Vietnam Visa on Arrival for Indian Citizens: Everything You Need to Know in 2025

Planning a trip to Vietnam from India in 2025? If so, you’ve likely come across the term “Visa on Arrival.” For Indian passport holders, this remains one of the most efficient ways to enter Vietnam — but only if you understand the process and prepare correctly. In this guide, we’ll walk you through what Visa on Arrival means, how to apply, what documents you need, and how to skip long queues with Fast Track services upon arrival.


🧭 What Is a Vietnam Visa on Arrival?

A Vietnam Visa on Arrival (VOA) allows eligible travelers to obtain their visa stamp at the airport when arriving in Vietnam. Instead of going through the embassy, you apply online for a Visa Approval Letter, then bring it with you to Vietnam and get your visa stamped at the Visa on Arrival counter.

🛬 This service is available at these international airports:

  • Hanoi (Noi Bai International Airport)
  • Ho Chi Minh City (Tan Son Nhat International Airport)
  • Da Nang International Airport
  • Cam Ranh Airport (Nha Trang)

Are Indian Citizens Eligible for Visa on Arrival?

Yes! Indian citizens are eligible for Visa on Arrival — but only if you apply for the pre-approval letter in advance.

Important notes:

  • You cannot just fly to Vietnam and apply at the airport
  • You must apply online first and receive your official Visa Approval Letter issued by the Vietnam Immigration Department

📋 Required Documents for VOA (Indian Citizens)

To get your visa on arrival, prepare the following:

  • 🛂 Valid Indian passport (valid at least 6 months beyond arrival)
  • 📸 Two passport-sized photos (4×6 cm, white background)
  • 📄 Printed Visa Approval Letter
  • 📝 Completed Entry & Exit Form (Form NA1)
  • 💵 Cash payment in USD for the stamping fee:
    • $25 USD for single entry
    • $50 USD for multiple entry

💡 Tip: Bring exact cash in USD to avoid delays.
