  ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The best embassy I have ever visited. Although it is small, it is easy to reach by public transportation, and the entire process is incredibly efficient. The staff were polite, professional, and helpful throughout the visit. Everything was quick, well organized, and hassle-free. My visa was ready in about 20 minutes. Without a doubt, this has been one of the best experiences I've ever had at an embassy. Thank you very much for the excellent service!

  Very convenient. Friendly consulate staff. Went in, filled out the form. Left the forms and passport there for 20 min while I go to get cash (banking not accepted). Came back, paid and got my passport with the Visa sticker done already. Best and fastest experience I've ever had getting a Visa.

  Super Friendly Staff Super Easy Service Applied for visa on 3/10/24 Paid 1,050,000 VND. If you have a Vietnamese Bank Account you can pay via Bank Transfer Cost is 40 USD or 1,050,000 VND 1 x passport Photo required (3 x 4). I arrived with 3 x 6 and they still accepted Some helpful maps and information for Laos tourism purposes available in the waiting room Less than 20 minutes from handing in paperwork to receiving back the passport with visa sticker applied

  Simple place with great service! Took me 15 minutes from entering to receiving my visa printed and stuck in passport. 30 day visa costs 1million vnd + 50k and bring one 4 x 3 printed photo. Fill in one simple form and the visa is yours. Decided I’d go here rather than deal with land border visa issues although I’m still expecting a “stamp fee” at the border, but this embassy is great. Looking forward to my short trip in Laos.

  We came completely unprepared: outside of opening hours because we didn’t check, forgot to bring enough cash and they still helped us. Visa was ready by the time we came back from the ATM

  Professional, friendly, polite and very efficient. Ive never needed to visit an embassy and the whole process of my tourist visa (one that allows me to cross all Vietnamese land boarders) was completed in 30min. Just FYI online visa applications don't allow And it's a beautiful old building, this style is sadly no longer being constructed.

  The Visa process was fast and easy. Less than 10 mintues. Fill the document, give your passport and wait. That’s all. The price for my European passport was 1.100.000VND
