Dubai Visa for Vietnamese Travellers, Made Simple
Vietnamese travellers need a pre-arranged UAE tourist eVisa. A 2026 visa-on-arrival rule only helps those who also hold a residence permit from a major economy, so most apply online. We prepare and review your file and email your approval. Ho Chi Minh City flies nonstop to Dubai in about seven and a half hours.

ℹ️ About visa on arrival. In June 2026 the UAE added Vietnamese citizens to its visa-on-arrival scheme, but only for those who also hold a valid residence permit from a qualifying country such as the US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia or others. With a Vietnamese passport alone, you still need a pre-arranged tourist eVisa, which we handle for you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Dubai Visa FAQ for Vietnamese Citizens
Real questions from Vietnamese applicants, answered
Yes. Vietnamese passport holders need a pre-arranged UAE tourist eVisa. There is no automatic visa on arrival for an ordinary Vietnamese passport.
In June 2026 Vietnamese citizens were added to the visa-on-arrival scheme, but only for those who also hold a valid residence permit from a qualifying country such as the US, UK, EU, Canada or Australia. With a Vietnamese passport alone, you still apply for the eVisa in advance.
Vietnamese applicants need a passport valid at least six months, a recent photo, a confirmed return or onward ticket, and UAE accommodation details. We tell you if your case calls for extra proof of funds.
Not at all. We prepare and review the whole application for you, so first-time travellers do not have to worry about the paperwork. Most files are ready in minutes.
For Vietnamese applicants we offer Standard within 12 working days, Priority within 9, and Express within 6. We advise applying from Vietnam at least 15 days before you travel.
Payment is in US dollars, so the dong amount depends on your card rate. Any major card, Apple Pay or Google Pay works.
Yes. Every Vietnamese traveller, including infants and minors, needs a separate eVisa application, even a child included on a parent's passport. In some cases, for Vietnam applicants, a birth or marriage certificate may be requested to confirm the family relationship.
Your approved eVisa arrives as a PDF by email and is also available from your visa portal. For Vietnamese travellers we recommend carrying a printout for airline check-in and on arrival, with a copy on your phone as a backup. This applies to every eVisa issued for Vietnam.
You must leave the UAE before your permitted stay ends. Since February 2026 the grace period has been removed, and a fine of AED 50 per day accrues from the day after your stay expires, so Vietnamese travellers from Vietnam should plan the departure date carefully.
No. UAEVisaOnline.ae is a private visa-assistance service operated by Travel Rox, Inc., not affiliated with the UAE government. Vietnamese travellers may also apply directly on the official portal at a lower cost. For applicants from Vietnam, our fee covers a simplified application, expert document review, error prevention, photo validation, tracking and dedicated support.
