Yeah I know " 1 Day", I made an error of calculation, i booked my flight home before the visa bit, which means the visa expires at 12 mid night and the flight is (9;10 am the following day. Any suggestions as to where the least expensive agent is in Saigon ? viet visa on line will do for 1 month@ $60, any suggestions gratefully received , Mark

Have you checked with Chi at Chi's Cafe in district 1?

Also, it seems like there was a recent post on here about getting a short extension. If you search, you may find it.

You can also do it online if you trust the agent. I'll send you a private message with the contact info for my trusted agent and personal friend in Hanoi, who usually has very low prices. I think she can beat that.

Just thought I would add to the thread that my agent advised both of us that you pay the $25 over stay fee at the exit officer.

Just in case anyone has thoughts about the wisdom of doing that.

You don't need to extend your visa. You can pay the penalty fee at the airport, around 500.000 vn膽 for overstayed for 1 day. It will not be problem about the "black list" for overstayed for 1 day.

Yep, thats why you must always check your dates before booking.
