Vietnam visa requirements for citizens of Angola

1. Do Angolan nationals need a visa to Vietnam?

Angolan nationality is not included in the visa exemption list, but in the special nation list of Vietnam Immigration Department. Therefore, Angolans are required to submit documents before applying, and the process also takes much time than usual with a higher service fee. Angolans can apply visa for tourism purpose only.
- Vietnam visa for tourist purpose is required
- Vietnam visa for business purpose is not applicable

2. Two options for Angolan nationals to apply for Vietnam visa

2.1. Apply online for a Vietnam visa on arrival

Angolan passport holders can apply Vietnam Visa on Arrival for 1 month single entry online from anywhere outside of Vietnam. The Vietnam visa will be picked up upon arrival at the Vietnam airports by showing up the printed out of the approval letter. Please inform us your current occupation and send the following documents to visa@vietnamvisateam.com:

  • Hotel Booking for your whole trip in Vietnam
  • Passport scan
  • The flight tickets including the return ticket.

Note: The visa expiry date will be based on the return ticket (maximum 25 days)

In order to get a Vietnam visa on arrival, Angolans should pay two types of fee: the service fee and the stamping fee.
- Service fee: The service fee is for visa approval letter processing.
- Stamping fee: The stamping fee is paid in cash to the Vietnam Immigration Officer at the arrival airport to get the visa stamp. Credit cards are not accepted. If applicants have booked full package, this fee would not need paying anymore.

However, citizens of Angola would not be supported with Vietnam visa on arrival on some holidays and occasions. Therefore, they are advised to directly contact the Vietnam Embassy to obtain visa at those times.
