    South African citizens wishing to enter Vietnam are required to apply for a valid Vietnamese visa for tourism or business purposes. The following requirements must be met:

    • Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the date of your arrival in Vietnam.
    • Your passport must contain at least 2 blank pages for visa stickers and immigration stamps.

    Option 1: Vietnam Visa on Arrival (Landing Visa)

    This type of visa is popular for its convenience, simplicity, low cost, and timesaving benefits. South African citizens with Vietnam visas can enter through any of the following international airports:

    • Noi Bai (Hanoi)
    • Tan Son Nhat (Ho Chi Minh City)
    • Da Nang
    • Cam Ranh (Nha Trang)
    • Cat Bi (Hai Phong)

    To obtain this visa, visitors must apply online for an Approval Letter, which they will present upon arrival at any of these international airports to receive their official visa stamp.

    Note: Visa on Arrival is not applicable for those entering Vietnam via sea or land borders.

    Option 2: Vietnam Visa via Embassy/Consulate

    South African passport holders can also apply for a Vietnam visa through the Embassy of Vietnam in South Africa or another country. For further information on visa procedures, fees, and required paperwork, it is advised to contact the relevant embassy directly.
