Hi All

 

I have a Vietnamese visa that expires on November 3 , 2017.  I plan on travailing to Vietnam on Oct 5 , 2017 to October 19, 2016.  Will the Vietnamese immigration allow me to enter Vietnam with such a short expiration date of Nov 3, 2017?  Do you know if certain airlines will not allow me to board with November 3 , 2016 expiring Vietnam visa?  My U.S. passport is good for another 9 years or so I am OK with the passport but my concern is the Vietnamese visa expiring on November 3 only few weeks before my trip.

 

Thanks in advance.

Is your visa expiring on Nov 3 ,2017 OR Nov 3 2016

    Well, as long as you enter Vietnam before your visa expires then that is fine. But if your visa is already expired then if i am not mistaken there is visa on arrival of USC or you can check online how to do it. 

 

I believe you plan to travel Oct 5 2017 - Oct 19 2017 and NOT 2016?

You're good to go. Visa is good up to and including expiration date (local time/date). The only dates I worry about is when my U.S. passport is falling into the last six months of validity. Visas are good throughout the period for which they are issued. Have a safe trip!
