When the Covid 19 virus started spreading, countries around the world have scrambled to close their borders in an effort to prevent the entry of the deadly virus into their country and protect its citizens. Vietnam, on their part, has denied entry to all foreign nationals and temporarily stopped issuing tourist visas. These include the citizens of Estonia, one of the European countries that were also affected by the coronavirus pandemic.
Thankfully, the crisis is over now and everything is trying to go back to normal. Because of this, the Vietnam government has once again opened its doors to foreign visitors. They hope to welcome more visitors into the country this year and recover from the loss brought about by Covid 19.
For citizens of Estonia, you have two options for your Vietnam visa – the e-visa and visa on arrival. Both visas are now available for you to apply. Here’s what you need to know.
Yes, as a citizen of Estonia, you are required to have a valid visa before you can enter Vietnam. But applying for your Vietnam visa should now be easy. That’s because you’re among those nationalities that are eligible for the e-visa, also known as an electronic visa. This is a visa that you can easily apply online so it’s very convenient for everyone. When you’re approved of this visa, you’d be able to enter Vietnam and stay there for 30 days. You can use this visa to enter at the airports, seaports, and even at land entry points.
Aside from the e-visa, there’s another visa that Estonian citizens are qualified to avail, and that’s the Visa on Arrival. As the name says, this visa is something that you can get on arrival. But before you will be issued this visa, you need to apply for a pre-approval letter in advance. Also, this visa lets you choose between a single entry and multiple-entry. Plus, you have the option to stay in Vietnam for up to 60 days.
So how do you apply for the e-visa? It’s simple. Just go online and follow the steps below:

It won’t work if you’re entering through the port or by land borders.
