Overview
Vietnam, one of Southeast Asia’s fastest-growing economies, is a key trade and investment destination for Indian businesses. Whether visiting for client meetings, factory inspections, or partnership discussions, Indian professionals must hold a valid Vietnam Business Visa before entry.
Vietnam offers two convenient options for Indian travelers — the Vietnam eVisa (online) and the Embassy-processed business visa for longer or multiple-entry stays. The eVisa process is quick, efficient, and suitable for most short business visits.

Vietnam Visa: Application & Processing Tips
Visa Requirement
Indian citizens need a Vietnam Business Visa; apply via eVisa (short visit) or the Embassy (long/multi-entry).
It’s best to apply at least 10 days before travel, as embassy applications involve verifying business documents and invitation letters.
The eVisa processing time is generally 3–5 working days, while the Embassy Visa requires 5–7 working days, subject to final approval.
Apply online on the portal, pay the fee, receive the eVisa by email, and track status using the code.
