Contact the local Vietnam embassy/consulate in Singapore (if you are residing in Singapore), or in nearby countries (if you are not residing in Singapore currently) to get visa stamped on your passport prior to going to Vietnam.
The applicants in this way will need to prepare the required document as guided by the embassy and then visit the embassy at least twice, one for submitting the documents and one for picking up the visa and passport.
