Hi everyone! 😊 I was wondering if anyone here has already applied for the digital nomad visa in Vietnam, specifically in Hanoi. I’m planning to apply there soon and would really appreciate any information or tips you could share.

Thanks a lot, and have a wonderful day!

Hello everyone,

I want to apply for a DTV visa for Thailand, but I have a few questions.

My current residence is in Canada, but my available funds and bank account are in France, the country where I was born. I’m wondering if having my bank account in a different country from my residence could cause any issues with my application.

If I go to Vietnam and apply from there using my French passport and my bank in France, do you think that could work better?

When I was living in Canada, I had to renew my French passport at the French Consulate in Vancouver in Canada. On my passport, my residence is listed as my Canadian address. Could this be a problem ? Thank you for your advice!

I applied for DTV on 29th October in Sai gon and got additional documents requested on 30th, which I send back on super early morning of 31st Oct, around 4 am.

I want to know how many more days is it gonna take? Is it a good sign or bad sign that I am not hearing anything back from them? I applied under remote employee category.

Update: I just got pending approval today, is it a good thing?

Canadian passport, considering applying for soft powerfrom Vietnam (so I can scope out gyms before choosing which one) as the Ottawa embassy is experiencing a large backlog.

I read a few months ago that the 500k proof needed to be "stamped by the bank" but when I did a "test" application, the site didn't specifically ask for it to be anything more than statements.

So I'm asking for clarification, can I just (CONDENSED ALL INTO ONE) the pdfs of the last 3 months of bank statements, proving the funds? Or do I need to get an official letter from the bank?

I have appreciated all the info the group has provided.

I'm applying from Vietnam soon. I work teaching English for Italki HK Limited. I'm not an employee but considered a freelance worker. When they ask for: Professional portfolio showcasing digital nomad, remote worker, foreign talent or freelancer status, what exactly does that entail? Would screenshots of my profile page showing the number of students and lessons, my picture, my teaching style and methods be enough? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
