How To Extend my Vietnamese visa in Can Tho City

Set in the banks of the Hau River, Can Tho City is known for its network of canals and floating markets. The city is less than four hours’ drive away from Ho Chi Minh City. But unlike Ho Chi Minh which is very busy, you can enjoy a more laidback life in Can Tho City. Here, you can spend the whole afternoon at a cafe, pleasantly watching the sights of the city while indulging in a delicious cup of Vietnamese coffee. Because of this, many foreigners dream of living in Can Tho.

But one of the challenges to staying longer in Vietnam is the visa. As a foreigner in the country, your stay is only limited to the validity of your visa. If your visa is only valid for 30 days, then you should get it extended so you can stay and live longer in Can Tho City.

What is Visa Extension?

Visa extension is the process of extending the validity of your Vietnam visa. If your visa is only valid for 30 days, this can be extended to thirty more days. This option is also available to other types of visas, including those visas that are valid for 60 days. However, you can only request for the visa to be extended in the same validity period or less. Therefore, if your visa is good for 30 days, you can only request an extension of 30 days or less. Also, you’re only allowed to extend the visa a maximum of two times.

The visa extension can be applied at the Vietnam Immigration Office. In Can Tho, the office is located at Ninh Kieu district. It’s highly recommended that you call the office in advance so you can inquire about the process and the requirements needed to extend your Vietnamese visa. When your visa extension is approved, Vietnam Immigration will attach a stamp to your passport indicating the new validity of your visa.

Requirements to Apply for a Vietnamese Visa Extension in Can Tho City

The requirements to extend your Vietnamese visa in Can Tho City will vary. But normally, these are the requirements that you are required to submit before the Vietnam Immigration can start processing your visa extension:

👉 Passport – before you head to the Vietnam Immigration Office, make sure you bring your passport with you as this is the most important requirement for the visa extension. Make sure you double-check your passport’s expiry date. The Vietnam Immigration will only process your visa extension if your passport is still valid for at least six months from the date you applied for the extension.

👉 Application form – you will need to fill out an application form when you apply for a Vietnamese visa extension. This form is available to download online. However, if you cannot download the form, you can ask for this from the Vietnam Immigration Office. But it will save you a lot of time if you download the form and fill it out in advance. After you fill out the form, give it to the staff at the Immigration Office. Form NA5 for visa extension

👉 Visa copy – you will be asked to submit a copy of the visa that you are trying to extend. In most cases, the visa is attached to one of the pages of your passport. But if you are using a visa that’s in a separate piece of paper, then you need to submit that separately.

Depending on your status, additional documents may be required for your visa to be extended. This is why it’s a good idea to call the Vietnam Immigration Office in advance. If you are trying to extend your visa with the help of a local travel agency, the agency will advise you on what other requirements you need to submit.

How to Apply for a Visa Extension in Can Tho City

If you already have all the requirements needed for the Vietnamese visa extension, it’s time to start the application.

👉 1. First, check with the Immigration Office what other requirements are required other than your passport and visa copy. Make sure you have all these requirements with you when you go to the Vietnam Immigration Office in Can Tho City.

👉 2. On the day of your appointment, submit the requirements and fill out the application form if you have not done it yet. Give the form to the staff when you’re done. The staff will check the application form and the corresponding requirements. If everything is complete, they will collect your payment for the processing fees. Then they will ask you to wait for about a week while they process your Vietnamese visa extension.

👉 3. Once your visa extension is approved, go back to the Vietnam Immigration Office to collect your passport. On your passport, you will find a new stamp indicating the extended validity of your visa. Make sure you go out of the country before the visa expires.
