Tourist visa transfer hcmc

Just got my new uk passport back. I went to hcmc immigration before applying and was told to transfer my 3 month visa would be 5 bucks. -- Just went back today and was told it's five bucks but I can't do it myself, I have to get a travel agent to sponsor me as it's a tourist visa. So... much more cash I guess? Who should I ask? Not happy about this :(

Hello lifemagic,

I suggest you to look for information in the article Tourist visa in Vietnam in the Expat Guide section.

You may find interesting information.

Thank You,

Thanks. It doesn't contain any information about a transfer of visa though.
