Vietnam Visa for Americans: Everything You Need to Know in 2025
Can US Citizens Travel to Vietnam Visa-Free?
No. As of 2025, US citizens are not eligible for visa-free entry into Vietnam. Unlike citizens of ASEAN nations, Japan, South Korea, and several European countries who enjoy visa exemptions of varying lengths, Americans must obtain a visa prior to or upon arrival in Vietnam.
The Vietnam e-visa is by far the most convenient option for US travelers. It eliminates the need to visit a Vietnamese consulate, mail in your passport, or arrange a visa-on-arrival letter — the entire process is completed online, and your approved visa arrives by email.
How Long Can Americans Stay in Vietnam?
The Vietnam e-visa issued to US citizens allows a stay of up to 90 days per entry. This covers the vast majority of tourist, business, and extended travel needs. If you plan to stay longer than 90 days, a visa extension or a border run may be required — our support team can advise you on options.
Where Is the Vietnam E-Visa Accepted for US Citizens?
Your Vietnam e-visa is accepted at all official entry points into Vietnam, including:
- Noi Bai International Airport (Hanoi)
- Tan Son Nhat International Airport (Ho Chi Minh City / Saigon)
- Da Nang International Airport
- Cam Ranh International Airport (Nha Trang)
- Phu Quoc International Airport
- All major land border crossings with Cambodia, Laos, and China
- Major sea ports and cruise terminals
