Albanians must have a Vietnam visa in order for them to legally enter Vietnam. As such, they need to apply for the Vietnam visa directly from the Vietnam embassy or online so they can be provided with this travel document. Below is a clear guide on how to acquire the Vietnam visa as an Albanian in each of these two ways:
1. Direct application procedure for the Vietnam visa:
Albania currently does not have a Vietnam embassy/consulate hence applicants to the Vietnam visa in this country have to find the nearest Vietnam embassy to apply from. This direct application procedure entails filling the visa application form at the Vietnam embassy, a process that requires them to travel from their current locations and present themselves in person at the Vietnam embassy/consulate. Firstly, visa applicants will have to contact the Vietnam embassy by phone, by email conversation or by presenting themselves in person in order to get instructions and a clear guide on how to undertake the entire visa application procedure.
Some Vietnam embassies allow visa applicants to use the visa by post service, which does not require them to physically present themselves in person at the Vietnam embassy and they will still get their visas to Vietnam. However, one must first confirm with the particular Vietnam embassy before opting for this plan, since visa application procedures vary across embassies.
2. Online application procedure for the Vietnam visa:
The online application procedure for the Vietnam visa is a lot more convenient and less time consuming. Here you only need to visit our website online and find the visa application form there. You will then have to accurately fill it in with valid information as you pay for the visa processing fees with us. Finally if your information is valid we will send you a letter of approval by email within 48 working hours, which you will have to present in hardcopy print at the Vietnam embassy/consulate you specified in the visa application form at our website in order to get issued the Vietnam visa. Alternatively, you can present yourself at any of the three Vietnam international airports: Tan Son Nhat (SGN), Noi Bai (HAN), Da Nang (DAD), Cam Ranh (CXR), Phu Quoc (PQC), ….., if you arrive there by air travel.
The two other documents that will be needed when collecting your visa to Vietnam are your two most recent passport photos and a valid passport document. These two documents plus your hardcopy print version of your letter of approval will be presented as you pay the slight visa stamping fee in order to collect your visa to Vietnam right there.
It is strongly advised that you save your time, money and energy simply by opting for the Vietnam visa on arrival, which is applicable by this second procedure. This way you only have to show up once in person, which is when collecting your Vietnam visa.
