Vietnam visa requirements for Gabonese citizens

Do Gabonese people need to apply for a visa before entering Vietnam?

All Gabonese tourists before coming to Vietnam for tourism or for any other reason, need to apply for an entry visa before coming to Vietnam.

In addition to visa, to enter Vietnam, Gabonese tourists also need to ensure the following 02 entry conditions:

Passport has at least 02 blank pages.

Documents to apply for Vietnam tourist visa include:

Expected border gate/airport to enter Vietnam.

After receiving all the above 3 information, the company or individual sponsoring the Gabonese will carry out procedures to apply for an entry approval letter at the Immigration Department – Ministry of Public Security of Vietnam.

After 5-7 working days, there will be a result of 15-30 days Vietnam Tourist Immigration Official Letter. The next step to do is to paste Vietnam visa at the Embassy or airport.

How to get a visa?

The Vietnam visas are provided in two ways, the first is applying directly at the Vietnam Embassy and the second is getting a visa on arrival (VOA).

However, there is no Vietnam embassy in Gabonese so applicants from this country will have to find Vietnam embassies from surrounding countries to apply from.
