Can I change the entry airport after getting my Vietnam E-visa?

If you're planning to travel to Vietnam with an E-visa, you may wonder: “Can I Enter Vietnam Through a Different Airport Than the One on My E-vis?”

The answer is yes — Vietnam's E-visa policy is more flexible than many people think.

You Don’t Have to Enter at the Airport You Selected

When you apply for a Vietnam E-visa, you must choose your intended port of entry and exit (such as Hanoi, Da Nang, or Ho Chi Minh City). However, this information is only used for visa processing and does not restrict your actual travel plans.

In fact, the entry and exit ports are not even printed on your E-visa. This means immigration officers won’t check whether you’re entering through the airport you selected on the application.

You Can Enter Vietnam Through Any E-visa-Eligible Port

As long as you use an official E-visa entry point, you are allowed to enter Vietnam. Whether you arrive by international airport, land border, or seaport, your Vietnam E-visa will be accepted.

For example:

You applied with Noi Bai Airport (Hanoi) as your entry point but you arrive in Tan Son Nhat Airport (Ho Chi Minh City).

No problem at all — you can enter Vietnam through either airport with the same E-visa, as long as both are E-visa-supported ports.

Key Takeaway:

Yes, you can enter Vietnam from a different airport or border gate than the one you selected on your E-visa application — as long as it is an approved E-visa entry point. There’s no need to change your visa or reapply if your arrival plans change.
