🇻🇳 Vietnam Visa from Dubai

Planning a trip to Vietnam from the UAE? Whether you are drawn to the emerald waters of Ha Long Bay, the buzzing streets of Ho Chi Minh City, or the historic charm of Hanoi, Vietnam is one of Asia’s most rewarding destinations. At Visa Doctor, we make the entire visa process simple and stress-free for residents in Dubai and across the UAE, handling everything from your Vietnam e-visa application to document checks and submission so you can focus on your journey.

What Is a Vietnam Visa?

A Vietnam visa is an official authorisation that allows you to enter and stay in Vietnam for tourism, business, or family visits. Most travellers from the UAE now use the convenient Vietnam e-visa, an electronic visa issued directly by the Vietnamese Immigration Department. It removes the need to visit an embassy in person and is linked electronically to your passport, making it the fastest and easiest option for UAE residents.

Vietnam E-Visa for UAE Residents

The Vietnam e-visa is available to UAE residents and citizens and can be applied for entirely online. It is valid for tourism and business travel and can be issued as a single-entry or multiple-entry visa for stays of up to 90 days. Because the e-visa is processed electronically, there is no need to hand over your original passport during the application. Once approved, you simply present your printed e-visa alongside your passport when you arrive in Vietnam. Visa Doctor manages the full online application on your behalf, ensuring every detail is accurate to avoid delays or rejections.

Vietnam Tourist Visa vs Business Visa

The Vietnam tourist visa is ideal for holidays, sightseeing, and visiting friends or family, while the Vietnam business visa suits professionals attending meetings, conferences, or exploring commercial opportunities. Both are available through the e-visa system for UAE residents. If you are unsure which category fits your trip, the Visa Doctor team will advise you on the most suitable option and handle the correct application for you.

Vietnam Visa Processing Time and Fees

The standard Vietnam e-visa is typically processed within 3 to 5 working days, while urgent applications can often be arranged in 1 to 2 working days for travellers on tighter schedules. Government e-visa fees start from around 25 USD for a single-entry visa, with higher fees for multiple-entry visas. A Visa Doctor service charge applies on top of the government fee and covers the complete handling of your application, document review, and dedicated support.
