Canada is not in the list of Vietnam visa exemption; therefore, every Canadian is required a valid visa to enter Vietnam. From Canada, you can get a visa to Vietnam by two following options:

Option 1: Get Vietnam Entry Visa at Vietnam Embassy in Canada:

You can apply for Visa to Vietnam at Vietnam Embassy/Consulate in Canada:

Embassy of Vietnam in Ottawa, Canada
Address: 470 Wilbrod Street, Ottawa, Ontario, K1N 6M8, CANADA
Phone: (1613) 236 0772
Fax: (1613) 236 2704
Email: [email protected], [email protected],
Office hours: Office hours: Monday to Friday: Morning: 9.30 a.m - 11.30 a.m Afternoon: 13.30 p.m - 16.00 p.m

However, it may take you 2-5 working days to get Vietnam Visa at Vietnam Embassy in Canada.

Option 2: Get Vietnam Visa on Arrival:

Visa on arrival – the visa picked up at arrival airport – is offered to all of those who are the Canadian passport holders. This kind of method is created to make the Canadian trip to Vietnam simpler and more economical. It is applicable for those travelling by air to Vietnam.

Visa on arrival is a special advantage for those who live far from the Vietnam Embassy/Consulate in Canada. The applicants neither have to go to the Embassy nor have to send out the passport. By using this way of getting Vietnam Visa, a Canadian only needs at least 2 days for normal processing and 1 day for urgent processing (or only 4 working hours for super urgent service – see Super Urgent Service) to get a pre-approval letter issued by Vietnam Immigration Department which is an official permission of getting visa upon arrival.

How to get pre-approval letter and visa?

• You go online at https://visa-vietnam.ca/, fill in the secure form, make service payment, and just wait for 2 working days (normal service) or within 1 working day (urgent service) to get your Visa Approval Letter issued by Vietnam Immigration Department via email
• Print the approval letter out together with a filled entry and exit form and 2 passport sized photos
• Get your visa stamped at Vietnam airport checking point by submitting printed visa approval letter, passport, 2 passport-sized photos, entry and exit form, and stamping fee to the in-charge officer.

NOTES:

• Before applying for Vietnam visa, a Canadian has to make sure that his/her passport has minimum 6 month validity and left pages.
• Visa on arrival option is ONLY applicable for Canadians traveling by air to Vietnam.
