BritManToo Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Only 3 months available to non US citizens at the moment. https://vietnamvisa.govt.vn/vietnam-visa-on-arrival/ You can renew/extend in country. IMHO not worth the additional multi-entry fee, unless you're going in and out all the time, cheaper to just buy new VISAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickmondo Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 go there on a tourist exempt and ask around when you are there. i am also trying to find out all this stuff, and it is a nightmare. most info on the net is totally out of date. I am going there for a week 1st August to suss it all out. I understand that most long term ex pats in Vietnam get a work permit, one way or another if you get my meaning.

LRimmler Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Try www.expat.vn Granted I was wanting to stay for a year without having to exit and reënter but maybe they can do something similar with multiple entries. I asked them: What is the least painful way to stay in Vietnam (DaNang or HCMC) long stay, around 1 year? I'm looking for something like a retirement visa, long stay in one place and little travel needed to extend time. I'm American age 73 currently retired in Thailand.

Otherwise, you won't have to leave Vietnam. Our offer is for 1 year approval letter for visa on arrival, tourist, multiple entry type. At the airport/ Vietnamese embassy, you'll present this approval letter to get a stamp on your passport, and usually, the stamping fee is 135 USD. Please note our fee is not included for this stamping fee. Thanks, Duong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
