Where do you apply for a visa for Vietnam from Mexico?
An e-visa for Vietnam is filed entirely online: there is no counter to visit and no file to hand in. The only address that matters is the official portal.
- The application, the supporting documents and the payment all go through the official portal, from any country.
- Lookalike sites copy the portal’s name and layout, then resell the same application with a margin. Check the domain before you type in a passport number.
- The authorisation arrives by email. Keep a printed copy, some airlines ask for it at boarding.
Using an online service
You never have to use an intermediary. If you would rather have a service fill in and file the application online for you before departure, iVisa does it for a service fee, charged on top of the official fees. It does not change the decision.

You live in Mexico on another passport?
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Mexico but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

Common mistakes
Unofficial websites present themselves as Vietnam visa services and charge much more than the official fee: the only application address is evisa.gov.vn. The two surnames shown on Mexican passports are a frequent source of typing errors; copy them exactly. Finally, do not leave without the approved e-Visa.
