Actually, once you apply for a visa on arrival through Vietnam visa DEPT., you are engaging in an agreement to use our company service (an international travel agency service). Accordingly, we will submit the documents, including a nominal tour program to the Vietnam Immigration Department for their approval on your entry (the program can be changed later). We may ask you to provide tour programs and make a change if necessary, or we will take full responsibility on the nominal program which is given. Therefore, if you travel Vietnam under programs organized by tour agency or you travel by yourselves, you are always guaranteed to use a program organized by a international travel agency. In the letter of approval, you can see the name of the travel agency on the top of the letter.
