Visa on arrival depends on how much you pay
To get visa on arrival you will need to get a pre-approved visa letter. This can be obtained from a lot of sites, we got ours from http://www.vietnamvisapro.com/. As usual, with an Indian passport you will need to pay more money. We paid 18$ each.
Visa Fee is 45$ for 1 month single entry, 1 month multiple entry is 65$.
The website needs basic details of your passport, date of entry in Vietnam. They usually take 3-4 working days to issue this letter. You need to print a copy of this letter and have passport size photograph ready at the airport along with the visa fees in USD or VND. You land at the airport, fill a form, submit the passport, the form, along with the visa letter at the airport Visa on Arrival Counter, then wait for your name to be called. The waiting times are usually up to 25-30 minutes.
You get your visa, and get through immigration, once you go out, you are like a stray dog who gets chased by the Dog Catching authorities.
Other option is to get your visa from your nearest embassy, which we would not recommend as getting the visa yourself is easy and not many countries will allow you this luxury with your Indian passport.
Can we get land entry at Vietnam with an Indian Passport or only entry through airport is allowed? For exit is there any such criterion?
