Vietnam visa for the Lebanese citizens
Starting from August 15, 2023, citizens of all nationalities, including Lebanese citizens, are eligible to apply for a Vietnam e-visa. However, due to geopolitical factors, Lebanese citizens are subject to special conditions when applying for a Vietnamese e-visa. As a result, they may encounter additional challenges or delays in processing their applications.
Lebanese citizens may receive multiple requests to amend their e-visa applications while they are being processed. Sometimes, even after all the issues have been corrected, the e-visa may still not be approved.
Lebanese citizens are advised to book flight tickets and accommodation only after their Vietnam visa has been officially approved.
Lebanese nationals holding valid visas for developed countries will be given priority advantages when applying for a Vietnam visa on arrival.
If you have already booked your flight, hotels, and services in Vietnam but your e-visa is still stuck in “processing,” you may proceed with an alternative option by applying for a Vietnam visa on arrival with us. In this case, you will need to provide:
- The copy of your passport bio page;
- The copy of the passport pages containing the visas (or entry and exit stamps) of the developed countries;
- Your round-trip air tickets and hotel booking confirmation;
- Your residence permit card (if any)
Visa approval letter for Lebanese citizens
The visa approval letter issued by the Vietnam Immigration Department, authorizing you to board the plane and enter Vietnam, will be ready within 7-10 working days in standard processing or within 4 working days in rush processing.
How a Vietnam visa on arrival for Lebanese citizens works?
A visa on arrival is accompanied by a pre-approved letter issued by the Vietnam Immigration Department, and standard processing takes 7-10 working days. Upon the arrival airport, Lebanese travelers will present the original passport, a printed visa approval letter, and 25 USD stamping fee (for a single-entry visa) or 50 USD stamping fee (for a multiple-entry visa) in cash to receive a visa stamped on the passport.
