Direct Answer
A last-minute invitation with 48 hours' notice is a genuinely workable timeline — the 1-day tier ($110) comfortably fits, with faster options available if needed. What actually happens in that window: document submission, priority processing during Vietnamese working hours, and an approved PDF by email — not a dramatic race against the clock, just a matter of picking the right tier and sending accurate documents.

What "Emergency Visa" Actually Means
This isn't a separate visa category or a special government product — it's the same e-visa every traveler applies for, processed on a priority timeline for a fee. Whether your notice period is 48 hours, 24 hours, or less, the underlying document and government review are identical to a standard application; what changes is how quickly it moves through the queue.
Travel between Canada and Vietnam has grown steadily, and short-notice trips — a sudden business invitation, a family situation, a changed itinerary — are common enough that this is a routine request, not an unusual crisis.
What Actually Happens With 48 Hours' Notice
- Message support with your flight details and passport information
- Send a passport scan and digital photo
- Choose the 1-day tier ($110) — comfortably within a 48-hour window — or a faster tier if you'd rather have more margin
- Pay securely; processing begins immediately
- Receive your approved e-visa PDF by email, well ahead of your flight

The e-Visa vs. Contacting a Consulate
Vietnamese consulates in Toronto, Vancouver, or elsewhere in Canada handle traditional embassy-based visa services — a genuinely separate process from the e-visa system, which is fully online and run by Vietnam's Immigration Department. For most short-notice tourism or business trips, an urgent e-visa tier is the more direct route, without needing to involve a consulate at all.
Real Pricing
| Processing Time | Fee (government fee included) |
|---|---|
| 3 days | $90 |
| 1 day | $110 |
| 5 hours | $125 |
| 30–60 minutes (fastest) | $215 |

What No Agency Can Honestly Guarantee
No agency can guarantee approval or an exact processing time. Vietnamese immigration makes the final decision, and that timeline depends on their review, not any outside party. A genuine refund policy applies to a missed processing timeframe — not to the government's actual decision.
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
I have 48 hours before my flight and no Vietnam visa. Is that enough time?
Yes, generally — 48 hours is comfortably within reach of several urgent tiers, including options well under 24 hours, during Vietnamese working hours.
Can Canadians contact a Vietnamese consulate for expedited processing?
Vietnamese consulates handle traditional visa services, but the e-visa system is a separate, fully online process run by the Immigration Department — an urgent e-visa tier is generally the more direct route for this specific situation.
Does the airline actually verify the visa number directly with Vietnam's system?
Airlines check that you have a valid, approved visa at check-in — the exact verification method varies, but a genuine approved e-visa PDF is what you need to show.
Is approval guaranteed within 24 hours?
No — no agency can guarantee approval or an exact time, since Vietnamese immigration makes the final decision. A refund can apply to a missed processing timeframe, not the decision itself.
How much does emergency processing cost for this kind of timeline?
With 48 hours to spare, the 1-day tier ($110) comfortably fits, though faster tiers exist from $125 up to $215 if your timeline is tighter than expected.
