a. Entry visa procedures

You will submit it together with your visa application form, original passport, visa payment and other supporting documents. You will then be required to collect your visa at the Vietnamese Embassy or Vietnam Consulate General in your home country.
In case there is no Vietnamese government office in your country, it’s important to inform your institution as soon as possible so they can organise for your pre-visa approval letter to indicate the location on arrival in Vietnam where you can collect and pay for your student visa. Generally, you can have the visa stamp placed in your passport at international airports in Vietnam like Noi Bai Airport in Hanoi or Tan Son Nhat Airport in Ho Chi Minh City.
As of June 1, 2016, the fees you can expect to pay are below:
