What to prepare in Saint Kitts and Nevis

A Vietnam e-visa application from Saint Kitts and Nevis needs four things ready:

  • A Saint Kitts and Nevis 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.

When to apply from Saint Kitts and Nevis

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. Basseterre is 11 hours behind Vietnam. Basseterre keeps the same time all year, so the gap does not change.

Your time in Basseterre Vietnam time
8:00 19:00
12:00 23:00
18:00 5:00 the next day
22:00 9:00 the next day

For Same day delivery, order between 21:00 and 3:15 in Basseterre, on a day that is a working day in Vietnam. Order in the evening, not the morning. An order placed in Basseterre at 21:00 reaches Vietnam as its working day begins at 8:00. Our guide for Saint Kitts and Nevis citizens has the full table of cut-offs, and the urgent e-visa page covers every speed.

Paying for your e-visa from Saint Kitts and Nevis

You pay in US dollars by credit or debit card. A Standard single-entry e-visa costs $47, about EC$127, government fee included.

Figures use 1 USD = 2.7025 XCD (xe.com, October 10, 2026). Your card is charged in US dollars; your bank converts the amount into East Caribbean dollars (EC$) 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. EC$68).

Mistakes Saint Kitts and Nevis applicants make

The first two points below are specific to Saint Kitts and Nevis applicants; the last two apply to everyone.

  • Old advice to use visa on arrival: Older guides tell Saint Kitts and Nevis travelers to use visa on arrival because there is no Vietnamese embassy to visit.
  • 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.
  • A gate you will not use: Choose the airport or border gate you will really enter through, and check the ports of entry list.

If you already filed a faulty application, read about e-visa problems first. Ready? Apply for your e-visa and a person checks your files before they go in.
