How To Get the New 90-Day Vietnam Tourist Visa
16.12.2023 - 14:52 / matadornetwork.com
Whether you’re daydreaming about navigating the glittering beehive of Ho Chi Minh City, criss-crossing the chaotic streets of Hanoi, or tanning on the beaches of Da Nang, you’ll eventually encounter the question of what documents you’ll need to travel to Vietnam.
For travelers with passport privilege, it could come as a surprise that securing a tourist visa ahead of time is mandatory, as anyone who travels to Vietnam will learn. Until August of 2023, Vietnam’s tourist visa was only valid for 30 days, causing a lot of headaches for those who wanted to live in Vietnam or use it as a base for traveling around Asia.
I spent a month in Da Nang, Vietnam last year, taking day and weekend trips around the country. I lamented a lot about the 30-day tourist visa, wishing I could stay longer without the headache of a visa run – having to leave the country and re-enter just to secure a new visa. When I spoke with expats who lived in Da Nang full time, many said they were traveling to the nearest border (by land or air), spending enough time there for their new Vietnam visa to process, then turning around and coming right back every month. It seemed like a huge and frequent hassle.
Fortunately, the 90-day Vietnam visa launched in late summer of 2023. Here’s everything to know about getting a 90-day tourist Vietnam visa, plus suggestions on where to base yourself for up to three months in the spectacular country.

Travelers were able to start applying for the updated 90-day tourist visa in August of 2023. It’s an e-Visa, so you’ll apply and acquire it online. There is no visa-on-arrival option for US citizens. Everyone traveling to Vietnam will need a visa (unless you hold a Vietnamese passport), so this process is a necessary evil.
You’ll have two choices when applying for your 90-day Vietnam visa: the single-entry or multiple-entry option. The single-entry visa is $25, while the multiple-entry visa is $50. Their name describes their difference. The single-entry visa is for those who don’t plan to leave Vietnam during the duration of their stay. If you do, you’ll need to re-apply for a new visa to re-enter the country, just like you had to do with the old 30-day visa. A multiple-entry visa allows you to come and go as you please over the course of your allotted 90 days, without the need to apply for another visa.
The application and approval process is the same for both visas, and since the multiple-entry visa costs just $50, the flexibility that the multiple entry option offers is worth it – especially with other beautiful countries like Cambodia and Laos so close by.
On the application, you’ll need to upload a photo of your passport and a passport picture. You can get professional
