Where Can You Enter Vietnam With an E-Visa? All 83 Ports (2026)
You can enter Vietnam with an e-visa at 83 international checkpoints: 17 airports, 27 land border gates and 39 seaports. The list was set by Resolution 127/NQ-CP (42 checkpoints, August 2023) and extended by Resolution 389/NQ-CP on 2 December 2025, which added 41 more and took effect on the day it was signed.
visa-vietnam.hk is a private visa service, not the Vietnamese government. You can also apply yourself on the official portal evisa.gov.vn.
The rule in one line
The e-visa issued in 2026 no longer prints a port of entry. When you apply, you still choose a port, and you should enter where you said you would. In practice, what matters is the type of port you chose:
| You chose | You can enter at |
|---|---|
| An airport | Any airport on the list below |
| A seaport | Any seaport on the list below |
| A land border gate | Any land border gate on the list below |
If you are not sure how you will arrive, choose the port type you are most likely to use. Switching from an airport to a land border, or the other way round, is the case to avoid. You can leave Vietnam through any checkpoint on the list.
What your 2026 e-visa shows
The PDF shows the visa number and code, valid from and until, single or multiple entry, full name, date of birth, nationality, passport number and expiry, and purpose of entry. There is no line for the port of entry. Check every field against your passport as soon as you receive it; see common e-visa mistakes.

Frequently asked questions
Is Long Thanh Airport on the e-visa list?
Yes. Resolution 389/NQ-CP lists it, to apply once the airport is put into operation. Commercial flights are reported to start on 24 December 2026; check with your airline.
I chose Hanoi but now fly into Ho Chi Minh City. Do I need a new e-visa?
No. Both are airports, so the same e-visa works.
I chose an airport but will now cross by land from Cambodia. What should I do?
This changes the port type. Apply for a new e-visa with a land border gate, or keep your plan to arrive by air.
Can I exit through a different checkpoint?
Yes, through any checkpoint on the list.
Where is the official list?
Resolution 127/NQ-CP (14 August 2023) and Resolution 389/NQ-CP (2 December 2025) of the Government of Vietnam.
