Hi All,
I have just married a Vietnamese woman and would like to find out how I can get a 5 year Visa as we both would like to live in Vietnam.
I am retired and have my own funds available so there is no problem about money, we are looking to buy a house.
Your help would be so appreciated.

Hi guys!
There is no 5 years Visa
It's called Visa Exemption Certificate (VEC) which allows certain category of people to apply for the same up to a 5 year of maximum period depends on your passport validity. The holder of this VEC should extend it each 3 months or move from the country. The extension fee is $10.
