This article will explain the customers all the information about Vietnam visa extension and renewal so that
you can extend your stay permit in Vietnam without leaving the country. It covers:
What is visa extension or renewal?
This section will let you know what is exactly visa extension and renewal in Vietnam and how they are
different from each other.
Visa extension
Visa extension is an action that is applied for foreigners who wish to prolong their current stay in Vietnam
without leaving the country. By this action, you will get an extension stamp on your passport indicating your
new stay duration.
Note: Visa extension is good for single entry only.
Visa renewal
Visa renewal almost the same as visa extension as it also allows foreigners to extend their stay in Vietnam
without leaving the country.
However, if you renew visa, you will be granted a new visa sticker and stay duration stamp on your passport
with the new duration permission. And therefore, the visa renewal fee is higher than the visa extension fee
because you must pay stamping fee and visa sticker fee.
Note: This service is now not offered by the Vietnam Immigration Office. We will keep you updated
immediately upon new developments.

2. Visa Extension/Renewal Requirements
To extend/review Vietnam visa, your original passport must:
 be valid for at least 06 months from the time of extension/renewal.
 have at least 02 blank pages.
Why should you choose a visa extension?
 The only choice to continue remaining in Vietnam legally after your visa expiry date without leaving
the country as visa run is not available during COVID 19
 Save your cost as the extension fee is much cheaper than the renewal fee.
 Avoid being taken into the blacklist of the Vietnam Immigration Department because of overstaying.
 Have more time to settle your business in Vietnam which might be interrupted if you leave Vietnam
and then come back with a new visa, or cannot come back in COVID 19.
