Which way to choose to apply for a Vietnam visa

We recommend that US citizens should choose to apply for a Vietnam visa on arrival because:

• Convenience: Vietnam visa on arrival can settle all of these issues. Its application requires you no travel to the embassy at all. You can apply for one right at home, in your office, or even on your way to home provided that you have an internet-connected device.
• Simplicity: you only need to visit at https://www.vietnam-visa.org.vn/apply-visa.html and fill out the online form. Pay for service fee online, and then get a visa approval letter via email within 1 or 2 working days. Get visa stamped onto passport upon arrival at Vietnam airport by showing the letter and paying for stamping fee in cash. So, it requires you no travel for visa application at all.
• Time-saving: As an application for a visa on arrival to Vietnam requires no travel at all, it absolutely saves you a lot of time to travel to the embassy, back home and then travel again.
• Cost saving: Total cost of Vietnam visa on arrival may be higher or lower than the cost of Vietnam embassy visa. But with no other fees (traveling cost, cost of days of working), Vietnam visa on arrival surely costs you less.
• Last-minute visa: Applying for Vietnam visa at Vietnam embassy or e-visa will take your time, normally 3 working days. So, in case your flight is just a few hours ahead, you cannot get the visa in those ways and of course, all your tickets will be canceled, resulting in a loss in a lot of money. But with visa on arrival, you can get the visa approval letter in even just 2 working hours, saving your trip in risk of being ruined.
