Submitting Additional Documents

On this page:


Overview

 

The U.S. Embassy or Consulate may return your visa renewal application to the address you registered on ustraveldocs.com with a letter directing you to submit additional documents or information.

All documents and information requested in the letter should be submitted at the nearest Vietnam Post office within one year from the date you received the letter. Failure to submit the required information within one year will result in refusal of your visa application. If that happens, you will be required to submit a new visa application and pay all associated fees in order to restart the visa application process.
