Do Türkiye passport holders need a visa to visit Vietnam?

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 list, so ordinary Turkish passport holders require a visa for tourism. As of 2026, Vietnam's e-visa is open to citizens of all countries and territories, including Turkey, making it the recommended pathway for a short tourist stay. The e-visa is applied for entirely online via the official government portal (evisa.gov.vn), with an official government fee of USD 25 for single entry or USD 50 for multiple entry, and grants a stay of up to 90 days. Standard processing is about 3-5 working days. Travelers must hold a passport valid for at least 6 months with at least 2 blank pages, and must enter through one of Vietnam's designated e-visa ports of entry. A visa on arrival (requiring a pre-arranged approval letter through a travel agency) and an embassy/consulate visa sticker are alternative routes, but the e-visa is cheaper and more convenient. Note a separate 30-day visa exemption exists specifically for travelers visiting Phu Quoc Island directly by international flight.

Türkiye to Vietnam route verified
Confirmed via the official Vietnam e-visa portal and immigration guidance that Turkish ordinary passport holders require a visa and are eligible for the 90-day e-visa (USD 25 single / USD 50 multiple, 3-5 working day processing). Vietnam's e-visa now covers citizens of all countries.
/09 — The questions

Frequently asked

Can Turkish citizens enter Vietnam without a visa?
No. Türkiye is not on Vietnam's visa-exemption list, so an ordinary Turkish passport holder needs a visa. The e-visa is the easiest option. The only exception is Phu Quoc Island, which has a 30-day visa exemption for direct international arrivals.
