Looks like restrictions for Haitian citizens are tougher. Not sure how to add this without a reference. Guaka (talk) 15:42, 6 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Afghan Visa for Vietnam and Egypt[edit]

Afghans can get a visa for Vietnam through https://www.vietnam-evisa.org/apply-visa.html. They apply online and then must email their proof of hotel and plane tickets. They receive an immigration letter which is then turned in at the airport along with a passport photo and get a visa on arrival. I recently just did this with an Afghan passport and have the approved visa letter.

Dear Sir/Madam,

With Afghanistan passport holder, you need have visa to arrive Vietnam.

You can apply with us in the link: http://www.vietnam-evisa.org/apply-visa.html. (for tourist visa only) After receiving your payment, we will process and send to you the approval letter via your email.

By the way, please send us your passport scan, flight ticket and hotel booking to email : visa@vietnam-evisa.org also. We need this information to process visa for you. We will not process visa for you until we have to documents.

Time processing will take from 5 to 7 days. (except on holidays or weekend), then just need print the letter out and use it to get visa stamp directly at Vietnam airport.

Service fee = 150 USD/1 person (not including 25 USD stamping fee upon arrival)

Hello Ms. Marissa,

Unfortunately, there are no tourist visas for Afghan citizens. There should be an invitation of any event from Egypt for the applicant with further following documents in hand for visa process:

A Supporting Letter from an Office in Afghanistan

Copy of Passport

Copy of National ID (Tazkira)

Visa Application Form (Attached)

3 Photos Size (4x6)

After submitting his documents to the Embassy, will be delivered to Egypt in order to get security clearance which at least will take 3-4 weeks.

Regards

Attaullah Waseeq

Hi. Thanks for this. The problem is it is not in line with WP:VERIFY as it is a private email conversation and not the information that was verifiably published somewhere. Nevertheless I will comment. The first email is from a private agency facilitating the visa collection on arrival to Vietnam. It's not a straightforward visa on arrival because it has to be issued before arrival, only the actual visa is picked up at the airport and not in the embassy. As for Egypt, the information is the same as the one we have in the article.--Twofortnights (talk) 07:44, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
