What are the exact e-visa photo and passport page size and format requirements?
What size and format do I need for the portrait photo and passport page on the Vietnam e-visa?
Answers (1)
The e-visa needs two separate uploads: a portrait photo of you and a scan of your passport data page. Both are uploaded as image files, usually JPG.
Typical portrait rules are a 4 x 6 cm style photo with a white or plain light background, taken recently, face centered, no glasses or hat. The passport upload must show the full photo page, with the machine-readable lines at the bottom, and no glare or cropped edges.
File limits change over time and different guides quote different numbers, so rely on what the portal shows at the moment you upload. A small file in standard JPG format is always safer than a large one.
Read the current instructions on evisa.gov.vn before you upload. If you prefer help, our application form accepts your files and we check them before they are submitted.
