When purchasing an e-ticket, you must have an itinerary receipt (a printed electronic ticket that the airline agency sends by email to the buyer, or the buyer receives it by another agreed method).
To apply for a Vietnamese visa at the embassy or consulate of Vietnam, you need to submit the following documents:
– a visa approval letter from the authority responsible for migration in Vietnam, guaranteed by the inviting Vietnamese party. The visa support number is communicated to the employee of the consular department of the embassy or consulate general of Vietnam when submitting documents;
– a foreign passport;
– 2 photos sized 4x6 or 3x4 cm.
Requirements for obtaining a Vietnamese visa may change, so on the website vnvisa.ru you can always find current information on applying for a visa to Vietnam.
After submitting the required documents, you must fill out a form. Also be prepared to pay a consular fee, the amount of which depends on the duration of the visa. The fee for a regular entry/exit visa is $20-40 depending on urgency.
There is also a mechanism for obtaining a visa on arrival in Vietnam. You can use this option if you have a visa support letter (invitation) and only at three airports: Tan Son Nhat (Ho Chi Minh City), Da Nang, and Noi Bai (Hanoi).
Let's summarize. If you travel to Vietnam without a visa when one is required, then before the trip you need a visa support letter. In other words, a document from the migration service stating that there are no restrictions on visiting that person in Vietnam.
To apply for a visa, you need to contact an organization in Vietnam that has the right to do so. Most often it is a travel agency. In the age of the Internet, this is done online. The tourist's contact information, date and place of birth, citizenship, place of work and position, foreign passport number, entry and exit dates are communicated to the appropriate company.
If a foreigner is traveling only to Phu Quoc Island for less than 15 days, then, according to a government order, they have the opportunity to fly to the island without a visa. This requirement applies to those who cross the border of neighboring states only to Phu Quoc and nowhere else. Naturally, this procedure is especially convenient for those who wish to vacation only on Phu Quoc. The foreign passport must be valid for at least 45 days. If a tourist wishes to stay on the island for more than 15 days or continue their trip to other places in Vietnam, they must apply for a visa on site.
