All required fields in the application form must be filled with care and precision. For Name and contact in Vietnam, please provide the name of the first accommodation or the name of your acquaintance or business.

Visa dates are not flexible. A visa will be valid from the entry date to the exit date as printed. You can visit and stay in Vietnam any time between these two dates, i.e. you cannot enter Vietnam before the entry date and you must leave by the exit date. Therefore, you should be clear about the DATE OF ENTRY AND EXIT on your application form.

Visa rules and fees for children should follow the same procedure as adults if they have their own passports. Children who are included in parents passports do not need separate visas and are not charged (however, their names must be stated in their parents application form with one accompanying photograph). The parents should sign the applications on behalf of children under 14 years old.

Once the application is with the Embassy, there is no possibility of any change.

Fees and charges once received are not refundable, except in case of rejection.

Dos and Donts

The Embassy recommends application by post so as to avoid long queue and save your time and ours.

Please do not purchase tickets to Vietnam before you obtain a visa. The visa process is not bound by your travel plan.

Please allow sufficient time for visa processing. Please take note of the time required to process your application and check carefully with your local post office to get hold of the posting time (For your information: applications sent from another country to UK may take up to three weeks for turnaround).

Please retain the post office Tracking Number after you send your application by post to keep track of your passport. Do not call the Embassy to track down your application.

Please do not contact the Embassy to chase your application (whether it has been received, processed and returned, by post or by fax), your enquiry will not be accepted, nor will the Embassy confirm the progress of processing. However, you may contact us for this purpose after a reasonable time only, e.g three weeks after the application is sent out.

The Embassy is not responsible for any loss or damage to redundant documents not required by us.

Abusive language and behaviour towards the Embassy staff will not be tolerated and will affect the applications of the persons concerned.
