Vietnam Visa Extension/ Renewal: Requirements + Visa fees

You are about to take a business trip or tourist trip to Vietnam, you obviously need a visa to conduct the business activities under Vietnam legislation. In Vietnam, a business visa is also known as a DN visa which is issued for those who work or cooperate with Vietnamese enterprises, and a tourist visa is also known as a DL visa which is issued for those who visit Vietnam for a short time.

During the pandemic, there is a lot of businessmen and traverlers who can not take a chance to back to their country, therefore, Vietnam visa extension or renewal should be considered to help them stay legally without leaving out.

What is visa extension and what is visa renewal?

Visa extension allows you to stay in Vietnam longer without leaving out. Once you apply this, there will be a new extension visa stamp showing your new date of exit.

Visa renewal also lets you stay in Vietnam longer. By this method, a new visa page and a new visa stamp will be sticked on your passport. The cost for renewal, as the result, is often higher than extension since the stamp fee and visa sticker fee are required.

Note: Vietnam Immigration Department will grant visa extension or renewal basing on your visa status, you cannot decide which one is preferred.
