"Emergency visa" means two very different things depending on whether you've already applied. Sending you down the wrong path wastes time and money — here's how to tell which one you actually need.
If you've never applied, you need a new urgent application — from $90 (3 days) up to $215 (30–60 minutes). If you already applied and it's stuck "processing," you need an expedite on that existing file instead — cheaper, since the government fee is already paid. Sending the wrong request just delays things further.
Two different situations, two different fixes
You need a new urgent application
- Full government fee applies, included in the tier price
- Requires passport scan and photo from scratch
- Choose speed based on how soon you fly
You need an expedite, not a new one
- Government fee already paid — only the service fee applies
- No document re-upload needed, just your application number
- Cheaper and avoids duplicate-file confusion
Correcting a common misunderstanding
Some guides describe emergency processing as running through a special or unofficial "direct connection" with immigration officials. This isn't accurate: emergency processing goes through the same official Vietnam Immigration review as any application — it's prioritized in the queue, not fast-tracked through a separate or informal channel. That distinction matters, because no legitimate provider can promise approval independent of your documents.
Pricing — new application
Pricing — expedite an existing application
Weekend/holiday delivery: $230 for a new application, or $210 to expedite an existing one — both fixed rates, since Vietnam's government offices don't process on weekends or public holidays.
What to send us, either way
- Never applied: passport scan, compliant photo, and your flight details
- Already applied: your application number and the email used at submission — nothing else needed
