- esperent 6y agoYou need $130,000 for a 12 month investor visa. I think I'll stick with paying $90 a month, thanks. For an education visa you need to be registered with a university. This being Vietnam, I'm sure there's someone you can pay to make that happen, but I've never heard of someone who's not a genuine student doing that. Most common beside tourist visas is a business visa, but in case you're thinking of buying a fake one, agents do check nearly everyone at some point and you can get fined and blacklisted. Also you technically have to leave the country to change visa type (although maybe they've waived that at the moment).
- _-___________-_ 6y agoInvestor visa cap depends on the locality you invest in. It can be done for $4k, and if it’s your own company you invest in, it’s not really an expense. Education visa is available for enrolling in a part-time VN language course, which if you want to live here is not a terrible idea anyway. You do not need to leave the country to change visa type, nor did you need to before the pandemic. This kind of thing is why getting good advice is important.
