If you’ve fallen in love with Vietnam and want to stay longer than your tourist visa allows, you might be wondering how to extend your visa legally.
In this 2025 guide, we’ll explain everything you need to know about Vietnam tourist visa extensions: who can apply, how long you can extend, and what alternatives you have.
📌 Can You Extend a Vietnam Tourist Visa in 2025?
As of 2025, Vietnam does NOT offer traditional visa extensions for e-visas or visa exemption entries (15–45 days depending on your nationality). However, travelers can switch to a new visa by doing a visa run or applying for a new visa from within Vietnam using an agency.
✅ Options for Staying Longer in Vietnam:
1. Visa Run (Re-entering Vietnam):
Leave Vietnam to a neighboring country (like Thailand, Cambodia, or Laos), then apply for a new e-visa and return.
-
Pros: Quick, often effective.
-
Cons: May require flights and time; not always suitable if rules change.
2. In-country Visa Renewal via Agent:
Some travel/visa agencies can help convert or extend your stay through their network.
-
Pros: No need to leave Vietnam.
-
Cons: Costs more (service fees $150–300+), and success depends on your passport/nationality.
3. Apply for a Business Visa:
If you want to stay longer or work remotely, some agencies offer business visas valid up to 3 months.
📄 Required Documents (Typical for Extension/Renewal):
-
Valid passport (6+ months remaining)
-
Current visa (tourist or e-visa)
-
Local address in Vietnam
-
Sponsor company (for business visa route)
-
Visa agent service contract (if applying through agency)
