Understanding the cost of your travel documents is essential for budget planning and avoiding unexpected delays at the airport. In 2026, Vietnam’s fee structure is divided between Standard Government Fees (paid to the Immigration Department) and Expedited Service Fees for urgent processing.
Under the guidance of Stanley Ho, CEO of Visaonlinevietnam (Transocean), we maintain full transparency regarding all consular charges for travelers departing from Istanbul, Ankara, and beyond.

1. Official 2026 E-Visa Government Fees
The 90-day E-visa is the most common entry permit for Turkish citizens and residents. The government fee is non-refundable, regardless of whether your visa is approved or denied.
| Visa Type | Entry Mode | Government Fee (USD) |
| 90-Day E-Visa | Single Entry | $25.00 |
| 90-Day E-Visa | Multiple Entry | $50.00 |
-
Payment Method: For standard applications via the government portal, these are paid via international credit/debit cards.
-
Common Issue: Many Turkish bank cards are blocked by the government’s payment gateway. Our platform provides a local payment solution to bypass these failures.
2. Service Fees for Expedited & Emergency Processing
If your flight departs in less than 72 hours, the standard processing window is too risky. Our service fees cover the costs of priority handling, 24/7 monitoring, and 100% Boarding Guarantees.
| Service Level | Processing Time | Recommended For |
| Standard | 3–5 Working Days | Planning ahead (2+ weeks). |
| Urgent | 4–8 Working Hours | Flying tomorrow. |
| Emergency | 1 Hour | Stuck at Istanbul Airport (IST). |
| Weekend/Holiday | Same Day | Sat/Sun or Tet Holiday departures. |

3. Consular Charges for Business (DN) & Legalization
For Turkish investors and companies in Ankara or Izmir, additional charges apply for high-level documentation:
-
Business Sponsorship (NA2): Handling fees for company-sponsored 3-month to 1-year visas.
-
Document Legalization: Fees for stamping commercial invoices or personal documents at the Embassy in Ankara.
-
Stamping Fee: For specific visa types (excluding E-visa), a stamping fee of $25.00 (Cash) is required at the arrival airport in Vietnam.
4. Why the Price May Vary (The “Stanley Ho” Transparency Policy)
“In 2026, the cheapest option is often the most expensive in the long run,” says Stanley Ho. “Travelers using the $25 government portal often find their applications ‘Pending’ due to photo errors. When you pay a service fee to Transocean, you are paying for an ‘Insurance Policy’ that ensures you won’t lose your $1,200 flight ticket from Istanbul due to a $25 technicality.”
5. Emergency Support for Payment Failures
If you are at the airport and your payment was rejected on the official site, do not wait.
-
Instant Recovery: We can take over your pending application and pay the fees through our internal government API.
-
1-Hour Delivery: Even if you have already paid the $25 elsewhere, we can expedite the approval in 60 minutes to save your trip.
