Why people in Nha Trang need a Visa Run Tour
Vietnam's 90-day E-Visa is a lifeline for long-stayers — but it has one limit everyone hits: you CANNOT get a new E-Visa while you're inside Vietnam.
🔑 To keep staying, you must EXIT and then RE-ENTER with a new E-Visa. A Visa Run Tour is the cleanest way to do that — in a single day.
The most convenient way is to join a Visa Run Tour: a same-day border-gate day tour, organised by a licensed travel unit, with support to renew your 90-day E-Visa.
🧭 What a Visa Run Tour actually is
A Visa Run Tour is a same-day border-gate day-tour program: the travel unit takes you to an international border gate, you complete exit–entry formalities, and you return to Nha Trang the same day with a new 90-day E-Visa.
💡 ViEntry is a technology platform that connects you with the licensed travel unit organising this tour. ViEntry is not a coach company, does not sell tickets, and does not take your money — the travel unit quotes the final price and takes payment directly.
👥 Who should join a Visa Run Tour?
- People in Vietnam on a 90-day E-Visa that's about to expire who want to keep staying
- People who need a new 90-day E-Visa without flying home
- People who want door-to-door pickup in Nha Trang with formality support, rather than doing it all alone
(If you already have a new E-Visa or are visa-exempt and just need the border crossing, see the Border Run Tour — leaner and cheaper.)
🎒 What a Visa Run Tour includes
- Door-to-door pickup in the Nha Trang area
- A modern, comfortable tourist vehicle for the day trip
- Support with border-gate formalities (handled by the travel/operating unit)
- Support to renew your 90-day E-Visa — the result is issued by Vietnam Immigration
- Flexible pickup time and route per group, not rigid
💬 The whole experience is organised by the operating travel unit; ViEntry handles the connection, technology, and multilingual support.
🗺️ Registering & price: how it really works
- Send a request to hold a tour spot (on the web, the @VientryVisaBot bot, or the Mini App): choose the tour departure date, number of guests, and your details.
- You receive a HOLD CODE — a non-binding request; your spot in the group is held temporarily.
- A trusted travel unit contacts you to advise the final price and guide payment — you pay the travel unit directly, not ViEntry.
💰 The price shown on the system is a market reference price; the travel unit sets the final price when you register.
🔔 Worried your visa is about to expire?
Overstaying in Vietnam can mean fines of tens of millions of VND and even an entry ban. Don't let the date slip.
👉 Turn on free visa reminders with Visa Tracker — enter the date on your ENTRY STAMP, get alerts at 30 / 21 / 15 / 7 days. Free, no account needed.
✅ Your Visa Run Tour day: A to Z
- Prepare: bring your original passport (valid at least 6 months).
- Pickup: be at the agreed pickup point with the travel unit on time.
- At the border: complete exit formalities (with the travel/operating unit's support).
- Photograph the exit stamp: after crossing, you get a link to photograph your EXIT STAMP — a required step to finish and receive your new 90-day E-Visa.
- Receive the new E-Visa via @VientryVisaBot / email → re-enter Vietnam the same day.
⚠️ Common misconceptions
❌ "Is this buying a bus ticket?" → No. It's registering to join a border-gate day tour run by a travel unit — not a fixed-route bus ticket.
❌ "Is ViEntry a coach/transport company?" → No. ViEntry is a technology platform connecting you with a licensed travel unit; it does not transport passengers or sell tickets.
❌ "Is the website price the final fixed price?" → It's a reference price; the travel unit sets the final price when you register.
❌ "Can I get a new E-Visa myself while inside Vietnam?" → No. By law, an E-Visa is only issued to people outside Vietnam — so you must exit and apply anew.
❌ "Is a visa run legal?" → Exiting via an international border gate and re-entering with a new E-Visa is a common, transparent approach for tourism/business; policy can change — check official sources before travelling.

Note: ViEntry is a technology platform connecting foreigners with independent, licensed travel and service operating units. The border-gate tour is organised by the travel unit, which sets the final price, takes payment directly, and is responsible to the customer. ViEntry provides reference prices, advice, and technology; it does not operate passenger transport, does not sell tickets, is not an immigration authority, and does not provide legal advice.
