As usual, there are two kinds of fee that the visa applicants will have to pay when using visa on arrival, consisting of service fee and stamping fee. Service fee means the fee service users need to pay to the travel agent for processing visa application and returning Vietnam Visa Approval Letter issued by Vietnam Immigration Department to their email; while the latter is the fee to be paid by cash directly to Immigration Officer at Noi Bai, Tan Son Nhat or Da Nang International Airport to get visa stamped on their passports.
