Who the 1.5-Hour Option Is For
This tier sits between the fastest emergency option (30–60 minutes) and the slower same-day options (2.5 or 5 hours). It's a good fit if:
- Your flight is later today, and you have a bit more than an hour to work with
- You forgot to apply and just realized you need a visa
- Your existing application is stuck in "processing" and you need it resolved before boarding
New Application vs. Speeding Up an Existing One
If you haven't applied yet
You'll submit a new application with your passport photo, portrait photo, and travel details, choosing the 1.5-hour urgent package.
If you already applied on evisa.gov.vn
Submitting a second application creates confusion between two separate applications and typically slows things down rather than speeding them up. Instead, provide your existing application code (format: E260720USA…) and registered email to request a speed-up on the application you already have. See our guide on Vietnam visa stuck in processing? What to do for more detail on this path.
What to Send
For a new application:
- A clear photo of your passport bio page
- A portrait photo
- Your intended entry date
- Your email address
For an existing application:
- Your application code from evisa.gov.vn
- The email address you registered with
1.5-Hour Processing Fees
| Situation | Fee |
|---|---|
| New application (government fee included) | 185 USD |
| Speeding up an existing application (government fee already paid) | 160 USD |
Add 25 USD for a multiple-entry visa. If your trip timing doesn't fit 1.5 hours, see the full range of options — from 30 minutes to a few days — on our urgent Vietnam visa service page.
What Can Slow It Down
- Blurry or cropped photos and passport scans
- Incorrect passport number or entry date
- Submitting a duplicate application instead of speeding up the existing one
Even urgent processing can't outrun incorrect information — accuracy matters as much as speed. See our checklist: Vietnam e-visa requirements, the complete document checklist.
If the Timeframe Isn't Met
Urgent processing packages come with a 100% refund on the processing fee if the committed timeframe isn't met.
FAQ: Urgent Vietnam e-Visa in 1.5 Hours
Can I really get a Vietnam e-visa in 1.5 hours?
Yes, for qualifying cases where documents are accurate and complete. This is one of the urgent processing tiers designed for same-day travel.
Who should use the 1.5-hour option?
Travelers with a same-day flight who have a bit more buffer than an absolute last-minute emergency, but still need faster than the 5-hour or 1-day options.
What if I already applied on evisa.gov.vn?
Don't submit a new application. You can request the 1.5-hour speed-up on your existing application using your application code and registered email, which costs less than a brand-new application at the same speed.
What documents do I need for a new 1.5-hour application?
A clear photo of your passport bio page, a portrait photo, your intended entry date, and your email address.
Is 1.5-hour processing guaranteed?
Timing depends on document accuracy and current processing conditions. If the committed timeframe isn't met, urgent processing fees come with a 100% refund.
