5 things we catch for Canadians before submission
99.3% approval rate isn't luck — these 5 mistakes account for 87% of all rejections we've ever seen.
Quebec-province Canadians using French-only passport
Quebec passports issued in French-only mode (rare but possible). Vietnam Immigration form requires English. Use English passport reading or request Canadian Passport Office bilingual version. Quebec-specific issue.
Photo wrong format/crop
4×6 cm · white background · face 80% of frame. Drugstore photos often wrong size. We recrop for $5.
Purpose-of-visit mismatch
Selecting "Business" but only having tourist documents = rejection. "Tourist" always safer.
Wrong tier for timeline
Selected "Standard" 3-5 days but travel in 2 days = rejection-by-timeline. We auto-suggest based on entry date.
Typo in passport number
Off-by-one digit invalidates the visa entirely. Letters O vs 0 · I vs 1 · 5 vs S. We double-check against passport photo.
Vietnamese Embassy & Consulates in Canada
Generally NOT needed for tourist e-visa filing · listed here for business visas · longer stays · document authentication.
Embassy of Vietnam · Ottawa
Vietnam Consulate · Vancouver
Linh Tran · Lead Visa Specialist
"Canadians are easy filings · 99.3% approval. Main thing: bring passport BOOK not the photo card. Stripe CAD payment processes same-day. For French-Quebec passports · double-check name format matches airline booking exactly."
