Hi,

I went to MTT today and got a considering stamp. They asked me to come back on 20, October but the problem is when I tried to book a queue for the appointment that day on immigration website, the system denied it because of that will be a holiday. But in calendar shows no holiday at all, neither Saturday or Sunday. So I'm confused. Can I have any advice for this problem?

Thank you so much.

P/s: I had a copy of letter from my Embassy (Vietnam) but they denied, they asked the ORIGINAL one, not the one ny Embassy sent to my mailbox and printed by myself. I don't know why but that's a must.

you do not need an appointment to go back to get the under consideration stamp changed to an extension stamp

BUT if you wanted to make one you have to wait because there are no appointments available after this week. They haven't opened up the booking system yet for next week

No, they didn't ask my house contract even I gave them that. In my case, don't need but they ask me my Room number details. So you should have document on hands just in case.

Maybe I'm smoking crack but are they requiring appointments for the 2nd of 2 visits for the 30 day extension due to embassy letter? I thought the immigration official told me no need for appointment

You are correct...

October 20 is not a holiday.

Try again soon to book an appointment at MTT

For day before or on October 20.
