Read guideVietnam e-Visa: preparing accurate passport and trip details
Use Vietnam’s official electronic visa portal and check its current instructions for your travel document, entry arrangements and application details.
Use the current official portal
Vietnam’s Immigration Department directs electronic visa applicants to evisa.gov.vn and thithucdientu.gov.vn. Keep the official address in your preparation notes so you can return to the application and result service without searching through advertisements.
Review uploaded and extracted information
The government application instructions call for a portrait and passport biodata image. Compare every entered or extracted detail with the document itself. An upload does not remove your responsibility to check spelling, document numbers and dates.
Match the permission to the journey
Check the applicable entry and exit checkpoints and the dates and entries you are requesting. Keep proposed plans clearly identified. Retain the application reference and follow the official result instructions; a payment or submission acknowledgement is not approval.
