I saw a post recently stating that you could apply for a METV in Vietnam even if you are not a citizen or permanent resident of Vietnam. 

I am a UK citizen and I was always told you had to be in the UK to apply for that so was wondering if anyone was successful in getting the METV in Vietnam?

PS I sent an email to both embassies in Vietnam and none of them have responded!

Summary so far

The post inquires about the possibility of a UK citizen applying for a Multi-Entry Tourist Visa (METV) while in Vietnam, noting previous beliefs that applications had to be made from the UK. The author expresses frustration over not receiving responses from the relevant embassies in Vietnam.
