Does the Silence of the Government Portal Feel Like a Dead End?

It is the eve of the Vietnamese Lunar New Year 2026. You can almost hear the firecrackers and smell the spring incense. But then, you look at your inbox. Empty. Your e-visa hasn’t arrived, or you just realized you never applied.

From February 14 to February 22, 2026, Vietnam officially pauses. The Immigration Department goes dark. The “Pending” status on the government website stays frozen for nine long days. To most travelers, this silence means a canceled flight, lost hotel deposits, and the heartbreak of a ruined holiday.

“When the official lights go out, our lanterns stay on.”

You have just found the “backstage pass” to Vietnam. While the standard portal is an automated void during the Tet Holiday 2026, we are the human experts who remain at our posts to ensure your journey begins exactly as planned. You are in the right place.

The “Backstage Access”: How We Do What Others Can’t

You might wonder how we can issue a Visa to Vietnam urgently on Tet Holiday when the offices are officially closed.

We are not a computer algorithm; we are a dedicated agency with deep, local roots in Vietnam since 2007. Over the decades, we have established priority channels and “on-call” relationships for holiday emergencies. We don’t wait for the holiday to end to process your request. We have the internal reach to ensure a duty officer reviews and approves your specific application while the rest of the country is celebrating Happy Tet.

Why an Expert is Non-Negotiable During Tet 2026

During the Vietnamese Tet Holiday, the margin for error is zero.

• No Second Chances: If the government portal rejects your photo on February 15th, there is no one to call. You won’t get a response until the 23rd.
• The Complexity of 2026: This is the Year of the Fire Horse—travel volumes are expected to break records, and system glitches are common.
• Expert Oversight: We audit your passport scan and photo with a “human eye” before submission. We catch the shadows, the glares, and the typos that automated systems use as excuses to disrupt your plans.

The Effortless “Rescue” Solution

If you are standing at the airport or packing your bags and realize your visa is missing, do not panic. We provide a streamlined, high-speed solution to rescue your Vietnam visa on Tet Holiday.

Visit us at www.visa-vietnam.org for a process that takes less than five minutes of your time.

What you need to provide for an e-visa:

Transparent Holiday Pricing (Case 3: Emergency)

During the 9-day government closure, the cost reflects the “Premium Duty” status required to secure an officer’s approval during the national holiday.

• Processing Time: Submit your order before 14:30 (GMT+7) and we will deliver your approved visa to your email by 18:30 the same day.

Expert Tips for an Express Vietnam Visa on Tet Holiday

1. Avoid “Pending” Purgatory: If you already applied on the government site and it’s “Pending,” do not wait. It will not move until Feb 23. You need a new emergency application through us to clear the gate.
2. Use High Resolution: Take the photo of your passport in a well-lit room to avoid glare on the plastic cover, which is the #1 cause of rejection.
3. Stay “On Call”: After applying, check your email every 30 minutes. If we need a better photo, we want to notify you immediately to keep your 4-hour timeline.

Note for Chinese E-Passport Holders:

If your passport (number starting with ‘E’) contains the “nine-dash line” map, your e-visa is valid, but you must stop at the “Landing Visa” counter at the airport to receive a loose-leaf visa before proceeding to immigration. There is no extra government fee for this exchange.
