how many days did you need to stay in Ho Chi Min for that?
Eric de Leseleuc I didn't. I'm in Hoi An which comes under Ho Chi Minh Embassy. Just applied online. They needed some secondary stuff like a selfie showing I was in Vietnam, I just took one in front of a street sign and an itinerary stating my reason for a 60 day visa. No other hotel bookings, just my first week.
Applied on Monday, was asked for the extra stuff on Wednesday and it was agreed yesterday. So only took 4 days from applying to being approved.
Eric de Leseleuc yeah I was really impressed with them. Just a quick tip. They also asked for me to re-submit my financial evidence. My first submission was 3 months statements covering June - end of August. All I did was generate a new one in my banking app up to the same date I re-submitted the PDF's. That obviously seemed to be what they wanted as it went through no problem.
