The embassy will take at least five working days to process your documents. One your documents are processed, you will be issued a fully stamped Visa. The biggest benefit of applying for Visa through the embassy is that you will have a fully stamped passport in your hands before leaving for Vietnam. However, you will have to travel back and forth to the embassy location several times before the process is complete and bear the expenses on travel and stay. Also, your documents will be forwarded by postal mail, which means you could lose your documents if the package is misplaced or lost in transit.
An easier alternative is the Visa on Arrival procedure. In order to apply for Visa on Arrival, you will have to get in touch with a travel agent based in Vietnam. You will have to fill an online application form and key in your details such as your name, occupation, purpose of visit, duration of stay etc. You can transfer the Visa fees and the travel agent’s service charges through online bank transfer.
The online form will be processed in a couple of days, after which you will be issued a letter of approval. Your travel agent can collect this letter on your behalf and send it to you. On reaching Vietnam, you will have to submit this letter of approval at the Visa on Arrival counter of the airport you arrive in. Along with the letter, you will have to pay the Visa stamping fees at the counter.
It is to be noted that the Visa on Arrival facility is extended only to those travelers who arrive in Vietnam by air. For those taking land routes, it is mandatory that they carry their documents along with them. In case of a cruise ship, the cruise authorities can be contacted for information on Visa on Arrival.
