Australian passport holders need a Vietnam e-visa before they travel. There is no visa exemption for Australian citizens, and no visa on arrival arrangement. This page covers every type of support VietnamVisaEasy provides for Australian travellers — from straightforward new applications to urgent same-day processing and error resolution.
Error identification is always free. If something has gone wrong with your application, contact the team before submitting anything new.

Ho Chi Minh City Pre-Arrival Declaration
Mandatory from 15 April 2026: All passengers arriving at Tan Son Nhat Airport (SGN) must complete an online pre-arrival declaration at prearrival.immigration.gov.vn before their flight. This is separate from the e-visa and is required regardless of nationality.
If you are arriving into Ho Chi Minh City, complete this declaration as part of your pre-departure checklist. VietnamVisaEasy can provide guidance on the form when you apply through the service.
