What is a Vietnam Student Visa?
A Vietnam Student Visa is issued to foreign nationals who have received admission to a recognized educational institution in Vietnam. It allows students to legally enter and stay in Vietnam for educational purposes under the approval of Vietnamese immigration authorities.
The visa category, validity, and extension rules are determined by the Embassy of Vietnam and the Vietnam Immigration Department based on the applicant’s admission and supporting documents.
