Up to now, Vietnam has been exempting the visa for the citizens of 34 countries under unilateral or bilateral agreements; however, Taiwan is not in the list. That’s why the Taiwanese citizens need to apply for a Vietnam visa as soon as possible.
How do Taiwanese citizens apply for a Vietnam visa and speed it up?
Step 1 – To apply for a visa for Vietnam, the applicants should prepare a scanned copy of the passport and a portrait photo taken at present. You just need to take the photos using your phone; there’s no need to use a professional camera. The optimal image size is under 3 MB per photo.
Step 2 – You upload the photos and complete the visa application form. After carefully reviewing the information, you submit it and pay the visa fee. Please note that the visa fee is non-refundable, so you must verify all information carefully before submitting; otherwise, you will need to apply for another visa and pay again if there are any errors.
Step 3 – After 3-5 working days, you will receive the visa via email. You print it and bring it with you on the trips. A hard copy of the visa is very helpful if you have issues with your passport or visa stamp.

What should you do after receiving the visa for Vietnam?
– Check the visa information carefully to ensure everything matches your passport details;
– Store a copy of the visa in your email; print it out and keep it carefully with your passport;

Frequently asked questions
- +Do I need to print out the issued e-visa?
Yes, the PDF version of the Vietnam e-visa is accepted, but it’s highly recommended to print it out, ideally in color on A4 paper, as airlines require it for boarding, and it makes things smoother with immigration, though showing it on your phone might work too.
