reader Posted May 26, 2020 Posted May 26, 2020 From Viet Nam News Việt Nam approves a list of countries applicable for e-visa HÀ NỘI — From the beginning of July, residents from a number of countries worldwide will be allowed to enter Việt Nam using e-visas. Government also revealed a list of border gates and airports that will accept electronic entry. Eighty countries that will benefit include Austria, Poland, Portugal, UAE, Germany, India, the Republic of Korea, Japan, US, Italy, Poland, France, China, Russia and the UK. Eight airports that will accept e-visas are Nội Bài, Tân Sơn Nhất, Cam Ranh, Đà Nẵng, Cát Bi, Cần Thơ, Phú Quốc and Phú Bài. Việt Nam started a two-year e-visa pilot programme for foreigners from 40 countries on February 1, 2017. The pilot scheme did not require foreigners to be sponsored or invited by organisations or individuals in Việt Nam to be applicable for the e-visas, as long as they have valid passports and are citizens of one of the 40 listed countries. Foreigners are not required to be present at representative agencies of Việt Nam in their countries, get interviewed or scan their fingers to apply for e-visas. They can go directly to the website https://immigration.gov.vn and apply for e-visas themselves. Applications are processed within three working days. Each applicant will be provided with a digital code, with which they can check the application progress and print their e-visas once they have been issued. They can also present the codes at border gates and airports for scanning of their e-visas. The e-visas are valid for 30 days. Each applicant must pay a non-refundable application fee of US$25 via bank transfer. https://vietnamnews.vn/society/717263/viet-nam-approves-a-list-of-countries-applicable-for-e-visa.html eurasian 1 Quote
