Once you reach the embassy, you will have to fill out the application form for the visa. This process can be completed by you or you can get it done with correspondence with the help of a friend of yours. Now, after the form, you will have to submit the important papers like your self-addressed proof, passport and a very recent passport sized photograph. The last step is to pay the visa fees and you will have to wait. The Embassy usually takes around 5 days to hand out the stamped visa to the applicant and you are certified to travel.
But the only drawback of this method is for the citizens of cities/towns that are not near Delhi like Guwahati. This town is located in Assam and travelling from Assam to Delhi will cost you a lot as there are travelling and lodging expenses involved. So, to save on money and time, you should have a look at the next option.
• Get the visa once you reach Vietnam from Guwahati city, Assam state, India
This process requires you to tie up with a travel agent who is based in Vietnam and you can rely on. He/she will give you the link of an online application form that you need to fill. You will have to submit the required documents on the online site and this travel agent will get a letter of approval from the embassy at Vietnam. The letter of approval can be collected by your travel agent on your behalf.
Once you land in Vietnam, you will be asked to go to the counter for visa collection. There you will have to produce this letter of approval and you will get your visa to stay in the country for the amount of days depending on the purpose of your stay. You will have to pay the visa fees at this same counter. Now, the passengers travelling through air only can apply for the visa through this method. The same method doesn’t go for travellers who are taking land routes.
