Vietnam Tourist Visa for Indian Citizens: The Ultimate 2026 Guide

With its stunning coastline, rich history, and world-class street food, Vietnam has become a top destination for Indian travelers in 2026. Whether you are planning a trip from Delhi, Mumbai, or even from abroad via Romania, getting your visa is now a completely digital and streamlined process.

As of May 2026, Indian passport holders require a visa for most entry points in Vietnam. However, the 90-day E-visa makes the application process easier and more accessible than ever before.

1. Visa Options for Indians in 2026

Indian citizens have three main ways to obtain a tourist visa for Vietnam:

The 90-Day E-visa (Recommended): This is the most popular choice in 2026. It is valid for up to 90 days and available for both Single and Multiple entries. The entire process is 100% online, meaning you do not need to visit an embassy or send your physical passport anywhere.

Visa on Arrival (Emergency Use): This is best for last-minute travelers. You obtain an “Approval Letter” through an agency first, then receive the actual visa stamp upon arrival at an international airport in Vietnam.

Embassy Visa (Traditional): You can still apply directly at the Vietnam Embassy in New Delhi or the Consulate in Mumbai. This is typically reserved for specialized visa types or stays exceeding 90 days.

2. Mandatory Requirements for Indian Citizens

To ensure your application is approved on the first try, prepare these documents:

• Passport: Must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your arrival date with at least 2 blank pages.

• Portrait Photo: A digital 4x6cm photo, white background, looking straight, without glasses.

• Passport Scan: A clear, high-resolution digital scan of your passport’s bio-page.

• Digital Arrival Card: New for 2026, travelers entering via major airports like Tan Son Nhat (SGN) must complete a digital arrival declaration 72 hours before landing.

3. Vietnam Visa Fees for Indians (Official 2026)

• Single-Entry E-visa: 25 USD government fee.

• Multiple-Entry E-visa: 50 USD government fee.

• Processing Time: Typically 3 to 5 working days. Urgent services (1-4 hours) are available for an additional service fee.

4. Special Exemption: Phu Quoc Island

Indian tourists can visit Phu Quoc Island visa-free for up to 30 days, provided they fly directly to the island or transit through an international terminal without leaving the transit area. If you plan to visit the mainland (Hanoi, Da Nang, Ho Chi Minh City), you MUST have a valid visa.
