OPIt doesn't , Ive never applied for one, that's why I'm asking if the border you cross is referenced when applying , and if you aren't where you crossed applying does it matter. I know it sounds dumb, but there's plenty of things on these forms that don't make much sense,. At 400$ us I want it to work the first time I apply.

I don't understand what you're certificate has to do with getting into Vietnam..
It's completely dependent on the passport you have and most passport countries require a visa before entry..
UK passport and a couple of others can get visa on arrival

Better to apply to Hanoi as long as in Vietnam ... Most people saying it's easier and only 4-7 days. Ho chi Minh not getting the same reviews

Just make sure you have the appropriate visa if your nationality needs one for Vietnam. And take into account the price of a Cambodian visa as well.

It does not matter if you go via a land border and apply.
