There are two options for residents of Sydney who require a Vietnam visa but are not eligible for visa exemptions. Option 1 is to apply for a visa directly at the Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate in Australia. Option 2 allows those traveling by air to Vietnam to apply for a visa on arrival by submitting an online application and receiving a visa approval letter, which can then be used to obtain the visa stamp at a Vietnam airport. Both options require a passport, photos, and fees, but option 2 provides a more convenient process for those living far from the Vietnamese diplomatic offices.
