While there are advantages and disadvantages associated with each of these, we recommend the Visa on Arrival as the best option for the purposes of Japanese tourist, business and work considering a trip to Vietnam.
Option 1: Via Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate
Japanese citizens can apply Vietnam Tourist Visa either in person or by mail. To do this, you need to fill out and sign an application form, sending it along with your passport and a passport photo.
The advantage of applying this way is that you already have the visa stamped in your passport before leaving for Vietnam, which means you do not need to queue on arrival for your passport to get stamped.
If you live far away from Osaka or Tokyo, this way can be not convenient for you. Now let’s move to next option that is recommended for Japanese tourists and businessmen.
Option 2: Visa on Arrival at any Vietnam’s international airports
Visa on arrival is another way for Japanese citizens to get Vietnam Tourist Visa. It is a favorable choice for Japanese citizens who come to Vietnam for travel purposes.

With Visa on Arrival, you can apply for longer-term and multiple-entry visas, and you do not need to go in person to the Embassy, or apply by post.
