Urgent Vietnam Visa on Weekend/Holiday
Few things derail a trip faster than discovering at the last minute that your Vietnam visa isn’t ready especially when it’s a weekend, Vietnamese public holiday, or Tet (Lunar New Year) period when government immigration offices are officially closed. In these high-pressure situations, an Urgent Vietnam Visa on Weekend/Holiday becomes the only realistic way to save your flight and your itinerary.
What is an Urgent Vietnam Visa on Weekend/Holiday?
A “weekend/holiday” Vietnam visa is not a separate visa category, it’s an expedited processing service applied to either:
- a Vietnam e-Visa (electronic visa you download and print), or
- a Visa on Arrival (VOA) approval letter (for stamping at the airport).
The key difference is speed and availability: reputable visa agencies maintain direct working relationships with Vietnam Immigration Department staff who can process urgent cases even on Saturdays, Sundays, Tet holidays, National Day (Sept 2), and other official closures.
Thanks to Vietnam’s expanded e-Visa program (open to all nationalities since August 2023), same-day or next-morning approval is now realistic — even during major holiday periods — when you use a professional urgent service.
When Do You Really Need Weekend / Holiday Urgent Processing?
This service becomes essential in the following real-life situations:
- Your flight is on Saturday, Sunday, or during Tet / public holiday and your standard e-Visa application is still “pending” or “under amendment”.
- You completely forgot to apply and your departure is in 24–48 hours, falling over a weekend or holiday.
- You received an e-Visa but it contains a mistake (wrong middle name, passport number typo, wrong birth date) and immigration offices are closed.
- You need to board an international flight during a Vietnamese holiday closure and airlines will deny boarding without valid visa proof.
- You’re traveling during peak Tet season (late Jan / early Feb) when normal processing can take 7–14 days due to backlog.
How Fast Can a Weekend / Holiday Vietnam Visa Really Be Approved?
Processing speed depends on when you submit and which urgency tier you choose. Times below are counted during Vietnam Immigration working hours (GMT+7), but top agencies offer true 24/7 emergency support.Important: During Tet holiday (usually 7–10 day closure) or long weekends, only agencies with special channels can deliver approvals. Normal government processing is impossible on official non-working days.
