Does anyone know if the current fee for obtaining a Vietnamese visa while in Bangkok is still 2300 baht plus 400 baht for same day service? (Single entry 30 day visa)

Thanks.

Unfortunately, VOA won't work for us (matter of time between flights in Ho Chi Minh City). We've decided the best (although not cheapest) way for us is via the embassy.

Read somewhere that visa prices were raising 50% next year so keep that in mind if u are traveling in 2013.

We actually are arriving in VietNam on January 3, but will be getting our visas December 19. I, too, had read something about rising costs; hope we can beat them.

Thanks.

Does anybody have an idea about the current processing time and prices to get a visa for Vietnam in Bangkok?

Hi,

Applied for a 30 day single entry visa today. Cost THB 2500 for next day approval. You can only pay in THB (have exact money) and the people there aren't the happiest I've ever met. Take a pen and passport photos. Know exactly when you plan on going to Vietnam. If you have any questions about the area the motorbike guys out the front are really helpful. The embassy is open from 8:30-11:30 then closed till 13:30-16:30 t's a pretty boring neighborhood so getting there bang on time is probably a good idea.
