TLDR : Answer Summary

The applicant is inquiring whether supporting documents for a visa need to be in JPG format, specifically the biodata page and photograph, or if PDF format is acceptable. Additionally, they are asking if they can complete their visa application in Hanoi after landing in Ho Chi Minh City. The response confirms that they can apply in Hanoi and should submit their hotel booking there.

just be sure to submit the PROOF of your being in Hanoi when you submit your application for the DTV visa. Dated hotel receipt, picture of you with dated newspaper ETC. May be asked for a copy of each of your passport pages. Others have been asked.

It is ok to travel to other areas once applied in Hanoi. If called for an interview he would have to go back to Hanoi. You have covered what is required.

You can choose to do it in Hanoi if you land in HCMC. Submit your Hanoi hotel booking with your application.

They probably need to be compressed so converting to jpg is usually better as JPEG files are smaller than PDF.

You can send them an email in advance to let them know about the difference between your passport name and bank statement name. You can also include a note in your application explaining the difference.
