The Covid 19 pandemic has greatly disrupted the travel and tourism industry around the world. When the deadly virus started spreading fast, countries have scrambled to close their own borders in order to protect its citizens. Vietnam, for instance, has decided to stop issuing visas to foreign visitors in an effort to prevent the virus from entering and spreading further in the country. In fact, Vietnam has recorded hundreds of confirmed cases during the height of the pandemic.
But now that the situation is getting better, Vietnam is once again opening its doors and is now accepting visa applications from foreign visitors. For citizens of Liechtenstein, you are required to get a visa before entering the country. You get to choose from the e-visa and visa on arrival, which is both easy to apply. But which of these visas is right for you? How are you going to apply for them? Read on to find out!
The first visa that Liechtenstein citizens are qualified to avail is known as the e-visa. This is the shortened term for an electronic visa. It’s called as such because this visa is issued electronically or over the Internet. Thus, it’s very convenient to apply. You don’t need to leave your home because all you need is a computer and mobile phone, plus an Internet connection. And when the visa is approved, it will be sent to your email. You will have to print the document and show it at the Vietnam Immigration to enter.
The Vietnam e-visa is a single entry visa that’s good for 30 days. You may be able to extend its validity but you’ll have to course it through a local agency. What’s great about this visa is that you can use it at several entry points, from land borders, seaports, and airports. Thus, it’s the best visa to use if you are entering Vietnam through land border crossings.
Another visa that is available for Liechtenstein citizens to apply is the visa on arrival. This is good for those who are planning to stay in Vietnam for longer than 30 days. When you apply for this visa, you’ll be asked to choose from single entry or multiple entries with a maximum stay of 60 days. This will be a sticker visa that will be attached to your passport.
But before you can get the visa on arrival at the Vietnam airport, you’ll have to register in advance. To register, you’ll be asked to fill out an application form online. After a few days of submitting the application form, you will get an email for the pre-approval letter. You will also be given a blank application form, which you need to print and fill out in advance.
When you arrive at the airport, look for the Visa Landing counter. Go to the counter and submit your passport, pre-approval letter, and application form. You will also be asked to submit a photo, so be ready with it. Also, there’s a $25 stamping fee that you need to pay at the counter. Since they only accept cash, you need to prepare a Vietnam Dong currency or US dollar.
Both the e-visa and visa on arrival are great options for citizens of Liechtenstein. But the type of visa that you will apply will mainly depend on how long you plan on staying in the country. Will your holiday be good only for 30 days or do you need to stay longer than that?
If your holiday in Vietnam is less than 30 days, you might as well use the e-visa. This is also a great choice for travelers who are entering Vietnam through its land borders. If you’re going on a cruise and will be entering the port, then this visa is also perfect for you.
But for Liechtenstein visitors who need a multiple-entry visa to the country, the visa on arrival is what you should go for. What’s more, this visa will let you apply for a 60-day visa. So if you’re going to stay in Vietnam for the long-term, then this is the best visa for you. However, this visa can only be claimed at Vietnam airports. So it’s not applicable if you’re entering the land border or seaports.
Vietnam is expecting a surge of visa application in the coming days since they just opened their borders after closing it for a month. So to avoid delays, it is best to apply for your visa as early as possible. In fact, the Vietnam Immigration Department advises foreign visitors to apply for their visa at least two weeks prior to their trip.
As part of its initiatives to control the rapid spread of the coronavirus, also known as Covid 19, Vietnam has suspended issuing new visas to all foreign nationals. Not only that, but Vietnam has also stopped the visa-free entry of those foreigners who are part of the visa waiver policy.
Vietnam is among those countries that have to close borders when the coronavirus started spreading fast. As a country that has a thriving tourism economy, closing its borders has been a truly difficult decision.
The Swedes are among the top foreign visitors of Vietnam and they have the privilege of entering the country visa-free. In 2019, there are more than 50,000 Swedish nationals who came to Vietnam for a holiday.
It’s clear that the Covid 19 pandemic has brought chaos in the world of travel and tourism. This, after airlines around the world, has canceled flights and several countries have to make the unfortunate decision of closing their doors to foreign visitors.
The Covid 19 pandemic has presented the tourism industry with a major challenge. In Vietnam, the country has to close its tourist sites and prevent the entry of all foreign visitors.
As a result of the Covid 19 pandemic, several countries around the world have imposed entry bans for all foreign visitors. Vietnam is one of them.
Because of the rapid spread of the coronavirus, also known as Covid 19, Vietnam has to make the unfortunate decision of preventing foreign visitors from entering the country. They have suspended the issuance of all kinds of visas and cancelled flights in and out of the country.
During the height of the coronavirus outbreak from 2020, Vietnam has decided to temporarily suspend the visa waiver program. Under the program, citizens of certain countries will be able to enter Vietnam for a certain period of time without the need to apply for a visa.
The Covid 19 pandemic has greatly interrupted the tourism and travel industries. In order to fight the rapid spread of this deadly virus, countries around the world have decided to close their respective borders.
