Yes, you can.
It does not matter when you change the airport to pick up visa. You can pick it up at 3 international airports such as Hanoi, Danang and Hochiminh.
We would like to recommend that you should get the visa on arrival first and then book your flight. Certainly, the date of arrival must be ensured before applying for the visa.
It is fine to entry Vietnam with business visa while your real purpose is for travelling.
No, it is Share visa approval letter which often is issued at high season. All of these people applied Vietnam Visa at the same time with you, therefore Immigration Department sent these Visas with you at the same paper and the same time for saving time.
There are many names of customers on only one document which is called share visa. It often is sent to foreigners when they apply for Vietnam visa in same time in high season. In contrast, private visa just only show your name (and your partners) and also this must be more expensive than share visa.
For entry Vietnam, both of private and share visa are accepted. If you do not mind having the visa approval letter which not only shows your name but also the strangers’ information, you can choose share visa. If you would like to keep your personal information in secrete, you should choose private visa so that your visa approval just includes your information.
