Vietnam Visa for South Korea

Korean citizens are generally exempt from a visa for short stays of up to 45 days in Vietnam for tourism or business purposes. However, if you plan to stay longer than 45 days, or if you require multiple entries, you will need to obtain a valid Vietnam visa in advance.

To help with this, Seniworld offers comprehensive visa support services tailored to Korean citizens, including guidance on visa types, eligibility, documentation, application procedures, and fees.

Requirements & Conditions for a Vietnam Visa

When applying for a Vietnam visa, your passport must meet the following requirements:

• At least two blank pages for visa stamps and entry/exit stamps.
• A passport-sized photo in color with a white background, size 4x6 cm, without glasses.
