Direct Answer
If you applied on evisa.gov.vn and it's still "Processing" with your flight approaching, don't submit a second application. Provide your registration code to request priority escalation on the existing file — the government fee you already paid isn't charged again. Worth knowing: there's currently no Vietnamese Embassy in Ireland, but the e-visa system itself is entirely online, so this doesn't affect your ability to apply or escalate.

Why Applications From Ireland Sometimes Run Long
- Time difference. Ireland is roughly 6 hours behind Vietnam (GMT+7 vs. GMT/BST) — a late-evening submission from Dublin can land well into Vietnam's next working day rather than the same one, adding an apparent day of delay that's really just the time-zone gap.
- High application volume on a given day, extending routine queue times — nothing wrong with your application specifically
- A photo or scan flagged for a closer look, often resolved quickly once caught, but adding a review cycle
- A Vietnamese public holiday landing inside the processing window — these pause the clock entirely, not just slow it
A Fact Worth Knowing: No Embassy in Ireland
There's currently no Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate in Ireland. This doesn't affect the e-visa system itself, which is entirely online and never requires an embassy visit regardless of your country of residence — but if you ever need embassy-level consular assistance for something the online system doesn't cover, that would go through a Vietnamese diplomatic mission in another country. Worth knowing upfront, so it doesn't come as a surprise if you go looking for one.
What Speeding Up Actually Means
- Works with your original registration number — nothing about the application itself changes
- Does not cancel or replace your existing file
- Requests priority handling within the same government review process
- Your visa, once approved, is the same legitimate document either way

Requirements and Entry
Irish citizens are not on Vietnam's visa-exemption list — a visa is required for any trip length. The e-visa covers arrival at major international airports across Vietnam (Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, and others among the 83 total designated entry points nationwide), along with land and sea entry points. Whichever Irish airport you're departing from — Dublin, Cork, Shannon, Belfast, or elsewhere — the visa requirement and application process are identical.
Why a Second Application Isn't the Fix
Submitting a fresh application when the first feels slow is a common instinct — but two registration records under the same passport can trigger a manual deduplication check that typically takes longer to resolve than either application would have alone. Speeding up the existing file avoids creating this second problem.
What No Agency Can Honestly Guarantee
Speeding up improves priority, not the outcome. No agency can guarantee approval, since Vietnamese immigration makes the final decision on every application regardless of processing speed.
Our Refund Guarantee
100% refund on the processing fee if we don't deliver your approved e-visa within the timeframe you paid for.
No agency can guarantee Vietnamese immigration's exact decision time — but this refund backs the processing commitment itself.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Irish citizens speed up a Vietnam e-visa already submitted?
Yes — the existing application can be prioritized without submitting a new one. Provide your registration code to request escalation.
Do Irish citizens need a visa for Vietnam?
Yes — Ireland is not on Vietnam's visa-exemption list. A visa is required for any trip length.
Is there a Vietnamese Embassy in Ireland?
No — there is currently no Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate in Ireland. Irish passport holders needing embassy-level assistance would go through a Vietnamese diplomatic mission in another country, though the e-visa system itself is entirely online and doesn't require an embassy visit.
Do I pay the government fee again to speed things up?
No — the government fee already paid at original submission isn't charged a second time. Speed-up pricing covers the priority service itself.
Does speeding up guarantee approval?
No — no agency can guarantee approval, since Vietnamese immigration makes the final decision. It improves priority and speed, not the outcome.
