You can apply online for an e-visa through an authorized visa service provider. To avoid last-minute stress, it’s best to apply several weeks before your travel date. The Weather The weather is quite unpredictable from one part of the country to another. It has three distinct climates—the northern zone, the central zone, and the southern zone—making it challenging for travelers to plan the perfect time that works best for the whole country. It is quite cold in the north during December through February, while the south remains warm and dry. Visitors should avoid specific regions from August to November because there is heavy flooding in the area. From May through October, the weather is hot and humid in the north and in the south. Generally, the best time to visit Vietnam in terms of weather is during the spring.
