I am applying for the Dtv in Ho Chi Minh, but my friend is letting me stay at his apartment while he is away in the US and i‘m paying him directly.

Do i Need to book a hotel to show physical proof i’m in vietnam or can i explain my unique situation?

If i need to book a hotel, how many days does it need to be booked?

Either way is fine but i need to be prepared

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is applying for a DTV visa in Vietnam and is staying at a friend's apartment instead of a hotel. They are inquiring whether they need to book a hotel for proof of residence or if they can explain their situation using their friend's address. Comments indicate that an entry stamp in the passport or a signed letter from the friend can suffice as proof. Additionally, booking a hotel with free cancellation as a temporary measure is suggested.

Do you have an entry stamp in your passport? If so, that would work.
