Now, citizens from the United Arab Emirates are eligible to apply for the Vietnam e-Visa. This means that it is possible to apply for a visa online which allows travelers to enter Vietnam for tourism purposes for up to 30 days. The e-Visa is a single entry into Vietnam. This means that if you want to exit Vietnam before the 30 days are up and then re-enter, you will need to apply for another visa.
The e-Visa is an electronic travel authorization that has made it much easier for travelers to obtain a visa. This is why it is one of the best alternatives for travelers, because you do not have to go through the hassle of queueing to get the passport stamp or visit a Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate in order to get your visa. All you need to do is have a smartphone, tablet or computer and be connected to WiFi.
Yes. It is necessary for those with an Emirati passport to have a Vietnamese visa in order to travel in the country. Those who are visiting for tourism purposes and wants to stay in the country for no more than 30 days, can travel on a single-entry Vietnam visa. Those who want to stay for longer than 30 days or who needs to make multiple visits can apply for a multiple-entry visa which lasts up to six months.
It is very easy for Emirati citizens to apply for their Vietnam tourist visa online. There is no need to go to the consulate or send away any important documents. You only need to fill out an application online.
The Vietnam e-Visa is electronic and will be delivered to the applicant via email once it has been approved of. Travelers should print out a copy of their e-Visa confirmation and have it ready to present at the border control along with their passports.
If applicants hold dual citizenship, they must enter Vietnam using the same passport they specified on the visa application form. Citizens from United Arab Emirates should therefore use their Emirati passport. Be careful so that you bring the correct travel documents when visiting Vietnam, otherwise it may cause complications.
Before applying for the visa, it is important to see the requirements for Emirati citizens. You will find the visa requirements below:
It is important that you provide all of the information listed above regarding personal details, travel documents and bio-data if applicable. Applicants will also be asked to answer a few questions regarding their health, medical history and vaccine information.
Applicants will also be asked to include the dates they will be traveling as well as the address of their accommodation in Vietnam. Therefore, it is advisable to have the details of your trip available before applying. Do note that in order to pay for the e-visa, you will have to have a credit or debit card. The prices vary depending on the type of visa you are applying for.
The e-visa application is very easy to navigate through. Applicants will be asked to enter basic information such as name, date of birth and travel document information. What makes the e-Visa so popular is that it only takes a few minutes to complete.
You can fill out the online application from anywhere in the world, as long as you have internet access. After collecting the necessary documents such as passport, the application will be very easy to fill in. It is advisable to review all information very carefully before submitting. If there are any errors to your application, you will have to re-do the process again, which will delay your e-visa application. Therefore, it is always best to review it thoroughly.
Getting the e-visa for Emirati citizens should not take more than 3 business days, but there has been delays in the past.
