Sooo I picked up a multiple re-entry 3 month visa, but I checked online and it says that it requires a sponsor's letter.

I don't have a sponsor nor did the Vietnamese Embassy in Tokyo ask me anything about it.

That all said:

A) Can anyone sponsor me like NOW?

B) Will I be turned away if I can't produce one?

C) Holy cow I'm scared.

From Australia, I had my B3 attached to my passport. Nothing about a sponsor letter ... But your coming from Japan, could be different???

Update: I am now in a hostel in Saigon. Border official asked me no questions and hell even customs let me through without but the most cursory scanning.
