About Us

Helping travelers check and understand their Vietnam visa

Check Vietnam Visa Status is an independent travel resource with one purpose: making Vietnam’s e-visa process clear, calm, and stress-free. Every year hundreds of thousands of travelers apply for a Vietnam e-visa and then face the same anxious wait — has it been approved? why hasn’t the status changed? what do I do if my flight is tomorrow? We answer those questions in plain language.

Who’s behind this site

Our guides are written and edited by Kelly Thompson, a Vietnam travel specialist with over ten years of experience helping international visitors enter Vietnam smoothly. Kelly Thompson is a Vietnam travel specialist and the lead editor at Check Vietnam Visa Status.

Kelly’s guidance is grounded in the official Vietnam Immigration e-visa portal (evisa.gov.vn) and the real questions travelers ask every day, and she updates it whenever Vietnam’s visa rules change.

How we work

We are an independent informational resource and are not affiliated with the Government of Vietnam or its immigration authorities. For official applications and status checks we always point readers to the official portal at evisa.gov.vn. Everything we publish is based on the official rules and real traveler experience, and we update it as Vietnam’s entry requirements change.

Our promise

Clear guidance, no jargon, and no hype — just the practical answers you need before, during, and after your Vietnam visa application.
