Visa and passport requirements for Australians flying to Hanoi 

Australians planning to fly from Hanoi to Da Nang, or travel anywhere in Vietnam, will need a visa before entering the country. 

Here’s how you can get your visa requirements sorted:

• e-Visa: Apply online through the official Vietnamese government portal. Processing usually takes 3–5 business days, so plan ahead. The e-Visa is valid for a single-entry stay of up to 30 days and is accepted at designated entry points, including Da Nang International Airport.
• Visa on Arrival (pre-approved letter required): Despite the name, you must obtain a pre-approved entry letter from an authorised visa agency before departure. Once you arrive in Da Nang, present the printed letter along with your passport, and get your passport stamped at the airport. Make sure to bring cash for the stamping fee. This also grants a single-entry, 30-day stay in Vietnam. Many use this option if they’re running out of time to wait for an e-Visa. A Visa on Arrival is usually processed relatively quickly — sometimes within the same day.

The e-Visa typically costs around AU$38, while a Visa on Arrival is AU$38 for the pre-approved letter, plus an additional AU$38 stamping fee at the airport.

It’s important to note that Vietnam’s visa rules are strict. Always apply through official channels, double-check your details, and ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months beyond your travel dates with two blank pages for entry stamps.
