Informative articles about Vietnam visa and travelling
Vietnam Visa on Arrival (Vietnam VOA) is a visa option collected at a Vietnamese international airport after you obtain a Vietnam Visa Approval Letter in advance.
One important difference between Vietnam VOA and visa-on-arrival systems in some other countries is that you must obtain a valid Vietnam Visa Approval Letter before boarding your flight to Vietnam.
No approval letter, no boarding.
Vietnam Visa on Arrival may be available to Ugandan citizens in certain eligible circumstances.
However, travelers must obtain a Visa Approval Letter before departure. Without prior approval from the Vietnamese immigration authority, they cannot simply request a visa upon arrival at a Vietnamese airport.
For Ugandan travelers, Vietnam VOA can be an alternative option when an eVisa application involves repeated amendments or delays.
• Fewer amendment risks:
Professional assistance can help identify common errors before submission.
• Expert application review:
Your passport and travel information can be checked before the application is submitted.
• Suitable for urgent cases:
If your flight is coming soon and your E-Visa isn’t ready, Vietnam VOA is a more secure option to keep your travel plan.
• Dedicated support:
Get assistance throughout the application process, from approval letter preparation to visa collection.
• Greater peace of mind:
Professional support can help reduce mistakes, although visa approval is always subject to Vietnam Immigration’s decision.

1. A valid Ugandan passport (minimum 6 months' validity from travel date).
