1. CAN I APPLY FOR A VIETNAM VISA ON HOLIDAYS AND WEEKENDS?
According to the Procedures Guide for Foreigners and Vietnamese holding foreign passports of the Immigration Department – Ministry of Public Security, visa applications for foreigners in Vietnam are accepted every week from Monday morning to Friday morning (excluding holidays).
This means that the Immigration Department in Vietnam and Vietnamese Embassies/Consulates abroad will not work on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays.
In certain situations, you may find yourself needing to travel to a foreign country on an urgent basis, without the opportunity to apply for a visa through the regular process. Is it possible to apply for a Vietnam visa during weekends and holidays in such cases?
The answer is YES. However, you will have to pay a higher fee than the fee if you apply for a visa on weekdays.
An expedited visa service is available for Vietnam, which is commonly known as the Urgent Vietnam visa – Work on weekends or holidays. Instead of waiting 05-07 days for a traditional visa application at the Embassy/Consulate or 03-05 days for an online visa/evisa application, you only need to wait 1-4 hours to receive your visa and be able to travel to Vietnam
2. WHO REQUIRE VIETNAM VISA ON WEEKENDS AND HOLIDAYS?
Visa applications are now accepted on weekends and holidays for specific cases:

- Entering Vietnam through the airport border gate during hours outside of airport office hours such as 00:00 AM – 8:00 AM; 11:00 AM -2:00 PM and after 4:00 PM.
