The biggest route for obtaining a visa is the embassy. However, Seychelles does not have any inland Vietnam embassy and hence the citizens need to go a different way for obtaining visas. This is the procedure for getting a Vietnam embassy visa:
1) Find out details about the embassies located in the neighboring countries. These embassies have their own set of rules when it comes to processing your visa requests. Hence, visit their official websites for all the information. Go for the one that can give you a visa in the shortest possible turnaround time.
2) Most of the embassies have a similar kind of visa process. Completely fill up the visa application form that has been provided on the embassy website. You may take out a print of this form or submit it online if the embassy has an online facility.
3) You will also have to make a payment at the time of submission. Hence, find out about the fee and the preferred currency before initiating the process.
4) After completing the form, affix a latest, passport size, colored photo to this form and arrange all the required documents. The embassy will also need your original passport along with the form for stamping the visa. Since, you cannot visit the embassy; you will have to mail the application form to them. Hire a professional postal service that allows you to track the consignment.
5) Once your form is accepted by the embassy, the visa will be processed in the next 5 to 7 working days. In addition to this, send along a pre paid envelope to the embassy, so that your visa can be sent to you.
6) The process of visa is going to be time consuming due to the overseas postal service, so plan your trip keeping this in mind.
7) Once the visa has been received, verify that the details are accurate. For any discrepancy, get in touch with the embassy for rectification.
8) This visa will allow you to embark on a journey to Vietnam through any mode – air, water, or land.
