Ethiopia needs to obtain a valid visa for entry into Vietnam. There are, although, some other exemptions extended to the citizens of Ethiopia. If an Ethiopian citizen has a spouse or parent who is Vietnamese citizen then they can apply for a visa exemption. In addition, diplomatic and official passport holders are also eligible for a visa exemption. There is, although a certain paper work that needs to be completed to benefit from these exemptions.
Ethiopian citizens can apply for a visa through the embassy or through agents like us for a VOA.
Apply via embassy:
1) Ethiopia does not have a Vietnamese embassy to deal with such travel related issues. Hence, for applying for a visa, the citizens can apply at the Vietnamese embassies located in the neighboring nations.
2) Ethiopians can find Vietnamese embassies in Iran, Egypt, Libya, Tanzania, Nigeria, and Mozambique to name a few.
3) These embassies, being in different nations, will have their specific working hours and holidays. In addition, you will have to apply for a visa through them via mail. So, while picking up a desired embassy consider the time frame that you have in hand. Visit their official’s site and enquire about the online applications and postal submissions.
4) Most of the embassies have a similar process that includes filling up of the online form, submitting this duly filled form along with documents to the embassy and making the payment for the service. Most of the embassies give you the benefit of online application that can save your time.
5) If you have to submit, the document via mail then chose a good one that allows you track the delivery status.
6) Once accepted, the visa will be processed in 5 working days.
7) You may submit a pre paid envelope to the embassy so that your visa can be mailed to you once it is ready.
Ethiopians can also make use of the VOA to gain an entry into Vietnam. The VOA is useful and recommended if you are taking a flight to Vietnam. We can help you in getting your VOAs in the least possible time and at the most reasonable rates. It also saves you from the tedious process of applying to the neighboring embassies. A VOA is the ultimate solution provided you flying to Vietnam. For other routes, you need to get in touch with an embassy.
