Visa on arrival is a rather new way as it is ordered online only if you travel by air. You just go online and work with a Vietnamese visa service. There are four steps for you to obtain your visa on arrival to Vietnam, that takes you only 2 business days only (One day for urgent situations). You have to complete the approval, then spend the money for service fee; get the visa approval letter, and pick your visa at arrival airports.
Firstly, you have to fill in the application form given in advance including your personal detail and send it via email to the service you use. The next step is to confirm your data and pay the service fee will receive a confirmation that your application form continues to be delivered to the organization successfully. If all the information is exact, the service charge will be paid through some reliably secure third parties like Paypal, Xoom or WU. It is certain that the money will be held in security because of these services. Your data is going to be listed in the Vietnam Immigration Department in Vietnam to obtain the approval letter after your payment confirmation.
After two days, a visa approval letter will be sent to you by email. Your projects would be to print it out and produce it towards the Vietnam arrival airports (Hanoi - Noi Bai Int'l Airport, Ho Chi Minh City - Tan Son Nhat Int'l Airport and Danang - Danang Int'l Airport). The Vietnam Immigration Department sent the original approval letter to the Visa Company and fax towards the Immigration Office in your arrival at the airport in Vietnam. Therefore, although your approval letter is in grayscale, it's accepted because the Immigration Dept checks and screens your application very strictly.
The last step is to buy the stamp for your visa. Whenever you come to the Vietnam's airport upon arrival to get the visa stamped on your passport, you are required to fill in the visa form, attach your photos and spend the money for visa stamping fee straight to the Immigration officer. The stamping fee depends on the kind of visa you're applying (30 days single, 30 days multiple, Three month single, 1 month multiple,...). Please keep your visa approval letter with you since you will still need to show it towards the airlines inside your country when you check in one more time.
When apply a visa on arrival, don't forget bring this stuff with you for your arrival airport:
- Photographs should be 2x2 inches in size, identical, taken within the past Six months.
- The look size in the bottom of the chin to the peak of the head ought to be between 1 inch and 13/8 inches.
