At the border

  • Passport must remain valid at least 30 days longer than the e-Visa validity period.
  • Enter your full name exactly as in the passport's machine-readable line; incorrect or incomplete declarations can lead to refusal.
  • Enter and exit only through designated international border gates; you may leave through a different gate from the one you entered.
  • Show your e-Visa at the border; if you are stamped in under a visa exemption instead, your permitted stay follows that stamp.
  • The Immigration Department recommends completing the online pre-arrival form at prearrival.immigration.gov.vn before travel.
  • Visitors must register temporary residence through their hotel or host at each place they stay; work requires a work permit.
