Vietnam Reopening for Tourists, With Conditions

I finally purchased my ticket today.

Ironically for me, I'll be arriving in Vietnam on July 4th, USA Independence Day.

Independence and marriage… two words not usually associated. 😝

I assume you are traveling on VN Airlines….

Good luck my friend.

Thanks buddy.

Yeah, I didn't want to do any of the cheaper options involving connecting flights or multiple airports (Japan) so I'll be flying nonstop from SFO to SGN.

Hello everyone, new member here!

Does anyone have any info on applying for e-visa after overstaying?

I overstayed about 2 months back in March (last visa extention valid until 19th Jan) and left on an exit visa after paying a fine. Since then I've seen some people getting denied e-visa even if they only overstayed a few days or couple weeks. If anyone had any experience or info it'd be much appreciated.

- @Rodan M

@plegrove The overstaying fee was actually not that much. 5 mil VND which is about $200, and the process was painless too. My concern now is to comeback to Vietnam.

@Erikji Thanks for replying! Are they going to ask for the $3000 fee to “clear my name from the blacklist” like some posts I've seen floating around?

@OceanBeach92107 Thank you! I think I might have to do just that since it does seem like such an arbitrary occurence…

If it's denied, try an agency like Sunviet.

- @Erikji

Sunviet have not been responding to my emails and Zalo messages for the past 3 weeks......I think that they may have closed in Da Nang!?!

- @QPR_FC

They didn't close, try their FB page "Vietnam visa Expert - Sunviet".
I used it in HCMC, I don't know how their staff is in Danang.

Still 30 days, OB?

My E-visa was approved today, within the 3 working days time period promised.

Anyone with questions about the simple process, let me know.

Hi OB,

When I applied for the eVisa, I have been asked for  writing my "full name = first name middle name last name". On my visa, it's written "họ tên = "my first name"  "my last name". It's not correct but it has been ok for me to enter in Vietnam but I wonder what is the best way for the next times.

Thanks in advance for your advices about this ambiguous case :-)

@SteinNebraska I also arrived Tuesday trouble-free for a 15-day “visa free” entry, UK passport, without any vaccination certificate checks anywhere (travelled via Dubai), I just had to present at TSN immigration the departing ticket for a flight out on July 13. No questions by the airline at check-in or in transit about why I didn't have a visa.
