Tourist Visa

hey fitzy. in your visa application form, you can select a 3 month single or multiple entry visa. it would be best and cheaper option to get it before you arrive rather than get an extension after you have arrived. good luck!

Dear Fitzie,

You can contact me at******for entry visa procedure ( Visa on arrival ) .

Best regards,

Save some $ , do the VOA . Get a 3 month single entry if your not planning on leaving the country . You can then extend twice more in-country for $45 , 3 month , single entry
I can recommend hotels-in-vietnam or Vietnamvisapro . It will only take about 2 days to get your VOA letter
I also understand that Vietnam is also considering a 1 year visa to Aussies , so maybe that might be in effect prior to your departure
I would do the VOA about 2 weeks in advance , no sooner

Dear sir
I'm happy that you will travel to Vietnam in the next year. So to your question i would like to answer follow the information below:
The one who want to come to Vietnam need a approval letter provide by immigration office.
So you can chose 3 months visa with single or multiple entry is the best choice.

Its not just 25usd, but another 45usd(?) at the airport. Plus exchange rate, fees. You may as well do it before hand.
