How to Apply for Vietnam Visa for Ecuadorian Citizens?
Fortunately, there are currently 02 ways to get a Vietnam visa for Ecuador passport holders: apply for an embassy visa or apply for a visa on arrival.
1. Apply for an embassy visa
With this option, the Ecuadorian travelers need to contact an embassy/consulate office of Vietnam. However, there is currently no embassy/consulate of Vietnam established in Ecuador. As such:
- In case you are in Ecuador, contact the Vietnam embassy/consulate in Ecuador’s nearby country. You can see the list here.
- In case you are in a country having an office of Vietnam embassy/consulate, contact them for your visa application.
