To obtain a Vietnam visa, in addition to the visa approval price, citizens of New Zealand are required to pay a stamping fee to have the Vietnam visa stamped onto their passport. For travelers obtaining a Vietnam visa on arrival, the stamping fee must be paid in cash to the Vietnam Immigration officers at the Vietnam airport. In this scenario, the stamping fee is consistent for foreigners from all countries. It amounts to USD 45 per person for a single entry visa (valid for 1 month or 3 months), USD 65 per person for a multiple entry visa of no more than 29 days, and USD 95 per person for a multiple entry visa of more than 29 days but less than 90 days.

Should individuals from New Zealand wish to acquire a Vietnam visa at the Vietnam Embassy, both the visa approval price and stamping fee will need to be paid to the staff in charge there. However, these fees vary depending on the specific embassy and country. Typically, the visa price is around USD 90 per person, and it takes approximately 5 working days for the visa to be processed and issued.
