Can I Get a Vietnam eVisa Directly at the Airport?

No, you cannot. With prior approval, you can only get a Vietnam visa directly on arrival at the airport. The "eVisa" (eVisa) program in Vietnam requires travelers to obtain eVisa before their arrival. This eVisa is typically arranged through a licensed travel agency or visa service provider. Once you have eVisa, you can pick up your visa at the airport upon landing. The eVisa is applicable only for air travel, and it’s available for those arriving at one of Vietnam's major international airports: Noi Bai (Hanoi), Tan Son Nhat (Ho Chi Minh City), and Da Nang.

To summarize, you need to secure eVisa before departure to present it upon arrival at the airport. You’ll then receive the actual visa after paying a stamping fee. Without eVisa, you cannot board your flight or receive a visa at the airport.
