There are two ways

2.1 Apply online for a Vietnam Visa

This way is also called Vietnam visa on arrival (VOA). It takes you some minutes to fill in the application form on the website www.entryvietnamvisa.com with full detail of your information, ex: your passport number, name, arrival day, payment form. Then you will be received a Visa stamp on arrival at the airport in Vietnam.

Convenient, cheap, quick and safe is the four feature of this way. In addition, you also save the time because need not send your passport to anywhere, or wait a long time to get feedback from Embassy or Consulate, need only have your mail address. This way help you reduce the minimum for losing your documents.

Besides, the service fee is fixed on the website, no hidden charged and extra fees, no fail. After 1-2 working hours, you will get the confirmation to know your Visa status. And after 24-48 hours, you will get the permission which allows you to get Visa stamp at the airport when you arrived. In emergency, you can process Visa approval letter for applying Visa from the Vietnam Immigration Department from 30 minutes to 4 hours, it depends on how urgent you need. And there is also a traditional way to get Vietnam Visa, you can see it in the next instruction.

2.2 Apply at the Vietnamese Embassy/ Consulate

It is difficult to do it. First, you send your passport or required document to Vietnam Embassy or Vietnam Consulate in your country. Second, you wait the announcement from the Embassy. But it is a rather complicated way, sometimes you feel very unsatisfied with the problem of losing your issues (passport or money), both wasting time and cost of going to the Embassy.

Furthermore, Vietnam Embassy or Consulate has not established in Bahrain yet. So, you have to contact with The Vietnam Embassy in Kuwait-the nearest country, for the Visa application. This way is inconvenient, complete, not easy to implement. Therefore, we totally suggest you should apply the Visa through Vietnam Visa on arrival as the best choice.
