We get many inquiries about visa services. Be advised that the Honorary Consul does not have any official authorities. Those seeking a tourist Visa should apply online at this website.

There have been reports of difficulties applying for a visa through the official site. An alternative is to use a commerical visa provider. You can find one by searching "Tourist visa to Vietnam" on your device. These providers charge an additional fee, but may be able to provide reliable and expedited service.
