Hi guys, plan to apply for the dtv in vietnam. Can anyone who has applied in Vietnam or other embassies advise on how long after your application is made you should have you flight to Thailand booked? I’m not sure if there is any specific requirements on this.

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) in Vietnam, it is recommended to book your flight to Thailand within 90 days of receiving the visa approval. Consulates, especially those in border countries, may not require a flight itinerary during your application process. Ensure you check the processing times specific to the consulate you are applying to, like HCMC or Hanoi, and remember to book an online appointment to streamline your application.

As a rule the consulates want you to enter thailand within 90 days of getting the DTV issued. The nearby consulates know you're coming right back to thailand once you get the visa, and some don't even ask for a flight to thailand when you apply (especially the border country consulates)

Make sure you read the processing time at the consulate you're applying at (HCMC or Hanoi)

AND

make sure you book an appt online to get in the gate to apply

thank you mate, is the application form something you fill out while you’re there or filled in prior to attending the appointment?
