2/ Changes in visa application procedures in Vietnam embassies and consulates during Covid-19

The visa application process still can be done at Vietnam embassies and consulate but there are more requirements than before. The applicants must obtain “visa approval letter” from a visa agent in Vietnam first, then use this approval letter to submit visa application at the embassy/consulate. Without the “visa approval letter”, the applicants cannot apply Vietnam visa.

This “visa approval letter” must be applied through a visa agent in Vietnam, and it takes 3-4 weeks to get approved. All you need to do is contact the visa agent in Vietnam and send them the passport photo and application form. The visa agent will prepare all required documents to submit your visa application.

After getting the “visa approval letter” through email, you just need to print it out, and submit it + passport + photos to get visa at the embassy/consulate. Depending on your location, you can ask to get visa at the nearest embassy/consulate.

Vietnam embassy/consulate can ask some other documents to prove the quarantine procedure in Vietnam during pandemic period, so you should book quarantine service and get the confirmation before applying visa at the embassy/consulate.
