What photo match rate is acceptable when applying for an eVisa?

The Vietnam eVisa system uses automatic facial recognition technology, and it can be quite strict.

Reasons for a low photo match rate:

The portrait photo is blurry, or the passport photo page is blurry.

The passport was issued many years ago, so the applicant’s facial features may have changed over time (this is common in children).

A match rate of over 60% is generally acceptable, so there is no need to worry. Please refer to the eVisa application guide here:

This is the eVisa result when the photo match rate is 58.43%.
