The Vietnam Ministry of Home Affairs has agreed to a proposal for a seven-day Tet (Lunar New Year) holiday in 2023 by the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs (MOLISA)Under the plan, officials, civil servants and workers of public ...
@Aidan in HCMC Hi, Aidan!No, I don't think it's specific to the countries which enjoy "14 days free visa".Here's what I'm saying:If you apply for a "Viet e-visa 30 days" while you're still in Vietnam, and are paying the fee online, you absolutely ... Read More

Visa extension and Exit stamp by goodolboy
So as of 1st July the new 1 month stamp requirement on tourist visa's came into effect (I think)......so what about visa extensions, I have a 3 months tourist visa extension runs out 8th Aug, but am I supposed to get an exit (or what ever its ...
So if those exemptions are solely for pushing people out and I can't guarantee my leave until January, my only option might be going with those agents. Well, at least I will try to get my complain to a higher instance. Maybe I'm lucky and ... Read More

You don't say if you are trying to leave the country. If you're trying to stay in the country none of those automatic extensions will help you. They're only good for you when you're exiting at the airport. That's what happens ... Read More

Has anybody experience with becoming eligible for the automatic extension "program" with an entrance date prior March 1.? I entered in February and have been extending through agents so far. It's probably pretty hard to get clients ... Read More
Where to buy fairly priced electronics? (monitors, harddrives, etc.) by flothus
I'm looking for a shop that has a variety of electronics at fair prices. All the shops that have been recommended to me only seem to have the latest tech at slightly overpriced rates. Are there any shops which sell things with reasonable ...
Yes yes, I absolutely should, unfortunately I have to keep using it at least until the next deadline is done. I already checked if it's possible to get a replacement device but it's just very complicated with those things in Da Nang. What ... Read More

I guess I should have taken that advice earlier. I have some slight stray current on the case of MacBook and the battery is slightly bulging. Could be some improper insulation on the board. But I was also wondering if it could have something to do ... Read More

Tiki.vn looks really good, will try that. The storm tomorrow might hit us quite hard in Da Nang. So I should get all I need while I can and hope it will be fine :lol: Will ask the grab drivers, maybe they will be able to show me the lesser ... Read More

Makes a lot of sense. I have a hard time imagining everybody is buying that shiny latest tech on a normal basis though :dumbom: A grab driver once bought me to a backyard shop for an HDMI cable. I guess it's a little bit like going to vinMart or ... Read More

Extend your visa now or Cry later by Johnny Le Manh Hung

If your consulate keeps sponsoring you, maybe waiting is an option. I have the feeling the overstay penalty might be handled not so strict in those edge-cases... in case you can back up your situation with some document, but you would probably need ... Read More

Correct... just once again somebody who doesn't have the benefit of longterm experience or his personally acquired visa agent. "Why does it even happen once again, everybody ought to know how it works. Hey, after all, it works for me!" ... Read More

The preCOVID-19 price for a tourist (DL) visa 3-month extension was $270-300 (depending on the agent). Most people don't realize this because they did 'visa runs'.Only that I paid that amount for a 2-month extension. The prices of visa ... Read More

Actually, I just wish for one thing.... clarity on the visa situation and not to rely on a private untransparent third party system for visa issues during a situation that is not under my control. Everything else is my choice and I have no problem ... Read More

@Ciambella thank you for your reply. Honestly, I don't understand what you are arguing for. Your niece might have been lucky (however, a chest-X ray is something you really don't want to do without serious indication, because of the ... Read More

Those connection flights are not certain and very expensive, too. I'd rather wait for my airline to resume flights and enjoy the safe situation here, to be honest. My Embassy also wanted me out as soon as possible, but there was no way I would ... Read More
Visa Extension Guide? by flothus
Is there a guide somewhere for extending my tourist visa by myself, without one of those pesky agencies? I already have paid more than 300USD for the first two-month extension during the Covid shutdown, but my airline is still not operating and it ...
Thanks for all your answers, there is a lot of contradicting information on the internet so I was not sure we still can do it by ourselves. I guess there is a good chance I still won't manage to do it though, as I only have time until the ... Read More

Hey Jlgarbutt, it's a 3-months tourist visa for multiple entries, which I received before coming to Vietnam. Entry date was before March, so I'm not part of the free extension until the end of June :( I have extended it for 2-months ... Read More

Is there any way to extend a tourist visa without an agency? My airline is still not operating, so I need to extend my Visa again. But I don't feel like paying 300USD a second time. Can I do it by myself? The immigration office in Da Nang, ... Read More
