Yes. Like adults, children need their own photos to get a visa for Vietnam. It can be a bit trickier photographing kids, especially newborns, infants, and babies which’s why we have some recommendations for you:

Keep toys, pacifiers, bottles, and other objects out of the picture.
Place a white sheet behind the baby if laying him down or sitting in a chair. By this way, the background is solid white and mothering is visible.
Do your best to square up the face of the baby and snap the picture with his eyes open.
In case you do not have time to prepare 2 photos in advance, you can get them directly at the photo store of Vietnam airport. It costs around US $2.
