You can either apply yourself at Vietnamese embassies or consulates in your country or have a local travel agent (your sponsor) to do a part or full its procedure.
By yourself (at Vietnam Embassy/Consulate in your country):
- Required documents: you have to submit:
- Passport of six months validity
- Visa application forms
- Probably some others required by Vietnam embassy or consulates in your country
Visa forms are available by getting directly at the Embassy/Consulate or by mail carrier with a stamped, self-addressed pre-paid return envelope sent to their Visa section – Vietnam Embassy/Consulate. Request by email is perhaps acceptable (in some cases).
See Visa application form and list of Vietnamese Embassies and Consulates abroad (also available Foreign Embassies and Consulates in Vietnam).
- Processing Time: processing tourist visa application typically takes four to ten working days.
- Cost: the fees vary from embassy to embassy; about $50 in Bangkok and $85 in Washington, for example.
Through travel agency:
Provide two types of visa services: Visa Application letter and Full-packaged service (on-arrival visa). Please refer to the detailed visa procedure and services for more information

Answer to Sir Ojo Paul,
We are very sorry to inform that, at present, the Vietnamese Government do not accept entry for citizens from some nations including yours (Nigerian). This might be due to some diplomatic matters, which are really out of our expectation.
We are sorry that we – as a travel agency – cannot do anything now to help you at present. We suggest you contact directly with the Vietnam Immigration for your specific case. Please see the below for contact of the Vietnam Immigration Dept for direct contacting:
Vietnam Immigration Department (A18)
Address: 40A Hang Bai Str., Hanoi, Vietnam
Tel: 84-(0)4- 38257941
We do hope that in the near future, things will change and we will have chances to welcome you to Vietnam and to serve you at our best!
