Step-by-Step Application

How to Apply for an Emergency Vietnam eVisa as an Australian

The application takes most Australians under 8 minutes if your passport and photo are ready. Here is exactly what to do:

1

Open ApplyEvisaVietnam.com now

Navigate to the application form immediately. If you are at the airport, turn mobile data on — do not wait for airport Wi-Fi. Select your processing speed based on your departure time.

Time: 1 minute
2

Have your Australian passport open in front of you

You will need your full name exactly as printed on your passport, passport number, date of birth, expiry date, and nationality. Type directly from your passport — do not type from memory to avoid errors.

Time: 2 minutes
3

Take a passport-style photo right now if needed

Stand against a plain white or cream wall. Face directly forward. No sunglasses, no hats. Take 3–4 clear shots and use the sharpest one. A plain-background selfie is acceptable for emergency applications.

Time: 2 minutes
4

Complete the form, choose entry type, and pay

Enter your Vietnam arrival and departure dates, accommodation address, and email. Choose single-entry or multiple-entry (+$25). Pay securely by credit or debit card. Government fee is fully included in your package price.

Time: 3 minutes
5

Receive your approved eVisa and board

Your approved Vietnam eVisa PDF arrives in your email inbox within your chosen processing window. Screenshot it to your camera roll immediately, forward it to yourself as backup, and show it at check-in and Vietnamese immigration on arrival.

Processing: 30 minutes to 1 business day

What You Need Ready

Emergency Application Checklist for Australians

Have these ready before you start the form to complete your application in under 8 minutes.

+
Australian passport — must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned Vietnam exit date, not arrival date. Check the expiry page now.
+
Passport-style digital photo — plain background, frontal face, no glasses. A clear selfie against a white wall works for emergency applications.
+
Vietnam arrival and departure dates — match exactly to your flight itinerary. If your flight arrives after midnight Vietnam time, your entry date is the following calendar day.
+
Accommodation address in Vietnam — hotel name or destination address. Your Airbnb address, a contact's address, or any hotel in your destination city is fine.
+
Email address accessible on your phone — your approved visa arrives here as a PDF. Use an address you can open in your email app right now.
+
Credit or debit card for payment in USD — Visa, Mastercard accepted. Government fee fully included in the package price.
!
Choose multiple-entry (+$25) now if there is any chance you will visit Cambodia, Bali, or Thailand during your Vietnam trip. You cannot upgrade after the visa is issued.
Passport expiry check for Australians: Your Australian passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond the date you leave Vietnam — not the date you arrive. Airlines including Vietnam Airlines and Jetstar check this at Australian check-in. If your passport is expiring within 6 months of your Vietnam exit date, renew it at Australia Post before applying.

"At Tullamarine, Jetstar check-in, realized I had no Vietnam visa. Applied on my phone for the 1.5-hour option, had the approved PDF before the gate closed. Check-in staff were happy to wait while I showed them the payment confirmation. Saved my holiday."

"Booked a Vietnam Airlines flight from Sydney at 8am, realised at 9am I had no visa, applied for the 5-hour option. Visa arrived at 11:40am. Checked in at noon without any issues. The fact this all works while you are standing at the airport is genuinely remarkable."

Frequently Asked Questions

Emergency Vietnam eVisa for Australians — FAQ

What is the fastest Vietnam eVisa option for Australians?+
The fastest option is the 30–60 minute Flash Rush at $215 USD, single-entry with government fee included. Apply at ApplyEvisaVietnam.com, complete the form in under 8 minutes, pay securely, and receive your approved Vietnam eVisa PDF by email within the hour. Other emergency speeds: 1.5 hours ($185), 2.5 hours ($155), 5 hours ($125).
Does my Australian passport need 6 months validity for an emergency Vietnam eVisa?+
Yes. Your Australian passport must be valid for at least 6 months beyond your planned departure date from Vietnam — not your arrival date. Vietnam Airlines, Jetstar, and other carriers check this at Australian check-in. If your passport expires within 6 months of your Vietnam exit date, renew it at Australia Post before applying for your eVisa.
Can I get a Vietnam eVisa at Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, or Perth airports?+
There is no walk-in visa counter at Australian airports. However, you can apply on your phone at the airport through ApplyEvisaVietnam.com and receive your approved visa before your flight departs, using the 1.5-hour or Flash Rush options. Apply immediately — every minute matters for emergency processing.
Is the government fee included in the emergency eVisa price?+
Yes. All ApplyEvisaVietnam.com packages include the Vietnamese government stamp fee. The price you pay online is the total price — $125, $155, $185, or $215 USD depending on your speed. No additional fees on arrival in Vietnam, no cash required at immigration.
Should I choose single-entry or multiple-entry for my Australia to Vietnam trip?+
Choose single-entry ($0 add-on) if you are going directly to Vietnam and staying the entire trip. Choose multiple-entry (+$25) if there is any chance you will leave Vietnam to visit Cambodia, Bali, or Thailand during your stay. A single-entry visa is voided the moment you exit Vietnam, and you cannot upgrade after the visa is issued.
Can I show my Vietnam eVisa on my phone at Australian check-in?+
Yes. The approved Vietnam eVisa PDF shown on your phone screen is accepted at all Australian airport check-in counters including Vietnam Airlines, Jetstar, Qantas, Singapore Airlines, and all other carriers operating Australia–Vietnam routes. We also recommend taking a screenshot to your camera roll as backup.
