Armenian citizens must obtain a visa before traveling to Vietnam. Here is the complete guide on securing your Vietnam eVisa online, including flight options from Yerevan.
Do Armenian Citizens Need a Visa for Vietnam?
Yes. Armenia is not included in Vietnam's visa exemption program. All individuals holding an Armenian passport must have a valid visa before arriving in Vietnam.
The great news is that Armenian citizens are fully eligible for the Vietnam eVisa. This electronic visa system is the fastest and most practical way to get your entry permit, allowing you to complete the process 100% online.
The Vietnam eVisa allows Armenian citizens to stay in the country for up to 90 days. Always apply at least 1-2 weeks before your planned departure.
Visa Fees and Currency Exchange (AMD to USD)
The Vietnam eVisa fee must be paid online in US Dollars. As of mid-2026, the exchange rate is approximately 1 USD = 368.5 AMD (Armenian Dram). Here are the estimated costs in AMD:
| Visa Type | Cost (USD) | Estimated Cost (AMD) |
|---|---|---|
| eVisa (Single Entry) | $25 USD | ~ 9,212 AMD |
| eVisa (Multiple Entry) | $50 USD | ~ 18,425 AMD |
Please note that exchange rates fluctuate continuously based on market conditions. Your bank may also charge a small international transaction fee.
Flights from Armenia to Vietnam
Currently, there are no direct flights between Armenia and Vietnam. Travelers from Armenia typically depart from Zvartnots International Airport (EVN) in Yerevan.
To reach Vietnam, you will need to book an indirect flight with one or more layovers. Common transit hubs include Doha (Qatar Airways) or Dubai (Emirates/Flydubai) before arriving at Noi Bai International Airport (Hanoi) or Tan Son Nhat International Airport (Ho Chi Minh City).
Vietnam Embassy in Armenia
There is currently no official Vietnam Embassy or Consulate located in Armenia.
If you require traditional consular services, you must contact the nearest Vietnamese diplomatic mission in a neighboring country (such as Russia or Iran). However, for tourism and most business purposes, applying for the eVisa online at evisa.gov.vn is highly recommended and eliminates the need to visit an embassy.
Requirements for Armenian Citizens
To successfully submit a Vietnam eVisa application, Armenian passport holders need to prepare:
- An Armenian passport that is valid for at least 6 months from the intended date of arrival in Vietnam.
- A clear, colored scanned copy or photo of the passport's bio-data page.
- A recent passport-style digital photo (looking straight at the camera, without glasses, against a white background).
- A valid email address where the approved eVisa will be sent.
- A credit or debit card for the online payment of the processing fee.
How to Apply for the Vietnam eVisa
The application process is entirely digital and usually takes about 10-15 minutes to complete:
1. Go to the official Vietnam eVisa portal (evisa.gov.vn). 2. Fill out the online form with your personal and travel information exactly as they appear on your Armenian passport. 3. Upload the clear scan of your passport data page and your portrait photograph. 4. Choose your expected port of entry. 5. Pay the visa fee securely online. 6. Wait for the processing period (normally 3-5 working days) and check your email for the approved eVisa. 7. Print out at least two copies of your eVisa document to present to the immigration officers upon your arrival.
