If you plan to stay Vietnam longer than a month, please either go to your nearest Vietnamese consulate or through the Internet (you will have to retrieve it on your arrival) at following websites:

-
you may apply for a tourist visa through the Internet
- Visa on Arrival (1) www.getvisavietnam.com/

This internet visa procedure is cheaper but it does take some time (~ 60 min) at the airport immigration office, depending on the queue. Do not forget to have with you 2 passport photos and USD in cash as required by the internet visa service.
Travel
There are two main international airports in Vietnam : Hanoi (Noi Bai airport : HAN) and Ho Chi Minh (Tan Son Nhut airport : SGN).
As there are more flights from Ho Chi Minh to Quy nhon, it is more convenient to fly from foreign countries to Ho Chi Minh than to Hanoi.
Below is an indicative flight schedule. Please check before reservation.
Note: it is not uncommon that airlines change the flight schedule (even by more than 2h) a few weeks before departure. You should plan your trip accordingly.
