Vietnam e-Visa for citizens of Togo: online application, fees and processing time 2026

Yes. A Togolese passport does not allow entry into Vietnam without prior authorisation: you must obtain an e-Visa before leaving. Once approved, it allows a stay of up to 90 days in Vietnam. This length of stay is neither the processing time nor the validity date of your passport.

Two files are essential: a recent passport photo that meets the portal’s guidelines and a readable scan of the passport data page. The official fee observed is 25 to 50 USD, paid online when you apply. If a website asks for a higher amount or extra processing fees, it is not the official portal.

On the official portal evisa.gov.vn, open a new application and enter your identity exactly as on the passport, your travel dates and your planned address in Vietnam. Add the photo and the passport data page, then pay the fee with a payment method accepted by the portal. Keep the application code to follow its status.

The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Togo 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.

The processing time observed is 3 business days; still apply well before departure, as a rejected photo or a typing error may force you to start again. Flights from Togo involve stopovers: check the transit rules of the countries you pass through. For general information, consult the official page mofa.gov.vn.

Three mistakes come up often: using a site that imitates the portal and charges service fees, uploading a non-compliant photo, and entering travel dates that do not match the tickets. Once the e-Visa is approved, reread it: if the name or passport number is wrong, check the official portal for guidance before travelling.
