Imagine this: You’re sipping strong Vietnamese coffee at a street-side café in Hanoi, the buzz of motorbikes in the background, and a steaming bowl of pho on the way. Now, imagine getting there without long, anxious embassy visits or complex paperwork. Here’s the good news for you, if you’re a Canadian citizen, that dream is just an eVisa away.
What’s a Vietnam eVisa
Instead of visiting an embassy or mailing in your passport, you apply online and get your visa delivered straight to your inbox. Think of it as your digital entry ticket. The Vietnam Immigration Department officially approves it, and yes, it’s legit.
For Canadians, the Vietnam eVisa is both a single-entry and a Multiple-entry visa that lets you stay for a maximum of 90 days. It’s perfect for travelers exploring the buzzing cities, beach towns, and peaceful countryside that Vietnam is known for.
Who’s Eligible
If you hold a Canadian passport that’s valid for at least six months from your arrival date, you’re good to go. Also, your passport should have at least two blank pages, because Vietnam loves its stamps.
How Do You Apply
Grab your laptop or phone and apply with us, go to Vietnam eVisas, or download the mobile app. The process is much smoother than you think:
- Fill out the form – Open the application form, select our country, and start completing the form.
- Upload documents – A clear scan of your passport and a passport-style photo.
- Pay the fee – You can pay the fee using a credit/debit card, or a Mastercard is also acceptable.
- Wait – You’ll typically receive your eVisa by email in 3–5 business days.
Once approved, download it, print it, and keep it with you. You’ll need to show it when entering Vietnam.
Where Can You Enter Vietnam With This eVisa
Only through designated ports, which include 13 international airports, several land crossings, and seaports. So double-check your entry point when booking flights or planning overland trips.
Some popular international airports that accept eVisa holders include:
- Hanoi (Noi Bai International Airport)
- Ho Chi Minh City (Tan Son Nhat International Airport)
- Da Nang International Airport
If you’re planning a Mekong Delta journey or a cruise, make sure the seaport you’re entering through accepts eVisas.
