With Vietnam opening e-visa applications to Indian citizens, more and more Indian travelers are opting for this convenient method of entry. However, many still encounter various questions during the application process, especially concerning handling the “In Processing” status, responding to document requests, and expediting visa issuance. This article provides a detailed and accurate guide to help you successfully obtain your Vietnam e-visa.

🧐 Part 1: Common Questions for Indian Applicants of Vietnam E-Visas

During the Vietnam e-visa application, common errors and questions often arise due to data entry or document format issues:

1. Passport Requirements & Validity
   ⚠️ Key Requirement: The applicant’s passport must have at least 3 months of validity remaining after the planned departure date from Vietnam. If it does not, be sure to renew your passport before applying.
   Photo Upload: You need to upload a photo of the passport data page (clear, no glare) and a personal portrait photo (recent, front-facing, white background).
2. Data Entry Errors
   Personal Information: Carefully double-check details like your full name (must exactly match passport), date of birth, nationality, and passport number. Any typo could render the visa invalid or trigger a document request.
   Entry Port: Fill in the name of the intended international airport or land/sea port of entry. Ensure the selected port is on Vietnam’s list of allowed e-visa entry points.
3. Prolonged “In Processing” Status
   Normal Duration: The official stated processing time is usually 3-5 working days. However, delays extending to 7 working days or more are common due to high application volume or system load.
   Reason Analysis: If the status remains unchanged for a long time, it often indicates there might be an issue with your application that hasn’t yet triggered an official document request notification.

🛠️ Part 2: How to Handle Official Document Request Notifications

If your application documents are incomplete or incorrect, the Vietnam Immigration Department may send an email notification requesting additional documents or corrections.

1. Receiving and Identifying Document Request Notifications
   Check Your Email: Regularly check the email address you provided during the application, including the Spam/Junk folder, as official notifications might be misdirected.
   Notification Content: The email will usually specify the exact information that needs correction or the documents that need supplementing.
2. Correct Steps for Submitting Requested Documents
   Log In to the System: Follow the instructions in the official email. Use your Registration Code, email address, and date of birth to log back into the query page of the e-visa application website.
   Upload/Correct: Locate the fields requiring action and upload new, clear, correct documents or modify the erroneous information as instructed.
   Submit Confirmation: After providing the requested documents/information, confirm submission again and wait for the system to update the application status.

💡 Reminder: The processing time typically resets after submitting requested documents, so please wait patiently.

🚀 Part 3: Expediting Tips and Emergency Solutions

If your travel date is approaching and your visa status is still “In Processing,” you can consider the following methods to expedite your visa:

Seek Assistance from a Visa Agency/Travel Company (Paid Expediting Service)

• Expedited Service: This is currently recognized as the most effective and fastest way to expedite an e-visa. Many professional visa agencies or travel companies offer “Urgent Express Services”.
• How it Works: You need to provide the agency with your application details (Application Reference Number, registered email, and date of birth) and your desired receipt time for the visa (fastest options can deliver within 1 business hour).

💡 When to Use: Suitable for travelers who haven’t received their visa within the week before departure or urgently need it within a very short timeframe. This involves paying an additional expedited service fee.
