Hi,

Very easy to get a Chinese Visa in Ho Chi Minh City.

My advice: do it yourself & avoid agencies as they charge you high commissions & don't always know how it really works

Normally takes 4 working days, but they can make it in 1 working day for an extra 20USD

- 1 month visa / single entry = valid 3 months from date of issue / cost 30 USD
- 2x1 month visa / 2 entries = valid 6 months from date of issue / cost 45 USD

This seems to work for any nationality. Though, it seems more expensive for US citizens.

they don't ask you for any specific document & just need you to fill a form & provide a passport photo.

hope this helps!
