I must say, your experience resonated deeply with me. While it's unfortunate that you had to endure such a stressful situation, I can't help but consider it relatively "lucky" compared to my own nightmarish experience. During my visit to Vietnam, I encountered ridiculously slow and unhelpful officials who took an astonishing six weeks to stamp my passport. I spent 20 hours in giant lines 1-4hours each for smth that is done digitally in most countries. I already started speaking some Vietnamese (after talking to other unfortunate ppl in those giant lines), whereas the official in question still couldn't speak a word of English and lost the copies of the papers I gave him. The delay cost me two flight tickets, and the situation escalated when they began screaming at me for taking photos. It was an experience that left me disheartened and frustrated. Your video sheds light on a problem that many travelers face, and it's no surprise that 95% of tourists never return to Vietnam for similar reasons. Despite the challenges, I admire your courage and positive outlook. Your family's adventurous spirit is truly inspiring, and I wish you all the best in your future travels. Keep exploring and sharing your incredible journey with the world!
My first trip to Saigon and vietnam. I took the taxi from the airport. Where you make the queue. I knew the price was around 200000 dong. I was watching the meter and just before arrive to my hotel i had a look outside. When i look again the meter the price was 500000 dongs. The taxi scammer shouting at me when i asked him why it was so expensive. I was so tired by my trip that i paid him but it didn’t hapened a second time as i used grab after that. Theses taxi scamers doing this since many years but the vietnamese government do nothing. What a shame! I live 20 years in thailand and it’s never hapened to me there. There is many scammers in vietnam so be aware. Thailand is so much better in every points. Vietnam👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻
scamming is not limited to taxi drivers in Vietnam. In my observation, it is something of a national sport, affecting both locals and foreigners alike. The reason gov't is not doing anything about it is b/c gov't is busy stealing, too. Just last month, 50+ gov't officials went to prison for bribes for repatriation flights, ripping off their own ppl during the COVID-19 pandemic. On the days the gov't is not busy stealing from their own ppl, they are busy putting 160+ human rights bloggers in prison for 5-6 years on vague bogus charges. Going after taxi drivers is way at the bottom of their priorities, trust me :) And, yes, I agree, Thailand is 10x better overall!
From my personal experience, the first time when I applied, it got processed in 24 hour and the next time it took 6 days. So it's always better to apply way earlier to be on a safer side. Other than that Vietnam is one of the easiest to get the visa from. Hope you have a great and happy journey next time.
There's some crooked officials that work in that Saigon airport, exact same thing happened to me, they didn't want to honor the e Visa, instead he made us pay $150 USD each visa on arrival, he demanded $15 for a "mandatory" passport pic (we were only there for one day hopover believe it or not). Then the official took a picture of my passport on his personal smartphone, didn't provide the mandatory passport photo, even though they charged us, and finally let us through.. 3 hours later. Scam.
True. My mom and I are from Vietnam. My first time back since I left in 1975 as a child. Upon coming back to Hawaii. A man asked for coffee money for her to pass inspection. She didn’t want trouble so gave $20. We barely had enough money to get a taxi back home. No money to eat or drink while waiting at Japan airline to transfer. Got some crooks that need to be investigated. Awful people!
Visas are backloaded rn! There's a large influx of people applying for them so, def try to apply weeks to months in advance. There's a 30 day visa and also a 5 year visa avaliable (:
Make sure to have your evisa name match your passport exactly. I made the mistake of abbreviating my middle name and they wouldn't let me through customs. I had to pay $180 for an emergency visa.
Our e-visa didn’t arrive in time even though we applied for it 4 days earlier. So in the end we had to just get a 14 day VOA and then pay $80 each later on to extend it.
@@FieldofVisions I see. You have to ensure you receive the evisa first before ordering your airplane tickets. I ran into a similar dilemma when I had to leave Vietnam for Thailand because my evisa was up. I made sure that I got my evisa first before I ordered my plane ticket back into Vietnam.
Were having the same issue! Applied for the e visa over 12 days ago 2 days before the Luna New Year on the 18th! One of them is still processing and the other no result found and the flight is in less then 48 hours we’ve tried to email but, no reply! We’re more then likely going to have to go to the embassy to extend too… I saw you said it was over double the price! Was it an easy process?
Oh nooo. Definitely try to email and keep emailing them. We had one guy on our flight that managed to get his email as he landed. So you never know. Fingers crossed for you. We did double price but it meant that we didn’t have to do the boarder run. Trying to do that with a baby was a no go lol it was simple and straight forward process. We handed in our passports and collected within a few days.
@@FieldofVisions I hope we’ll receive an email soon!🤞 We’ll most likely go to the embassy too! I don’t fancy another border run this soon if it can be helped! 🤣 Can’t imagine it would be the easiest with a little one! All the best guys! Thanks for the quick reply💙
One question wt if we had change of plan regarding entry n exit point which does not resonate wt e visa, is ther any way of changing it r we have to follow as per the evisa
This is odd… wouldn’t the airline check in staff at Singapore check and know if you had a valid visa for vietnam? They usually won’t board you if you don’t as it’s in their best interest to do so otherwise they have to fly you back
Check in stuff, especially for smaller and LLC are contractors, in short they do not give a shit about this. My local airport only started checking for visas before the flight in recent years
@@fuckthetorys Yes you can, UK passports granted 15 days of VISA free entry, which got updated to 45 days recently, but im not sure about the latter. You will be fine for less than 2 weeks though. (You must have a ticket to prove you will exit the country within the time preiod)
Does ANYONE know if we use the U.S. passport, we would get the automatic 15 days (like people using the British passport)??? I am asking ….just in case I have problems with the eVisa also….
This is some info I found online. U.S. citizens can apply online for a single entry E-visa on the Vietnam Immigration website. The E-visa is valid for a maximum of 30 days, single entry. An E-visa is usually processed within three working days after the Vietnam Immigration Department receives the completed application and E-visa fee.

Hi our flight is on Dec 20th from India to Hanoi via Vietjet airlines. We have a transit at Ho Chi Minh. Now we just want to know where would be the immigration will it be on Ho Chi Minh during transit or it will be on Hanoi. P.S: We have given the entry port as Hanoi Airport in our Visa.
Hi we are planning to book our tickets to Hanoi but all our flights go through Ho chi min city. Our visa port of entry is Hanoi can we transit through hochi min even though our port of entry is Hanoi ? Thanks a lot
Why are you all complaining,it takes around 5 regular days max to get the evisa ,make sure you upload clear head picture taken by a photographer and scan your passport and upload the scan ,dont take pictures of your passport with your phone it wont work these little things matter.Thats it ,dont apply few days before trip that's just asking for trouble 😂
Thanks for nice information! I have a one question in my mind that I have filled the Hanoi as a check in in city in visa of Vietnam..but now i decided to check in from Ho chi Minh city .. is it possible?
Good old British passport to the rescue haha gutted though because there was no way we could explore Vietnam especially with a baby in 2 weeks. We had to pay double just to extend for 2 weeks in the end.
I will be arriving in Hanoi from the UK next year in March, however I will be staying in the country for 13 days. Do you know if a visa is needed? And if so how would I get through immigration? Thanks in advance
hi I can't find anything online about this - I am going with someone who has a hyphonated last name - on the evisa application it won't accept the hyphon although that is how it is written on his passport. Does he just leave a gap inbetween the names?
When was headed to Vietnam. I was chatted with my nail tech who’s from there about things to do see etc. first thing he said was go somewhere else. He said it’s one of the most corrupted places to visit. So many crooked officials. Everything he warned us about happened. (Luckily we were prepared) So crazy. I had no idea Vietnam was that bad
come one , what you said is BS. I went to VN 8(eight) times and never had aaaanyyy problems. I always get evisa in advance and it was piece of cake, 25 USD and a Photo
Hi! I have applied for Vietnam e-visa and along with it I mentioned my 2 year old baby also. But after getting it granted my child's name is not mentioned. Do I need to apply visa separately for my child again? Or is it okay if I just travel with him without his name mentioned in my visa form?
Hello beautiful family , I have a question? If I fly to Vietnam with just my permanent resident card for JUST TWO WEEKS !!! What do I need to ENTER VIETNAM AND RETURN BACK HOME TO THE US ? Thanks you
Wait….I am confused from the comments below. Did you ended up staying in Vietnam for 15 days or did you get the eVisa RESOLVED and stay for 30 days? I get the impression that you stayed 15 days only….right?
We stayed for 30 days in total. As mentioned in the vlog we ended up having to pay again (double) to extend for 14 days only. When originally we paid for 30 days visa but it didn’t come in time. Hope that makes sense 🥰
@@FieldofVisions DANG!! SORRY that it happened. I used to traveled to Vietnam every year…and got a BLUE VISA BOOK that would last for 5 years. The last time I used that book was in 2018.

@@FieldofVisions did you get the extended stay at the airport or did you have to go down to immigration department? We fly to hanoi next thursday and are still waiting vor the evisa. Dont think we will get in on time due to lunar New year...
