🇻🇳 Vietnam visa requirements for Bangladeshi citizens

Entry rules for Bangladesh passport holders

Before traveling to Vietnam, Bangladeshi citizens must apply for an electronic visa through the official Vietnam government portal. Processing usually takes from a few hours to a few business days, so apply well before your flight. Print a copy of the approval to show at check-in and on arrival.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Vietnam immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

How this compares

Vietnam is not among them — it is one of the 113 destinations that still require an embassy visa or an application before departure.

In the other direction, Vietnamese citizens traveling to Bangladesh face a different rule: visa required.

Across South-Eastern Asia as a whole, 2 of 11 destinations are open to Bangladeshi travelers without arranging a visa in advance.
