1) Find out details about the Vietnam embassies located in the neighboring nations. There are established Vietnam embassies in Mexico, Panama, and Brazil, etc. These embassies have different set of rules when it comes to granting visa requests. Hence, visit the website or call them to know about the procedures. Opt for the one that can issue you a visa in the least possible time frame.
2) In broad view, most of the embassies have the same procedure. Fill up the visa application form that has been provided on the embassy website. You can print this form or submit it online if that embassy accepts online requests.
3) You will also need to make a payment at the time of application. Hence, find out about the sum and the preferred currency before beginning the process.
4) After completing the form, affix a colored passport size photo to this form and all the relevant documents. The embassy will also require your original passport along with the form for stamping the visa. Since, you cannot go to the embassy in person; you will have to post the completed form to them. Hire a reliable postal service that allows you to track the deliverables.
5) Once your request is received and accepted by the embassy, the visa will be processed within 5 to 7 business days. In addition to this, send a pre paid envelope to the embassy with your address, so that your visa can be sent to you.
6) The process will definitely be time consuming due to the international postal service, so plan your journey keeping in mind the time involved.
7) Once the visa has been received by you, ensure that the details are correct. For any discrepancy, get in touch with the officials at the embassy for rectification.
8) This visa will allow you to embark on a trip to Vietnam through any mode – air, water, or land.
