A complete walkthrough of the 2026 Vietnam eVisa application form. Learn how to fill out every section correctly to avoid rejections.

The Official eVisa Application Form

Filling out the Vietnam eVisa application form can be daunting, but getting it right the first time is essential. Any typo or mismatch with your passport can result in your eVisa being delayed, rejected, or worse—you being denied boarding at the airport.

This 2026 guide will walk you through the official eVisa form step-by-step.

Step 1: Access the Portal and Upload Documents

Always start at the official government website. Avoid third-party sites that charge excessive fees unless you are intentionally using a trusted agency.

  • Upload your Portrait Photo (4x6cm, white background)
  • Upload your Passport Data Page Scan (clear, no glare)
  • Name your files simply (e.g., photo.jpg and passport.jpg) to avoid upload errors

Step 2: Personal Information

Fill in this section exactly as it appears on the machine-readable lines at the bottom of your passport data page.

  • Full Name: Enter your Last Name, First Name, and Middle Name
  • Date of Birth: Format is strictly DD/MM/YYYY
  • Current Nationality: Select the nationality of the passport you are using to apply
  • Religion: If you do not practice a religion, you can simply type 'None' or 'No'

Step 3: Passport Information

Carefully enter your passport details:

  • Passport Number: Enter it exactly as shown. Do not include spaces
  • Type: Select 'Ordinary' (unless you hold an Official or Diplomatic passport)
  • Date of Issue & Date of Expiry: Double-check these dates. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned stay

Step 4: Trip Details

Outline your travel plans:

  • Intended Length of Stay: Enter the number of days you plan to stay (maximum is 90 days)
  • Intended Date of Entry: You can enter Vietnam on or after this date, but not before
  • Allowed to enter through checkpoint: Select your entry port carefully from the 33 eligible ports
  • Exit through checkpoint: Select your planned departure port

If you change your plans, you can enter through a different eligible checkpoint, but it's best to be as accurate as possible to avoid questioning at immigration.

Step 5: Contact Information in Vietnam

Provide details about where you will be staying:

  • Intended temporary residential address: Provide the name and address of your first hotel or accommodation. If you haven't booked yet, provide a prospective hotel's details
  • City/Province: Select the province where your hotel is located (e.g., Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang)
