Tourist visas are generally valid for 30 days and can be extended depending on the policy in operation at the time, or convert to business visas etc at a price. Business visas are necessary if you intend to conduct any business at all, and are generally valid for three to six months. You can extend your visa (available at travel agency) for a maximum 3 times and then you have to apply for a new one. If you are exempt from visa, try to plan your itinerary within this period if you do not want to pay high fee to get a visa once you are in Vietnam. You can either apply for a Vietnam visa at a Vietnamese Embassy, Vietnamese Consulate General in your home or traveling country with the cost around 55-85USD.
