E-VISA for Vietnam

E-VISA explained

In 2017 the Vietnamese government has launched the new E-VISA service. An E-VISA is an electronic visa that you order online and receive by email. You print it out and bring with you to Vietnam. At the Vietnamese border you show your E-VISA and passport. You will then be allowed entry into Vietnam.
