Can I get a Vietnam visa without a date of arrival/departure?

No, you cannot obtain a Vietnam visa without providing a specific date of arrival and departure. When applying for eVisa or at the Vietnamese embassy, you are required to submit your intended travel dates. These dates are necessary for visa processing and must align with your travel plans.

However, eVisa allows for some flexibility within the validity period. You can enter Vietnam on any date after your intended arrival, but you must leave before the visa expires. Changing your travel dates outside of this window requires applying for a new visa.

Therefore, when you apply, you must include an expected date of arrival, even though the precise dates may change. You might select an estimated date that allows you flexibility if you're not sure of your precise intentions.
