FAQs

Can you work on a tourist visa?
No. If you have a tourist visa, you are not allowed to work in Vietnam or engage in business-related activities.
What to do if your eVisa for Vietnam expires?
If your visa expires and you are still in Vietnam, you must go to the nearest Vietnam Immigration Department office as soon as possible to report your situation. You can overstay by paying a fee and, depending on your situation, you may be granted an exit visa or an extension.
Can you extend your stay with the Tourist Visa?
Yes. A tourist visa can be extended by obtaining a visa extension or renewal. It is important to initiate this process before your current visa expires in order to avoid penalties.
Can the Vietnam Tourist visa be changed once it has been processed?
Once the visa is processed, then it is not possible to change it or modify the details.
Do I need a transit visa to stop in Vietnam?
It depends. If you stay within the transit area, the connecting flight departs within 24 hours of your arrival in Vietnam and you possess a valid passport and a confirmed onward ticket to a third country, then you do not need a transit visa. In other cases you must apply for one.
