Basically, Vietnam visa categorized in 2 main types: Vietnam tourist visa and business visa. Belgium passport holders can apply for Vietnam business visa online at lower cost with simple procedures or apply at the Vietnam Embassy in foreign countries.
Business visa is granted to those who enter Vietnam for business purposes or who have a leisure trip which takes longer than one month. A business visa is normally valid for three months (single or multiple entry). The Belgium businessmen need to get an official entry clearance from their sponsors, usually their employers if they apply for a visa at the Vietnam Embassy in Belgium. If you, a Belgian citizen, do not have any business partners, employers, or other sponsors who can provide you with an entry clearance, you can also apply for a business visa on arrival for a stay of up to 90 days.
From Belgium, applicants should prepare some following documents to submit at the Vietnam Embassy or Consulate office:
. Valid passport
. Sponsor invitation letter (not required if you apply for a visa on arrival)
. Completed application form
. Passport size photograph
. Application fee
. Criminal record (might not be compulsory)
All these documents should be submitted to the Vietnam Embassy in Belgium at least 1 week before departure date.
