What to prepare in Nauru

A Vietnam e-visa application from Nauru needs four things ready:

• A Nauruan passport: Valid for at least 6 months from your entry date, with two blank pages.
• A data page image: The page with your photo, all four corners in view, and the two code lines at the bottom sharp, without glare.
• A portrait photo: Recent, facing the camera, white background, no glasses. The photo requirements guide shows examples that pass and fail.
• A card and an emergency contact: A card enabled for online payments to a foreign merchant, and the name, address and phone of a contact at home.

Copy your name from the two code lines at the bottom of the data page, in capital letters, including middle names. The form also asks for the address of your first night in Vietnam.

When to apply from Nauru

Apply at least two weeks before you fly if you choose Standard, because 5 to 7 working days can stretch over weekends and Vietnamese public holidays. Yaren is 5 hours ahead of Vietnam. Yaren keeps the same time all year, so the gap does not change.

For Same day delivery, order between 13:00 and 19:15 in Yaren, on a day that is a working day in Vietnam. Because Yaren is ahead of Vietnam, the Vietnamese working day falls in your afternoon and evening. An order placed before 13:00 waits until Vietnam opens at that hour. Our guide for Nauruan citizens has the full table of cut-offs, and the urgent e-visa page covers every speed.

Paying for your e-visa from Nauru

You pay in US dollars by credit or debit card. A Standard single-entry e-visa costs $47, about A$67, government fee included.

Figures use 1 USD = 1.4330 AUD (xe.com, October 10, 2026). Your card is charged in US dollars; your bank converts the amount into Australian dollars at its own rate, so your statement can differ from the figure here. See the full price table for every speed.

On evisa.gov.vn the government fee alone is US$25 (approx. A$36). If a payment fails, check that your card allows online payments to foreign merchants and retry, rather than starting a second application.

Mistakes Nauruan applicants make

The first two points below are specific to Nauruan applicants; the last two apply to everyone.

• Believing a visa-free claim: Some lookup sites say Nauruan citizens enter Vietnam without a visa. Check the Ministry's exemption lists before you rely on one.
• Mixing up passports: If you hold more than one passport, apply with the one you will present at the border and use the same one on the form, the scan and the flight booking.
• A look-alike website: The government site is evisa.gov.vn. Private services, including ours, say that they are private; leave any site that does not say who runs it.
• A gate you will not use: Choose the airport or border gate you will really enter through, and check the ports of entry list.
