Vietnam Visa Requirements For Finland: New Updates 2024

Finnish nationals who wish to travel to Vietnam require a visa if their trips are longer than 45 days. With the electronic visa policy, the Vietnamese government hopes to make it simpler for Finnish visitors to enter the nation. The Vietnam Immigration Services is pleased to be able to provide Finnish citizens with this service in an effort to further the good ties that currently exist between our two nations.

Prior to leaving on vacation, it is crucial to understand the types of visas that are available. Fortunately, Finns can now visit Vietnam for a brief amount of time thanks to a Vietnam eVisa.

Why do Finnish residents need visas to enter Vietnam?

Finland is exempt from Vietnam visas for up to 45 days. That means if they intend to visit Vietnam for less than 45 days, they do not need to obtain a visa. On the other hand, Finnish nationals require a visa if they wish to remain in Vietnam for more than 45 days.

The introduction of the e-visa has sped up the Vietnam visa application process by eliminating the need to submit a traditional visa application in person at an embassy or consulate.

Within 90 days for single or multiple entries, Finnish nationals will be able to travel to Vietnam for leisure or business with an e-Visa.

What is the maximum duration of stay for Finnish citizens in Vietnam?

Finnish nationals can utilize electronic visas to enter Vietnam and stay there for up to 90 days. Starting on the arrival date specified in the e-Visa application form, this type of visa is valid for 03 months. You cannot enter Vietnam before or after the e-expiration date of the visa.
