Hello,
There is so much confusing information about getting visas for Vietnam! >_<
I have a British passport and will visit Ho Chi Minh City for a few days. Then fly to Laos for a week or so. And then visit Hanoi for a few days.
I guess I need a Multiple entry 30-day tourist visa. I contacted the Vietnamese Embassy here in London and the price is £85!! Ouch.
They also say that Visas on Arrival is not recommended as they are scams. I see other people in the forum successfully getting VOAs for say, $50 (around £30 for both letter and stamp fee).
How can there be such a big discrepancy in prices? If the Embassy price was a little bit higher, then I would definitely go for that - but this is a significant cost difference here!
Any thoughts? Can anyone recommend a reliable and reasonably priced VOA company that they successfully used?
Many thanks,
