Extending or renewing is a good solution for Algerian to stay legally in Vietnam without exiting. However, this way is very complicated, expensive fee and time-consuming. For Algerian citizens can exit Vietnam by any chance, you are advised to reapply for a new Vietnam visa on arrival when re-enter the country. It is much more convenient, time-saving and economical then extending Vietnam visa.

Procedure to apply for Vietnam visa on arrival is very simple. Applicants can submit Vietnam visa application, and then make payment for visa approval fee. We will send visa approval letter to you via registered email after 3 working days. What you need to do is just print the letter and bring it to Vietnam airport for stamping Vietnam visa onto your passport.

2. The differences between extending and renewing

Currently Algerian citizens can use one of two ways to stay longer in Vietnam without exiting: getting visa extension or visa renewal. Vietnam visa extension is a seal but Vietnam visa renewal is a new visa stamped onto your passport. Both of them are legal, but Vietnam visa renewal can help you to extend for Vietnam visa easily for the next time. Thus the cost of renew is more expensive than visa extension.
