Vietnam Electronic Visa (E-Visa) is Officially Extended for Canadian up to 2021

The Vietnam Government just approved to continue the E-visa program up to 2021 for 46 countries, included Canada.

Vietnam Electronic Visa (e-Visa) is an official document granted by the Immigration of Vietnam which permits the holder to enter into and travel within Vietnam. It is an alternative entry visa issued at the embassies of Vietnam and visa on arrival. The e-Visa is a single-entry visa, and the maximum duration of stay in Vietnam is 30 days, which cannot be extended and converted to other types of visa.

In January 2017, the Government of Vietnam introduced this online Visa system (e-Visa) for 40 countries. It is used for promoting tourism of Vietnam, as the travelers no longer had to visit the embassy to get their visa. In December 2017, Vietnam has expanded the e-Visa program by adding 6 countries. In addition, the e-Visa is enlarged to use for both tourist purpose and business purpose.

In October 2018, after a successful period of experimenting this policy, the Government of Vietnam decided to continue e-Visa program up to January 2021. And depend on how successful it is, this program can be lasted longer later.

At the present, citizens from 46 countries can apply for a tourist e-Visa or a business e-Visa depending on which purpose they visit Vietnam. Travelers who use the E-visa program can apply and make payment online, then receive the e-Visa via email before travelling to Vietnam.
