OMG I didn’t know we had to apply for an e-visa to go to Vietnam. I thought it would be the same as Bali where you just get a visa on arrival, but it turns out you need the visa before boarding the flight.My flight from Sydney is on Friday 13/03 and I only applied yesterday for four separate visas. I got a bit nervous thinking what if they don’t approve them before the 13th.PS: Of course I googled this when I first started planning the trip, but somehow my brain interpreted it as visa on arrival, so I believed that was the case.Also PS: For people who commented useless judging comments on this post — please bite your tongue and mind your own business if you don’t have anything helpful to say. The world is getting tired of people who just sit and judge.And thank you to the people who gave useful suggestions. I contacted an agency and everything is sorted out now.

    Pay for the 24hr “expedited service” and hope they spelled your name right on the visa letter of entry.

    my visa took exactly 36h to process last week, so it is fairly risky for you to not expedite it

    Ours took 5 days but you can get it quicker using an agent. Plenty of recommendations on here

    That’s Travel 101.. the upside is you’ll know from now on that every country has different visa requirements and you need to check well in advance what you need to do to apply. ✈️✈️
