Question:
I plan to travel from Phnom Penh to HCMC either by bus or boat. This I will know when I have reached Pnohm Penh, Cambodia. Please let me know whether I can apply for a on-line Visa? Further, please inform me where I should enter the land-entry in the on-line Visa-Form. After I receive your reply I will submit the Visa application and remit the Visa-fee. Thank you.
Answer:
When applying for Vietnam Visa Online, Clients are to choose between two options: The first is “Visa On Arrival” and the second is “Visa Code”.
The first type, Visa On Arrival is applicable for air travelers only as Vietnam visa on arrival as Vietnam Visa On Arrival is only issued at Vietnam airports. For full understanding about this visa type, please refer toVietnam Visa On Arrival page.
The second type is applied for all travelers to Vietnam. In choosing this visa type, you are going to get an approved code issued by Vietnam Immigration Department allowing you to get visa at one of Vietnam Embassy (you must register one which is nearest and most convenient for you to pick up your visa) prior to your departing to Vietnam. To have details on the visa type, please access Applying For Vietnam Visa Code page.
Therefore, in your case, you are entering Vietnam by land, you can not apply for Vietnam visa on arrival as no on arrival visa is issued at Vietnamese land borders. Instead, you should apply for Vietnam Visa code, and go to Vietnam Embassy to stamp your visa.
