Documents & your visa.
Carry ID, enter on the right visa, and never overstay — the fines add up fast.
The rule, in plain English
You should be able to show your passport (or a clear copy) at any time. Apply for an e-visa only through the official portal evisa.gov.vn — third-party sites overcharge or scam. Your hotel registers your temporary residence with the local police as required by the Law on Residence, and overstaying your visa carries escalating fines.
What's banned vs allowed
Carry your passport or a clear copy at all times.
Apply for e-visas only via the official portal evisa.gov.vn.
Hotels handle temporary-residence registration for you — keep a check-in record.
Overstaying your visa — even by a day — means fines at departure.
Working or doing the wrong activity on a tourist visa breaches your status.
How to stay legal
- 1Leave your real passport in the hotel safe and carry a photo or copy day-to-day.
- 2Buy your e-visa only at evisa.gov.vn and save the PDF approval.
- 3Check your exact visa expiry date and plan to leave before it.
- 4If you change accommodation (e.g. a homestay), confirm they've registered you.
- 5If you must extend, start the process well before your visa expires.
If you break this rule
- Overstay fines accrue per day and are collected at the airport before you can leave.
- A long overstay can mean a temporary entry ban on future trips.
- Not being registered or carrying no ID can trigger a fine on the spot.
