Vietnam visa for the Somalian citizens

Starting from August 15, 2023, citizens of all nationalities, including Somalis, are eligible to apply for a Vietnam e-visa. However, due to geopolitical reasons, Somalian citizens are subject to special conditions when applying for a visa to Vietnam. As a result, they may encounter additional challenges or delays in processing their applications.
Somalian citizens may receive multiple requests to amend their visa applications while they are being processed. Sometimes, even after all the issues have been corrected, the visa may still not be approved.
Somalian citizens are advised to book flight tickets and accommodation only after their Vietnam visa has been officially approved.
