Do I need to visit the Thai Embassy in Ho Chi Minh after applying for a DTV visa online from Vietnam?

Don’t be afraid of all the scared people here, actually no one gets asked for an interview…. You don’t need to go to the embassy in person …

We applied for the DTV in Vietnam and it was all online. They may request for you to come but I have not heard of that happening. No matter what you turn in on the initial application they seem to always request more. I tried turning in extra to start with and they ended up still requesting for it.

Don’t try to leave the country during the process, they will likely cancel your application and you will lose 10,000 THB

You are unlikely to get called for an interview unless they want to carry out further checks etc. They do call anyone for an interview that they suspect is not in the country at the time of applying. Play by the rules, chill wait 5-10 days excl. Thai public holidays which could cause delays. HCMC is a great place to apply, the City is great, excellent prices for boutique hotels, restaurants and transportation by say Grab is so cheap GL

It's in English.

Received DTV in Hanoi last week (🇸🇪&🇵🇭). Entered 🇹🇭 yday with no questions asked. Filed online and received .

Everything will be done online. You don’t have to go to the embassy to submit the documents physically.

You can eventually be called for an interview; that's still random in there. However, you have to be and stay in Vietnam at the time you're sending your application.

They can call you for an interview if they want !. No one knows

Only if they call you in for an interview, do you need to go to the consulate
