FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Is Gateway Visa a government agency?
No. We are a private company providing advice and procedural support. The decision to issue any document rests with the competent Vietnamese authorities.
Can I do this myself? Why use a service?
You certainly can. A service saves time, avoids mistakes that get applications returned, and gives you someone to handle problems when they come up.
Do you guarantee approval?
No one can guarantee a decision on behalf of the authorities. We assess your chances before taking a case and tell you plainly about any risks.
Can I use your service from abroad?
Yes. Most of the work is done by email and courier.
What do the costs include?
Government fees, our service fee, and third-party costs where they apply (translation, legalisation, health check, courier). Each is listed separately in your quote.
