apply-for-a-visa-for-foreigners-in-danang

Currently, only a few countries are exempt from visa requirements based on international treaties to which Vietnam is a party, has a commercial presence, or is a partner with Vietnam, and is eligible for visa exemption under statutory provisions.

For other foreign nationals, those wishing to enter Vietnam must determine the appropriate visa type based on their purpose (tourism, investment, work, study, etc.). The procedures, documents, costs, and duration of stay will depend on the specific type of visa. Not everyone is familiar with the regulations concerning this matter. Below, Luat Duong Gia introduces its visa application services for foreigners in Da Nang.

1. What is a visa?

A visa, also known as an entry visa, is a document issued by the competent authority (consulate) of a country that verifies the holder’s right to enter that country. Depending on whether it is for single or multiple entries, the duration of stay permitted by the visa will vary.

Not all countries require a visa for entry. Some countries have waived visa requirements, such as Southeast Asian countries and a few other special nations. Therefore, foreigners wishing to enter Vietnam must have a visa and other necessary documents as required, except in cases where a visa exemption applies.

2. What types of visas are there?

There are two main types of visas:

Immigrant Visa: This type is used for entry and permanent residency in a country, typically under categories such as parental sponsorship for children, spousal visas, etc.

Non-Immigrant Visa: This type allows entry into a country for a specified period, including categories such as tourism, business, work, medical treatment, labor cooperation, study, diplomacy, and politics.

Here are specific types of visas:

  • Tourist Visa: This visa allows foreigners to enter a country for sightseeing and tourism. The validity is generally no more than 30 days per entry, with the possibility of an extension after 30 days.
  • Student Visa: This visa allows international students to stay in the country for an extended period based on the duration of their academic program.
  • Business Visa: One of the most common visa types for foreigners entering a country for business-related activities or work assignments.
  • Work Visa: A visa issued to foreigners working in Vietnam, either requiring or exempting a work permit.
  • Investor Visa: A visa granted to foreign investors or representatives of foreign organizations that establish or invest in companies within the host country.
  • Family Visit Visa: This visa is issued to foreigners whose parents, spouses, children, etc., reside in another country. It is valid for 12 months and can be extended or converted into a temporary residence card for family visits.
  • Electronic Visa (e-Visa): An online visa issued to foreigners for tourism, family visits, work, etc., with a maximum validity of 30 days. This visa is only available to citizens of certain countries.

3. How to get a Vietnam visa?

To enter Vietnam, a foreigner needs a visa issued by the Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate. A Vietnamese visa can be granted while in a third country or from within Vietnam.

Citizens of the following countries can receive a free entry visa to Vietnam for the duration listed below:

  • ASEAN countries: from 14 to 30 days;
  • Chile and Panama: 90 days; and
  • Belarus, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Norway, Russia, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, and the UK (British citizens only): 45 days (the gap of at least 30 days between two visa-free entries has been removed as per the new immigration law).

People of all nationalities can enter Vietnam on a single-entry visa for a duration of up to 90 days, using Vietnam’s new e-visa application system. Immigration Law has prescribed three working days for the processing time for an e-visa after completing registration and fee payment.

However, the processing time may vary depending on the number of applications. Therefore, applicants are strongly advised to submit their applications 2 weeks prior to arrival in Vietnam.

4. Visa Application Procedure in Da Nang

Regarding visa procedures, each country or territory will have its own regulations. You can contact the Embassy of the destination country or visa support services for detailed procedures, but most follow these general steps:

Step 1: Determine your destination.

The country you plan to visit will greatly affect your visa process. If this is your first time applying for a visa to travel abroad, you should research countries with relaxed visa policies to increase your chances of approval.

Step 2: Identify the purpose of your trip and prepare your documents.

Depending on your purpose, the consular office may require you to provide additional necessary documents. Knowing these requirements will help you prepare your application more thoroughly and quickly.

Step 3: Research where to apply for a visa.

A visa can be issued directly or through the consulate of the destination country. If there is no embassy or consulate, you may need to go to a third country that has these offices to complete the visa application process.

Step 4: Complete the application procedure and wait for your visa.

To avoid issues with paperwork, it is advisable to apply for your visa at least half a month in advance. Do not wait until the last minute, as visa delays can affect your travel plans.
