Anyone used www.myvietnamvisa.com?
Going to Vietnam March 1. Trying to decide whether to go the normal Visa route through the Vietnam embassy ($100) or use www.myvietnamvisa.com, which promises a visa-on-arrival for $65.
Obviously would prefer the cheaper option, but slightly hesitant to take the risk. Curious if anyone else has done it. Thanks!

I used http://www.vietnamvisapro.net back in October (my original visa/passport got stolen right before I left) for a rush job for $30-40. They did an awesome job.

Bear in mind you'll have to pay a further $25 for visa on arrival if you have the approval letter.

Does anyone know if a US citizen can apply for a Vietnamese tourist visa at a Vietnamese embassy in a foreign country? Or do you have to be in your home country to apply in person? I will be in Madrid for a week and am hoping to apply for it in person while there. I am arriving on a cruise, and just noticed that this website does not provide letters for those arriving via boat.
