How to choose a route

The right route is the one that works for your passport and your dates, not simply the nearest border. Before choosing, check three things:

  1. Can you enter the neighbouring country? Check whether your nationality is visa-exempt there, can get a visa on arrival or e-visa at that specific border checkpoint, or needs a visa in advance.
  2. Can you come back through the Vietnamese gate on that route? If you are returning on a Vietnam e-visa, the gate must be on the Government's list of ports that accept e-visas.
  3. Does the timing fit your permitted stay? Leave a margin before your stay ends in case of delays at the border or with your visa application.

If you're unsure, leave the route as "Not sure" on the inquiry form. We'll suggest one based on your nationality and dates.
