How to stay in Vietnam more than 45 days
While the new Vietnam visa-exemption policy offers travelers with ease, some visitors may wish to stay in Vietnam for more than 45 days. Here is the 02 common ways for visitors to extend stay duration in Vietnam.
Apply for a 90-day Vietnam eVisa for the entire trip
If your plan from the beginning is more than 45 days, it’s better for you to apply for a 90-day (3-month) visa with single or multiple entries on your need. The Vietnam e-visa is available to all nationalities so while the application process is not so complicated. As a result, it is considered an ideal choice for those seeking a hassle-free continuous stay without border runs or exit visa.

Apply for a Vietnam visa run to receive another 45-day exemption
If you don’t want to apply for a new visa, you can do a “Vietnam visa run”. This means you will need to exit Vietnam near the end of their exemption period to the neighboring countries, for example Thailand, China, Cambodia, or Laos, and then re-entering Vietnam to receive another 45-day exemption.
