You can check with the embassy officials if the procedure can be carried out through post. While filling up the form at the embassy, you will have to submit your valid and original Afghan passport, a recent passport size photograph and a self-addressed envelope. Your passport should have a validity of at least six months and a few pages left for stamping. On completing the form, all your documents along with your passport will be submitted at the embassy for processing.
The embassy takes about at least five working days in order to process all documents. Once the form is processed, you will be sent the Visa. You can now carry this document along with you to gain entry into Vietnam. Besides submitting the relevant documents, it is important that you pay the mandatory Visa fees to the embassy. The fees can easily be paid in favour of the Embassy of Vietnam by way of money order or cashier’s cheque. The major benefit of applying through the embassy is that you will have the Visa in your hands before leaving for Vietnam.
However, with the amount of time and expenditure required in this process, it is not a popular option for Visa application. This is where the Visa on Arrival procedure scores over the standard process of Visa application from the embassy. In order to apply for Visa on Arrival, you will have to get in touch with a reliable travel agent based in Vietnam. You can fill up the online application form on the agent’s website and then make the payment to the agent as Visa fees. You will be required to fill in all your details and state the purpose of your visit for Visa approval.
You can choose from three options – business, tourist and transit, based on the nature of your visit. The business Visa comes with a validity of one month, three months and six month. The tourist Visa comes with a validity of one month and transit Visa offers a validity of less than five days. Once the form is processed, you will be issued a letter of approval, which can be collected by your agent and sent to you.
You will have to carry this letter of approval with you and submit it at the Visa on Arrival counter on reaching the Vietnam airport. Along with the letter of approval, you will be required to submit Visa stamping fees in cash at the counter. The Visa on Arrival facility is extended to only those who arrive in Vietnam by air. For those who take the land routes, carrying the Visa along with their passport is mandatory.
