🕒 Speed is Paramount: Choosing the Fastest “Urgent” Application Channel
The official channel for Vietnam E-visa generally takes 3-5 working days, which cannot meet the needs of urgent travel. Therefore, for Beijing travelers racing against time, we strongly recommend the following “urgent” approach:
First Choice: Professional Travel Agencies or Agency Services
This is currently the fastest and most certain method for handling urgent visas, especially suitable for travelers who cannot afford any delays.
⚡ Guaranteed Express Speed: Professional agencies usually offer different levels of expedited services such as 4-hour, 8-hour, 24-hour, etc., promising to complete the issuance in the shortest possible time.
💰 Cost Consideration: Although the total cost will be higher, you need to pay the official fee plus a high expedited service fee. This extra cost is to exchange for time certainty and professional service.
✨ Application Convenience: You only need to submit electronic documents; all subsequent complex online processes and communication with the immigration department are fully handled by the agency.
Small Reminder: When choosing an agency, be sure to verify their reputation and success rate with urgent applications to avoid delaying your trip.
📝 Document Checklist: Essential Electronic Data for E-visa
Whether you apply by yourself or through an agency, the following two electronic documents are essential for all Chinese passport (or Hong Kong SAR passport) holders applying for a Vietnam E-visa:

Brief Steps for E-visa Application (Applicable to Agency Process):
Online Form Filling: Please fill out the basic visa application form via the link (select E-Visa): https://www.yuenanyuenan.com/en/apply/
In very urgent cases, please contact directly.
Submit Documents: Upload the two electronic documents mentioned above as required.
Complete Payment: Pay the total fee, including the expedited service fee.
Email Follow-up: The agency may contact you via Email to check or request supplementary information.
Receive Approval Letter: You will receive the electronic visa approval letter within the agreed expedited time frame.
✈️ Entering Vietnam: Obtaining and Using the E-visa Approval Letter
After successfully applying for the E-visa through the urgent channel, you will receive an electronic visa approval letter (usually in PDF format).
🖨️ Must Print: Although it is an “electronic” visa, it is strongly recommended to print this approval letter in color and carry it with you.
Boarding Check: When checking in at Beijing airport, airline staff will check your E-visa approval letter.
Vietnam Entry: Upon arrival at your chosen international airport or land border in Vietnam, you should go directly to the Passport Check (Immigration) counter. Present your passport and the printed E-visa approval letter to enter directly. Chinese citizens must first exchange it for a visa-on-arrival sticker.
