This section will let you know what is exactly visa extension and renewal in Vietnam and how they are different from each other.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Visa extension<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
Visa extension is an action that is applied for foreigners who wish to prolong their current stay in Vietnam without leaving the country. By this action, you will get an extension\u00a0stamp on your passport indicating your new stay duration.<\/p>\n
Note<\/strong>: Visa extension is good for single entry only.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Visa renewal<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n
Visa renewal is almost the same as visa extension as it also allows foreigners to extend their stay in Vietnam without leaving the country.<\/p>\n
However, if you renew your visa, you will be granted a new visa sticker and stay duration stamp on your passport with the new duration permission. And therefore, the visa renewal fee is higher than the visa extension fee because you must pay the stamping fee and visa sticker fee.<\/p>\n
Note<\/em><\/strong>: This service is now not offered by the Vietnam Immigration Office. We will keep you updated immediately upon new developments.<\/em><\/p>\n
