How to apply for a Vietnam visa?
The first is applying at the Vietnam Embassy, the second is applying for a visa on arrival airport (VOA), and the last one is e-Visa.
1. Vietnam visa at the embassy
You can directly contact the Vietnamese Embassy in the UAE (if you are living in the United Arab Emirates), or in a country where you are settling before coming to Vietnam.
To apply for a Vietnam Visa, you must prepare the necessary documents:
- A visa application form filled in with your information, printed, and attached with your photo and your markings.
- Your original passport
- Invitation letter from Vietnam (in case you want to apply for a business visa)
- Other necessary documents at the request of the Embassy.
You should contact the Embassy directly to ask for more detailed information to have the best preparation, to avoid having to come back many times.
There is currently the 01 Vietnam Embassy office in UAE. That means your Vietnam visa application or consular legalization can be processed more quickly and conveniently than you are in a country without the Vietnam Embassy or Consulate. Below is the contact information for the office.

2. E- visa
The E-visa is valid for only 30 days with a single entry. Also, it takes 3 – 4 working days to get the result and visa expedited service is not work for this case.
3. Vietnam Visa on arrival airport
Vietnam visa on arrival airport is the best option for applicants from this country. You can choose to apply for a visa valid for 1 or 3 months, for tourist or business purposes. There are only 03 simple steps that need to complete as below:
