Considering Vietnam and China are neighbors, it is not surprising that so many Chinese visit their beautiful neighboring country. Chinese are actually the majority of the visitors in the country since there is a lot they have in common so they can feel at home in this country.
Being neighbors however does not mean you can just walk into Vietnam. A visa is required and there is a Vietnam visa cost for Chinese that you have to pay. If you want to receive the visa on arrival in Vietnam, this is only possible for visitors who will be entering the country through any of these three airports:
- Da Nang Airport in Da Nang city
- Tan Son Nhat Airport in Ho Chi Minh city (Saigon)
- Noi Bai Airport in Hanoi city
- Cat Bi Airport in Hai Phong city
- Can Tho Airport in Can Tho city
- Lien Khuong Airport in Da Lat city
- Cam Ranh Airport in Nha Trang city (Khanh Hoa province)
Application
The application process starts before you get into the country. You are required to apply for the visa online.
Go to the immigration website and access the visa application form which you have to complete, giving accurate information to all the questions asked.
When the application form is filled, you will pay a fee which you can also do online and then submit the form for consideration. You may wait between a few hours to 3 working days before you get communication on your application.
If your visa has been approved, you will receive an email with the approval letter. With the approval letter, you can begin your travel to Vietnam. Carry with you two passport photos and be ready to pay the Vietnam visa price for Chinese on arrival.

On arrival, you will show the visa approval letter to the immigration official and hand over your passport with the photos. You will then make payment according to the visa you were granted and the passport will be stamped with a visa.
