and fees. Overall, you may have to pay for transportation fees to visit the Embassy, mailing fees, expedited service (if any)…
2. Visa on arrival online
Another way is applying for a visa on arrival online. In this way, you don’t need to send off your passport or visit the Embassy. In short, you just have to follow 03 simple steps as below:
- Fill in the secure application form.
- Be received the visa approval letter within 3 working days.
- Print out the letter and submit it on arrival airport to get the visa sticker into your passport.
That’s it!

Importantly, the visa on arrival airport accepts only when you travel by air. If you enter Vietnam via borderland, you have to visit the Consulate to get a visa stamp beforehand.
