Vietnam eVisa Entry Points: Airports, Land Borders and Seaports

When you apply, the form asks where you will enter Vietnam. These Vietnam eVisa entry points include all the main airports and many land and sea borders. This guide lists the most used ones and explains what to do if your plans change.

Which airports are Vietnam eVisa entry points?

All main international airports.

The full official list is published on the Vietnam e-visa portal.

Which land borders accept the eVisa?

Many of the busiest crossings. Popular ones include:

• From Cambodia: Moc Bai (from Phnom Penh), Tinh Bien, and others along the southern border.
• From Laos: Lao Bao, Cau Treo and Bo Y.
• From China: Lao Cai, Huu Nghi and Mong Cai.

Border lists can change. Always check the official list before travelling overland, and choose the exact gate when you apply.

Can I enter by sea?

Yes, at several international seaports. Cruise passengers usually enter through ports near Ha Long, Da Nang, Nha Trang and Ho Chi Minh City. Cruise lines often handle arrangements, so ask them first.

Why does the entry point matter?

Your visa lists the place you said you would enter. Immigration officers and airlines may check it. Entering elsewhere can cause questions or delays.

Does the exit point have to match?

No. You can leave Vietnam through any international border gate, airport or seaport.

What about Phu Quoc?

Phu Quoc has a special rule. Foreigners flying directly to Phu Quoc can stay on the island visa-free. If you connect through Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi, or will visit the mainland, you need an e-visa, and the entry point is where you first land in Vietnam.

How do I choose the entry point in the form?

Pick the place on your ticket.

1. Open the application form.
2. In Entry port, choose the airport or border from the list.
3. If yours is not listed, choose Other port and write it in the notes.

Our team checks that the entry point matches your plans before submitting.

What if I already applied with the wrong entry point?

Ask for a correction before you travel. A correction costs US$85. If your flight is very soon, a new visa may be faster. See application error messages.

Common mistakes with entry points

These cause the most questions at the border.

• Choosing the connection airport, such as Bangkok or Singapore, instead of the Vietnamese airport.
• Choosing Hanoi when the flight lands in Ho Chi Minh City.
• Planning a land crossing at a gate that does not accept e-visas.

How fast can I get a visa for an overland trip?

The same speeds apply to land borders. If you are already travelling in Cambodia or Laos and decide to cross into Vietnam, choose a speed that fits your bus or train.

Prices include the US$25 government fee. Multiple entry adds US$25.

Do I need anything else at a land border?

Your passport, the printed visa and patience. Land borders can be busy in the morning and close in the evening. Arrive during daytime hours and keep small change for local transport on the Vietnamese side. Your passport must be valid at least 6 months after entry, and the visa allows a stay of up to 90 days.

Can I enter at one point and come back at another?

Yes, with a multiple-entry visa. Each time you enter, use a gate on the official list. A single-entry visa ends when you leave Vietnam, so choose multiple entry if your route goes Vietnam, Cambodia, then Vietnam again.
