How to get Vietnam visa in Cincinnati,United States

General information

Vietnam visa for US citizens is valid for up to 1 year starting from the entry date indicated in the application form. The applicants are permitted to enter/exit Vietnam whenever they want during period of visa validity. However, for 6 months and 1 year tourist visa, each entry cannot exceed 90 days. If you are planning to remain in Vietnam for more than 3 months, we advise you to consider applying for long-stay business visa as substitute. The Vietnamese immigration officers never ask proof of travel so even the tourists can get a business visa.
