United Kingdom is not in the list of Vietnam visa exemption; therefore, every United Kingdom is required a valid visa to enter Vietnam. From United Kingdom, you can get a visa to Vietnam by two following options:
Option 1: Get Vietnam Entry Visa at Vietnam Embassy in United Kingdom:
You can apply for Visa to Vietnam at Vietnam Embassy/Consulate in United Kingdom:
Embassy of Vietnam in London, United Kingdom
Address: 12-14 Victoria Rd., London W8-5rd, UK
Phone: (4420) 79371912
Fax: (44020) 7565385
Office hours: Office hour: Monday - Friday: Morning: 9.00a.m - 11.30a.m Afternoon: 13.00p.m - 17.00 p.m
Consulate General of Vietnam in London, United Kingdom
Address: 12-14 Victoria Rd., London W8-5rd, UK
Phone: (4420) 79371912
Fax: (44020) 7565385
However, it may take you 2-5 working days to get Vietnam Visa at Vietnam Embassy in United Kingdom.
Option 2: Get Vietnam Visa on Arrival:
Vietnam Visa on arrival – the visa picked up at arrival airport – is offered to all of those who are the United Kingdom passport holders. This kind of method is created to make the United Kingdom trip to Vietnam simpler and more economical. It is applicable for those travelling by air to Vietnam.
Visa on arrival is a special advantage for those who live far from the Vietnam Embassy/Consulate in United Kingdom. The applicants neither have to go to the Embassy nor have to send out the passport. By using this way of getting Vietnam Visa, a United Kingdom only needs at least 2 days for normal processing and 1 day for urgent processing (or only 4 working hours for super urgent service – see Super Urgent Service) to get a pre-approval letter issued by Vietnam Immigration Department which is an official permission of getting visa upon arrival.
How to get pre-approval letter and visa?
You go online at www.vietnamvisaprovider.com, fill in the secure form, make service payment, and just wait for 2 working days (normal service) or within 1 working day (urgent service) to get your Visa Approval Letter issued by Vietnam Immigration Department via email
Print the approval letter out together with a filled entry and exit form and 2 passport sized photos
Get your visa stamped at Vietnam airport checking point by submitting printed visa approval letter, passport, 2 passport-sized photos, entry and exit form, and stamping fee to the in-charge officer.
Tips:
Before applying for Vietnam visa, a United Kingdom has to make sure that his/her passport has minimum 6 month validity and left pages.
Visa on arrival option is ONLY applicable for United Kingdoms traveling by air to Vietnam.
