You can't renew your visa "on a daily basis".

Unless you are from a few countries you have to buy your visa BEFORE entering VietNam EXCEPT where you pre-arrange a visa on arrival.

The shortest visa is 15 days.

HOWEVER, if you are in transit your airline might get you in without a visa.

The visa situation here in VietNam is somewhat fluid as new policies are introduced quite often - except the need for a visa!

Addition:
You can EXTEND your visa once in VietNam.

thanks for the info
i think i might have worded 'daily basis wrong'.
i meant daily basis once i have arrived in vietnam,so you have cleared that up for me.
many thanks again
