Overview

Get a 90-day tourist e-visa for Vietnam in 3 working days for USD 25 (single-entry) or USD 50 (multiple-entry).

The Vietnam Tourist Visa (DL) is an entry permit for leisure travel issued by the Immigration Department. It offers single or multiple-entry options for stays up to 90 days, with streamlined e-visa processing. No professional background, employment offer, or sponsorship is required, making it one of Southeast Asia's most accessible tourist visas.

Fees are USD 25 for single-entry or USD 50 for multiple-entry, processed in 3 working days. The visa may be extended once in Vietnam for limited additional stays. However, you cannot convert a DL visa to a work permit while in-country; transitioning to employment requires departing and reapplying. Dependents have no separate visa category under this permit.

This visa is ideal for leisure travelers, backpackers, and digital nomads seeking affordable, hassle-free access to Vietnam for tourism and cultural exploration without employment requirements.
