Photo for the Vietnam e-Visa
The Vietnam e-Visa is requested on the official portal evisa.gov.vn, and the photo must be 4 × 6 cm, with a white background, facing the camera and without glasses. Here it comes out at 400 × 600 px in a small JPG the portal accepts.
Drag the photo and zoom: the top of the head goes on the upper line, the chin on the lower one and the face inside the oval.
