Visa Requirements
A visa is required for travelers from the US going to Vietnam.
The eVisa is a quick and easy process that allows tourists single entry Vietnam for up to 90 days travel in Vietnam. Foreign citizens must hold a passport valid for at least six (6) months after exit to Vietnam. The eVisa is an electronically issued, single or multiple-entry visa that must be requested at least 10 days before the departure date. Discover Corps recommends you apply for the visa at least 30 days before departure.

The applicant should use the electronic code to access and check the result. If the visa is accepted, the applicant should print the document (form No 2) and show it when arriving in Vietnam.
If you arrive in Vietnam without an appropriate visa (which could be an e-visa) or pre-approval for a visa on arrival, you will be denied entry.
What to do after I receive my E-Visa for Vietnam? Once your application is approved, your E-Visa will be sent via email in PDF format. You must print at least one copy and have it with you at all times when you travel to Vietnam. You will be required to present the printed E-Visa once you arrive in Vietnam.
Passport Requirements
Your passport must be valid for six months beyond your planned stay, and you must have at least one blank visa page (not including the endorsement page).
If you do not have a passport it is important to apply for one as soon as possible. It often takes four to six weeks to process the paperwork for a passport (and even longer during the peak travel season of March to August). If you are a U.S. citizen, we recommend working with G3 Visas and Passports to make the process smooth and easy.
For questions about obtaining or renewing your passport (American citizens) you can visit travel.state.gov.
Make several photocopies of your passport. Leave a copy at home with your family and carry a copy with you at all times when you are overseas for identification purposes, money changing, etc. If you should lose your passport, having a copy will speed up the process of replacing it.
