Step-by-Step Application Process

1

Open the official e-Visa portal

Go directly to the Vietnam government's e-Visa website — bypassing third-party "expedite" sites avoids inflated fees and protects your data. Bookmark the URL before applying.

2

Complete the application and pay online

Fill in personal, passport and travel details, upload a passport photo and bio-page scan, and pay the official fee with a credit or debit card. Submit and save the reference number.

3

Receive and print the approval

The approved e-Visa arrives by email as a PDF. Print at least one paper copy and keep a digital copy on your phone — both are commonly required at the airline check-in and the border.

Required Documents

  • Passport from Macao valid at least 6 months beyond entry
  • High-resolution scan of the passport bio-page
  • Recent passport-style digital photo meeting portal specifications
  • Confirmed return or onward flight booking
  • Hotel reservation or address of host in the destination
  • Travel insurance certificate (where mandated)
  • Credit or debit card to pay the official e-Visa fee

Important Tips

  • Apply only via the official government portal — search for ".gov" or the embassy site, never the first ad result.
  • Submit at least 7 days before departure; rare manual reviews can extend the wait by several days.
  • Print the approval — many airlines refuse boarding without a paper copy at check-in.
  • Double-check the passport number on the approval against your passport; typos are rejected at the border.

Easiest Way to Get It

Apply on the official portal at least a week before travel, pay with a card, then print the PDF approval the moment it arrives — that single sheet plus the matching passport is everything the border needs.

Visa rules can change. Always verify with the official embassy.

Discover Vietnam

Vietnam, a nation of breathtaking natural beauty and a complex, resilient history, is one of Southeast Asia's most captivating destinations. Stretching from the misty emerald rice terraces of Sapa in the north to the vibrant, labyrinthine waterways of the Mekong Delta in the south, Vietnam offers a spectacular sensory experience. Discover the surreal limestone karsts of Ha Long Bay, the lantern-lit streets of ancient Hoi An, and the energetic, scooter-filled boulevards of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. Known for its world-renowned street food, rich imperial legacy in Hue, and stunning coastlines like Da Nang and Nha Trang, Vietnam is a place where deep-rooted traditions and a dynamic modern spirit coexist in perfect harmony.

Hanoi
The thousand-year-old capital, famous for its colonial architecture, the bustling Old Quarter, and its incredible street food culture.
Ho Chi Minh City
Formerly Saigon, a high-octane global hub of commerce and culture, home to French colonial landmarks and a skyline defined by modern skyscrapers.
Ha Long BayHoi An Ancient TownImperial City of HuePho (Noodle Soup)Banh Mi (Baguette Sandwich)
Best Time: February to April (Spring) and August to October (Autumn) for the most pleasant weather across the entire country; weather varies significantly from North to South
Currency: Vietnamese Dong (VND)
Daily Budget: $30-70/day (Offers incredible value; high-end luxury is available at a fraction of Western costs)
Safety & Scams
Generally very safe for travelers; exercise caution against petty theft and bag-snatching in crowded areas of Ho Chi Minh City; crossing the street can be intimidating due to motorcycle traffic—do so at a slow, steady pace; tap water is not safe to drink—bottled water is cheap and essential.
Getting Around
Domestic flights are efficient for long distances; the 'Reunification Express' train offers a scenic way to travel between Hanoi and HCMC; sleeper buses are a popular budget option; 'Grab' is the go-to app for ride-hailing (bikes and cars).
Cultural Etiquette
Respect for elders is a core value; remove shoes before entering homes and some pagodas; dress modestly when visiting religious sites; avoid public displays of affection; 'losing face' is a sensitive concept—always remain calm and polite.
Internet & Connectivity
Digital infrastructure is highly advanced; 4G/LTE/5G is cheap and ubiquitous via Viettel and Vinaphone; high-speed fiber Wi-Fi is standard in almost every hotel, hostel, and cafe in the country.
