Vietnam visa requirements for Bolivian citizens
As a Bolivian, you need a Vietnam visa before you enter Vietnam. However, since there is no Vietnam embassy/consulate in Bolivia, you can choose to visit the nearest Vietnam embassy from surrounding countries in person or visit our website online to find the visa application form there, which you will be required to download, print and fill it before submitting it again to the website.
Whichever way you choose to apply for the Vietnam visa, you will need the following documents for paper work:
• A pair of your most recent passport photo that you took within the last six months
• Your passport document which you acquired not less than six months in advance but should still be valid.
You will also be required to pay a visa stamping fee to have your Vietnam visa stamped on your passport.
By applying for your Vietnam visa from the Vietnam embassy in foreign country but as a Bolivian, you stand to experience the following:
• Long waiting queues at the Vietnam embassies which can keep you for as long as it takes to clear people before you, sometimes it can even take a whole day.
• You will have to visit the Vietnam embassy more than once during the five-day waiting period. The procedure is uncertain and can sometimes extend beyond the 5 day waiting period.
• There is a lot of paperwork involved as it is a manual procedure.
• You might find this procedure an inconvenience if you run businesses and reside far away from the Vietnam embassy. You will be required to travel and stay around the Vietnam embassy as you follow up on your Vietnam visa. All in all, the direct application procedure can be an inconvenience to some visa applicants which is why visa on arrival service is introduced.
