1. What is working time and non - working time?
No one can work 24 hours/day, and so does the Immigration of Vietnam. The Department of Vietnam Immigration work from 9A.M to 4P.M Vietnam time (GMT+7) from Monday to Friday, except for Vietnam public holidays and the timing is called WORKING TIME.
So, the timing from after 4P.M to before 9A.M the next day and in public holidays is NON-WORKING time. However, the Immigration always arrange one or some officers to working in these NON-WORKING hours in case of emergency, which could be considered as OVERTIME working, so the fee to get the visa request approved by them in the meantime is higher, just as the way OVERTIME workers are paid.
The visa fee depend on the chosen processing time and the purpose of applicants when apply visa on arrival.
