Get Vietnam visa to cross Ho Chi Minh from Siem Reap by bus.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I have a couple of questions which I would appreciate if you could answer them.
I am planning to cross Ho Chi Minh from Siem Reap by bus, could you explain to me the visa procedures? I am a Mauritian holding a Mauritius Passport. I phoned the Vietnam Embassy in Kuala Lumpur and they say it cost rm400, is there any other way for me to get my visa?

Thank you for your help.

In Transit visa , Asked by Sophie Ng,

hi, n nFrom my understand it appears I have to visit nearest Vietnamese Consulate to Siem Reap to get a visa if I plan on going to Ho Chi Minh City by bus. n nCan I visit your embassy and apply and get approved visa and then return to Siem Reap same day?n nI am a Canadian citizen who is retired 65 yr of age, and retired to Thailand for 7 years, and now have been in Siem Reap for about 5 years and looking at moving to Vietnam hopefully to stay for a few years there also. n nCan you advise me on procedure and timetable for my applying for Vietnamese visa.. 3 month single entry and cost. n nThere appear to be travel agencies here in Siem Reap who can help me get a Vietnamese visa but it appears I would have to travel by air and if I intend to travel by bus then I would have to get Visa from Consulate directly. n nI have desktop computer, large monitor, speakers and clothing and difficult to take all of these items on plane.n nI have recently applied for new Canadian passport as old one was about to expire and have approved 10 year Canadian passport. n n nregards,nGeorge Dowhan

This is to inform that since you travel to Vietnam by bus, you must go to the nearest Embassy/Consulate of Vietnam to apply visa to Vietnam in person. Please note that the visa procedure and fee vary from one embassy to another. Please contact the Embassy or Consulate of Vietnam where you wish to apply visa for further support.
