⚠️ Important Notes
Pakistani passport holders can apply for Vietnam eVisa entirely online without visiting any embassy or visa application center. The eVisa portal is the only official channel. Ensure your passport has at least 6 months of validity and one blank page. Always verify the list of accepted entry points on the official portal before travel, as not all border crossings accept eVisas. Do not use third-party websites that charge higher fees for the same eVisa service.
