Da Nang Immigration Office: Address, Hours, Which to Use

The office is at 78 Le Loi Street, Hai Chau, Da Nang, open Monday to Saturday, 7:30–11:30 AM and 1:30–5:30 PM, and closed on Sunday. Stay-extension files are received Monday to Friday, and on Saturdays only in the morning, not on Tet or public holidays. Your sponsor, not you, files the extension. The Tam Ky office is closed.

Which situation applies to you?

• If you have a sponsor (an organisation already registered with the immigration office, or a close Vietnamese relative) → the sponsor files your extension at 78 Le Loi Street or online, for a fee of 10 USD. Processing takes no more than 5 working days from a complete file. The form and document list are in extending a stay in Da Nang.
• If you have no sponsor → you cannot file the extension yourself. The alternative is to leave and enter again on a new visa: see visa run from Da Nang or the Vietnam e-visa.
• If you plan to go to the office on a Saturday → go in the morning, because on Saturday extension files are received in the morning only. Results are handed back Monday to Friday only, excluding Tet and public holidays. Bring the appointment slip to collect the result.
• If you live in Hoi An → the Immigration Unit for Northern Quang Nam is at 483 Hai Ba Trung Street, but it has no published hours or phone. The main office at 78 Le Loi Street is the one with published hours.
• If you were heading to the Tam Ky office → do not go, because it is permanently closed.

Still open: whether phone lines 0694.260193 and 0918.529.007 still connect to this office, whether the Hoi An unit accepts extension files, and the maximum length of one extension. The Da Nang office, 78 Le Loi Street, is the place to ask.

The main office for the merged city

The main immigration office for Da Nang city is the Immigration Management Division, Da Nang City Police (Phòng Quản lý Xuất nhập cảnh). If a driver does not recognise the English name, show the Vietnamese name or “78 Lê Lợi”, or type it into the Grab or Xanh SM app.

Resolution 202/2025/QH15 merged Da Nang city and Quang Nam province, Hoi An included, into one city named Da Nang; the National Assembly passed it on 12 June 2025 and it took effect that day. The merged city’s government was to start operating on 1 July 2025, and news coverage from June 2025 said the merged Da Nang City Police was expected to operate from that date.

Two addresses that used to belong to the former Quang Nam provincial police, in Hoi An and Tam Ky, have had very different outcomes since the merger, covered further down.

The address: 78 Le Loi Street, not “Thach Thang Ward”

The office is at 78 Le Loi Street, Hai Chau, Da Nang 550000. Keep the Google Plus Code 36G9+XQ Hai Chau, Da Nang handy in case your map app does not resolve the street name.

Some English-language guides still write the address with old units, such as “78 Le Loi street, Hai Chau district”, and “Thach Thang Ward” no longer exists. Resolution 1659/NQ-UBTVQH15, passed by the National Assembly Standing Committee on 16 June 2025, merged Thanh Binh, Thuan Phuoc, Thach Thang, Phuoc Ninh and the old Hai Chau into one new ward, also called Hai Chau. Write the address without Thach Thang.

Opening hours, and the 2015 page older guides copy

The office is open Monday to Saturday, 7:30–11:30 AM and 1:30–5:30 PM, and closed on Sunday; the hours were last confirmed by phone call roughly 11 weeks before 26 September 2026.

Filing a stay extension is narrower. Files are received every week from Monday to Friday, and on Saturdays only in the morning, excluding Tet and public holidays. So don’t plan to file on a Saturday afternoon or on a public holiday.

Some older guides still print morning hours of 08:00–11:30, Monday to Friday. They trace back to a 2015 Da Nang tourism listing of roughly 8:00–11:30 AM and 1:30–4:30 PM, plus Saturday mornings, with a phone number in the long-retired area code “0511”. Use the current hours above.

The office’s old website address, danang.xuatnhapcanh.gov.vn, is dead. That subdomain no longer hosts anything of the office’s own and now redirects permanently to tbltkbtt.bocongan.gov.vn, a national portal where foreigners declare temporary residence and Vietnamese citizens notify stays, not a page about this office.

Hoi An and Tam Ky: what’s actually still there

Before the 2025 merger, the former Quang Nam provincial police ran two more locations that some guides still list alongside Da Nang.

Hoi An still has a Google Maps listing at 483 Hai Ba Trung Street, Hoi An Tay Ward, now named the Immigration Unit for Northern Quang Nam (Tổ quản lý xuất nhập cảnh - Bắc Quảng Nam). It has no published hours or phone number, and in 2023 the pre-merger office there used 0235.3910093.

Tam Ky is different: the former office at 56 Huynh Thuc Khang Street is permanently closed, which fits the police merger covered in the news coverage above, so do not go there.

Your sponsor files, in person or online

The office handles stay extension, procedure 1.001146 on the Ministry of Public Security’s national portal. Under Law 47/2014/QH13, Article 35(1), the request must be filed by the organisation or individual that invited or sponsored you, not by you. Your sponsor files in person or online, for a 10 USD fee. Post alone is not a way to file: it carries your original passport for an online file.

If your sponsor files online, an online file still needs your original passport sent to the office by public postal service. Extra papers are also sent by post when the office asks for them. An organisation must already be registered with the immigration office. A Vietnamese citizen sponsoring you must be your grandparent, parent, spouse, child or sibling, and must show papers proving the relationship.

Processing takes no more than 5 working days from the date the complete application is received. If the file goes in online, the result can come back by post on request, with the courier fee paid by the applicant.

The phone numbers

The numbers 0694.260193 and 0918.529.007 were published for this office on 11 July 2023, before the 2025 provincial merger and the police reorganisation that followed. The office has no phone number on Google today, so go in person.

The hotline 02438257941 is the national e-visa portal’s line, not this office’s.
