Question: Vietnam Visa renewal for Moroccan passport holder
Hello
I am Darin from the USA. I am in Hanoi now with a 3 month business visa. My cousin (Moroccan passport holder) and I came to Hanoi together by air and got a visa by arrival on October 17th, 2014. We both would like to extend our visas another three months to remain in Vietnam. We got multiple entry visas but would like to switch to single entry if possible. What is the procedure and costs for extending the visas and when should we apply (I assume a few days before January 17th is ok?)
Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Darin
Answer
Dear Darin Milner,
Thank you for your email.
We would like to inform you that under the new immigration law which took effect from 1st Jan 2015, foreigners who have business visa and wish to extend their visa must be guaranteed by their company in Vietnam. Please ask your company in Vietnam to help you to extend your visa. Otherwise, we are afraid that you must move out of Vietnam, then apply for a new visa and come back to our country.
Should you need further support, feel free to contact us.
Best regards,
