Vietnam will pilot granting electronic visa to foreign tourists in 2017 and 2018 since January 1, 2017.
Accordingly, procedures for visa application and fee payment will be conducted online in a bid to increase transparency and convenience for tourists.
It will take three days to process application for an e-visa valid for 30 days. The visa does not require letters of guarantee or invitation.
