I am a U.S citizen currently living as a retiree in Bangkok. I have visited Vietnam 4 times in the last 5 years, all on 30 day visas visiting Ho Chi Minh City, Vung Tau, and Nha Trang. My questions are: how can I get a 3 month visit visa, as currently the only visa the Vietnamese embassy in Bangkok will issue to me is a 30 day visitor visa? Can a 30day visitor visa be extended in Vietnam for a 3 month stay and if so what is the cost?

Do you have Visa/Mastercard, access to a printer? there are plenty of online website for Visa on arrival, cheaper and faster than Embassy/Consulate, only about $30 for 90 days, .plus $45 tax at the airport, try http://www.myvietnamvisa.com/my

If you are an investor or partner in a business in VN, you can get a 5yr TRC. requiring a Work Permit Exemption, no Work Permit required, ( UNLESS you are a partner in a School and you want to teach in it ).

I have the answer to you that if you come Vietnam with visa exemption you can't extend your visa and after 30 days you need go out Vietnam. But if you came Vietnam as a tourism visa 3 months or 1 months you can extend it! So i think you need to chose 3 months tourism visa to stay longer in Vietnam. Wellcome Vietnam

You can apply Vietnam embassy to issue 3 moths tourism visa. If they issue to you 1 months tourism visa you can only extend 1 month

mogo51 If you want to travel in Vietnam you need tourism visa. So you can have 1 month visa with total is 50 usd. and 3 months single with total is 55-100 usd. I can help you have approval letter and can't extend your visa 15 days before it's expired

Checkout most online Visa's, 1 month only $20, 3 months $30, plus pay $45 tax at the airport, it appears we have a scammer on this site????
