Main consular services
For Vietnamese citizens living, studying or working in Iran, the missions typically handle:
- Passports and emergency travel documents.
- Birth, marriage and death registration.
- Nationality matters.
- Consular legalisation and attestation.
- Citizen protection in emergencies.
For foreigners, the missions issue visas for Vietnam. In practice most travellers now apply for an e-visa online on the official portal evisa.gov.vn without visiting an embassy. Visas stamped at a mission are mainly for diplomatic or official passports, or for applicants who already hold an approval letter from the Vietnam Immigration Department.
Do Iranian citizens need a visa for Vietnam?
Yes. Iranian citizens are not visa-exempt, so they need an e-visa (up to 90 days; USD 25 single entry or USD 50 multiple entry), applied for on the official portal evisa.gov.vn, or a visa based on an approval letter for business or work. Applications from some nationalities may be reviewed more closely; if an e-visa is delayed or refused, see our visa advice for difficult nationalities. An overview by country is on the Vietnam visa by nationality page.
Legalising documents from Iran for use in Vietnam
Iran is not a party to the Apostille Convention (which has applied to Vietnam since 11 September 2026), so documents issued in Iran still need consular legalisation before Vietnamese authorities will accept them (unless an international agreement exempts them – check with the receiving authority). For example:
- Degrees and experience letters for a work permit.
- Criminal record certificates.
- Birth, single-status and marriage certificates.
The usual route: the document is certified by the competent authority in Iran, then legalised at the Vietnamese Embassy there; once in Vietnam it is translated into Vietnamese and notarised. Info Travel offers consular legalisation, notarised translation and complete work permit files in Vietnam.

FAQ
What are the opening hours of the Vietnamese Embassy in Iran?
The Ministry’s list does not state opening hours; check the official website in the table.
Do I need an appointment?
It depends on the mission and the procedure. The safest approach is to call or email first to confirm the required documents and when to submit them.
Should I apply for a visa at the embassy or get an e-visa?
For tourism, short business trips or family visits, an e-visa is the quickest and simplest option because everything is done online. Go to the mission only if you hold a diplomatic or official passport, or your approval letter names that mission as the visa pick-up point.
