Japanese citizens DO NOT need an entry visa for a stay of a maximum of 15 days in Vietnam. It should be noted, after your 1st visa exemption period, you have to wait outside Vietnam for at least 30 days to get the next visa exemption period. Therefore, you need to apply for a visa to Vietnam when you want to spend more than 15 days in this country or a gap between two visa-free is less than 30 days.
Currently, there are 2 ways to get a Vietnam visa from Japan.
Note: Besides a Vietnam visa, your passport MUST be valid over 6 months beyond arrive time.
