As of mid-2026, Indian passport holders should confirm Vietnam's exact entry requirements directly on the official e-Visa portal before booking. Vietnam runs a national e-Visa system covering most foreign visitors, but eligibility, permitted stay, and fees are set by current government policy and can change. This guide points you to the official channel rather than quoting specifics that can go out of date.
Where to check the current rules
- Vietnam National E-Visa Portal, Immigration Department — the authoritative source for e-Visa eligibility, application, fees, and permitted stay duration.
Last checked for this guide on 1 July 2026. Rules, fees, and eligible-nationality terms can change — always confirm on the official portal closest to your travel date.
What to have ready before you check
- Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond your travel dates.
- A digital passport-style photo, typically required for the e-Visa application.
- Return or onward flight confirmation and proof of accommodation.
