Vietnam, the dynamic powerhouse of Southeast Asia, is rapidly becoming a top choice for regional and global business expansion due to its robust economic growth and massive market potential. For Chinese entrepreneurs based in the commercial hub of Mexico, seeking “Go Global” opportunities, Vietnam is undeniably the next frontier.
The good news is that Vietnam’s visa policy offers significant convenience for international business travel. Specifically, the Electronic Visa (E-visa) system, fully implemented since 2023, has greatly streamlined the entry process for all nationalities, including Chinese citizens.
This article provides a comprehensive guide for Chinese businessmen in Mexico on the conditions, required documents, and detailed steps for applying for the Vietnam Business E-visa in 2026.
For Chinese businessmen planning short-term commercial activities in Vietnam, the 90-day Multiple-Entry Business E-visa is the optimal choice.
💡 Important Note: The Business E-visa is strictly limited to commercial purposes. Any activities that constitute gainful employment in Vietnam (e.g., long-term assignments, receiving a salary) still require a corresponding work permit and long-term residency visa applied for through the Vietnamese employer.
As a Chinese citizen residing in Mexico, the main requirements for applying for a Vietnam Business E-visa are straightforward:
The document requirements for the Vietnam E-visa are extremely minimal, significantly speeding up the preparation time. You only need to prepare the following two key electronic files:
| Document Type | Specific Requirements | Notes |
| 1. Passport Data Page Scan/Photo | Must be clear, complete, and free from glare or obstruction. Must include all personal information, photo, and passport number. | Highly recommend using a high-resolution color scan or photo. |
| 2. Recent Passport Standard Photo | Standard size (typically 4×6 cm or compliant with standard passport photo ratio), frontal view, color, with a white background. | No need to submit a physical photo. Just one recent digital photo (.jpg or .png format) for upload. |
📌 Please Note: Unlike traditional visas, the E-visa generally does not require supporting documents such as a letter of invitation from a Vietnamese company, proof of accommodation, or flight bookings. This simplification is one of the E-visa’s biggest advantages.
