Vietnam visa for Turkish citizens: urgent cut-offs in Ankara time
Standard takes 5 to 7 working days. The urgent speeds use Vietnamese working days, which start at 8:00 in Vietnam, or 4:00 in Ankara.
| Order cut-off | Ankara time |
|---|---|
| Same day (Vietnam 14:15) | 10:15 |
| Super Urgent (Vietnam 15:30) | 11:30 |
| Emergency (Vietnam 17:30) | 13:30 |
| 1 working day (Vietnam 18:00) | 14:00 |
Example: you order on Tuesday at 5:00 in Ankara, which is 9:00 on Tuesday in Vietnam. Emergency arrives by 6:30, Super Urgent by 7:30 and Same day by 14:00, all in Ankara time. Ordered on Tuesday at 12:00 instead (16:00 in Vietnam), Emergency still arrives by 13:30, but Super Urgent and Same day have passed their cut-offs: Super Urgent arrives on Wednesday at 7:00 and Same day on Wednesday at 10:00.
The weekend window starts at Friday 14:00 in Ankara and ends on Sunday at 12:00. In that window, order the Weekend and public holidays speed before 11:20 and it arrives by 14:30 the same day. Our urgent e-visa page has every speed in Vietnam time.

Visa on arrival for Turkish citizens
Turkish citizens can use visa on arrival only when flying into Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang or Cam Ranh. You need an approval letter before you board and pay a $25 or $50 stamping fee at the airport.
It does not work for cruise ports or land borders. For most trips the e-visa is simpler; you can compare both when you choose a service.
Vietnam embassy in Turkey
Vietnam has an embassy in Turkey, but you do not need it for an e-visa, which is issued online. The Embassy of Vietnam in Ankara is at 414 Sokak No. 14, Birlik Mahallesi, Çankaya. Our page on the Vietnam embassy in Turkey has the details.
Tips for Turkish travelers
Two points help Turkish travelers: reading the exemption list correctly, and not mixing up the direction of travel.
Diplomatic and official passports are different
The 90-day stay on Turkey's row of the exemption list belongs to diplomatic and official or service passports only. A holder of an ordinary Turkish passport needs the e-visa, even if a colleague with an official passport enters without one.
Mind the direction of travel
Many search results about Turkey and visas explain how Vietnamese citizens get a Turkish visa. This page is for Turkish citizens going to Vietnam, so ignore fee and form details from the Turkish side.
eVisaVietnam.com is a private visa service operated by TK VIET NAM., JSC, not the Vietnamese government. You can apply yourself at evisa.gov.vn for US$25. If you want your files checked and a delivery time backed by a full refund, apply for your e-visa with us.
