Question for anyone who has got a tourist visa in HCMC before... I see it costs $40, I'm wondering do I pay that when I apply on day one, or when I pickup on day two?
TLDR : Answer Summary
In Ho Chi Minh City, you typically pay the visa fee of $40 when you submit your application on the first day, not when you pick it up the next day. It is advised to pay in US dollars and ensure that the bills are in excellent condition as the fee is non-refundable if the application is denied.
