Vietnam Visa

[trbarton]

Anyone that has traveled to Vietnam on Princess did you get the visa before the cruise or did you get it on the ship & if so what did you pay?

Princess organise visa's for you. They'll take your passport off you.

I was there a month ago and there was no charge (which was a pleasant surprise).

Princess will process the visa for you. The price is set by the Vietnamese Immigration and sometimes you pay a little, sometimes you pay a little more and as the above poster found sometimes they charge you nothing. Whatever the cost it'll show up on your stateroom account.

Thanks to all responses. Better to use some of my OBC.

Does the visa require a photo? we have extra copies of our passport photo that I guess could be used to make it easier and save a couple dollars.

This may be helpful.

None of the Visas that Princess obtained while on board required a photo other than the one already in your passport. They have an arrangement where passports are all that's necessary for them to get the visas. They will request your passport be given to them in advance of the port stop. Any charge will be added to your On Board Account.

 

Painless!

Here's the latest info from my Cruise Personalizer.

 

VIETNAM VISA/PASSPORT REQUIREMENT

 

A Vietnam visa is required for most guests on this voyage, including Australian, Canadian, New Zealand and U.S. passport holders. You may either obtain the visa on your own before your cruise, or a visa will be issued upon arrival in Vietnam. If you choose to have the visa issued on board, a passport-size photo or copy of your passport photo page is required, and a visa fee of USD $56.00 per person (USD $76.00 per person for those participating on an overland package) will be charged to your stateroom account.

Some guests, including UK passport holders, do not require a visa; however, they will be charged $1 per person for a landing card and a $1 per person processing fee.

All guests' passports must be valid for at least six months after departing Vietnam and must contain at least one unused page for entry/exit endorsements.

Princess on the ship can make a copy of the passport photo page for you.
