This involves leaving Vietnam (usually a quick flight to Bangkok or a bus to Cambodia\/Laos), applying for a <em>new<\/em> 90-day e-visa while you&#8217;re outside the country, and then re-entering a few days later. It&#8217;s a well-trodden path for long-term travellers.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li><strong>In-Country Agents:<\/strong> some travel agencies in major cities can facilitate extensions through complex procedures, but this is often expensive and takes time.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Golden Rule:<\/strong> If you want to stay longer, the easiest way is to do a &#8220;visa run&#8221;.
