Can I apply for Vietnam e-visa if I am citizens of Democratic Republic of Congo?
No, citizens of Democratic Republic of Congo are not eligible for Vietnam e-visa
From 01 Feb 2019, under Decision 17/2019/NĐ-CP of the Government of Vietnam, there are 80 countries which citizens of it are eligible to apply online for Vietnam e-visa (an e-visa is a single entry valid for staying 30 days). We checked but not found Democratic Republic of Congo national in this list, therefore, citizens of Democratic Republic of Congo should choose two options below to get a visa for Vietnam
Options for citizens of Democratic Republic of Congo getting a visa for Vietnam:
- Visa On Arrival – Apply online for pre-approval then pick up your visa on arrival at the airport
- Apply for a visa at the embassy or consulate of Vietnam in the nearby countries of Democratic Republic of Congo (There is NO consulate or embassy of Vietnam in Democratic Republic of Congo)
Should I apply for a visa at the embassy of Vietnam in the nearby countries of Democratic Republic of Congo or apply online for pre-approval then pick up my visa on arrival at the airport of Vietnam ?

Of course making the visa application online from home or workplace is convenient for you. You can stay at home or office to fill the online application form then wait 2 working days to receive the visa approval letter via email, then print a copy of the visa approval letter to show for boarding and show on arrival (at the airport of Vietnam) to pick up your visa. Sound great !
However, visa on arrival Vietnam is now available at the International Airports of Vietnam only. You should go to the consulate or embassy of Vietnam to apply for a visa beforehand if you want to visit Vietnam via land crossing or by ship, by motorbike ….
