U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents can submit their applications through our Houston office. Non-U.S. citizens residing in the USA must provide proof of legal U.S. status (such as a notarized copy of a Green Card, valid U.S. visa, or I-94 document).

Key factors for fast approval

Avoid common application delays by ensuring your submission meets consular specifications:

  • Photo & Scan Quality — Scans of your passport information page and 2×2 photos must be crisp, unedited, taken against a plain white background within the last 6 months, and free of pixelation.
  • Business Documentation — Business filings require a formal Letter of Guarantee on company letterhead addressed to “Consulate of Vietnam / Houston TX”, along with the official Vietnamese host invitation letter.
  • Submission Method — Most U.S. tourist and business filings are processed electronically (E-Visa scan submission). Please call our office before shipping your physical passport.
  • Processing Speeds — Select from Regular, Rush (3–5 days), or Emergency (2–3 days) speed based on your departure schedule.
