Türkiye to Vietnam visa requirements

Turkish ordinary passport holders need a visa for Vietnam. The simplest route is the official Vietnam e-visa: apply online at evisa.gov.vn, valid up to 90 days, single or multiple entry. Türkiye (TR) is not on Vietnam's visa-exemption lists, including the 45-day unilateral and tourism-promotion exemptions updated in 2025, so ordinary Turkish passport holders require a visa for tourism. The practical route is Vietnam's official e-visa, available to citizens of all countries and territories since 15 August 2023. Apply through the official evisa.gov.vn portal, upload the passport data page and portrait photo, choose single or multiple entry, and pay the non-refundable government fee by card. The e-visa is valid for up to 90 days, costs USD 25 for single entry or USD 50 for multiple entry, and the Vietnam Immigration Department instruction page lists 3 working days of processing after fee payment. Travelers should hold a valid passport, carry a printed e-visa, and enter and exit through ports approved for e-visa use. Embassy or consulate visa routes remain possible for cases not covered by the e-visa.
