|
|
Hi,
I have found myself in an awkward situation regarding my vietnamese visa.
I am currently (saturday) in Luang Prabang, and i am due to fly to Hanoi on Monday (13.30).
I do not have my visa sorted for arrival and have just been told that the tour operators need 1 working day to get it.
I have tried speaking to my course provider (Apollo) but have found it really difficult to get hold of anyone who can help.
I was wondering if any of you would have any suggestions?
(except for not being so stupid in the future...)
Rally appreciate any help,
Jack |

As an experienced Apollo teacher (where the best become better!) You should know that everything is shut until Monday because of Tet.
Your only hope is to get a rush invitation letter off a tour operator website (there are some that can do it in 4 hours) and hope that you can get it and print it off in time for your flight.
Good luck! |

Go online, find some visa-on-arrival sites send out some emails asking them if they can drop off or send your visa-on-arrival to your port of entry.
If that cannot be done you might have an issue. |

thanks for the info, the vietnamese embassy is around the corner so i will try and get a rushed visa on the morning of the flight from them.
If that fails, i will call an online place and get them to do it for me.
Thanks again for the help,
Jack |

I presume you are taking the CELTA course at Apollo.
As noted by BenE, this is Tet.
Best to wait.
Good luck. |
