The aim of Visa on Arrival is to make the trip to Vietnam simpler and more economical. It is applicable only to those traveling by air to Vietnam. Vietnam Visa on Arrival is especially an advantage to those living far from the Vietnam Embassy/Consulate in Czech Republic.

In order to get a Vietnam visa, Czechs should pay two types of fee: the service fee and the stamping fee.

- Service fee: The service fee is for visa approval letter processing.
