How long does it take for Canadians to get DTV approval while in Asia, and should you use an agent or do it yourself?
Any Canadians apply for the DTV while in Asia? How long did it take to approve + did you use an agent or do it yourself?
Answer summary
The approval time for the DTV visa for Canadians varies based on the embassy and location. Some users report quick approvals, such as same-day processing in Taiwan or under a week in Hanoi. Many recommend handling the application yourself, especially if you have all required documents. However, for those who lack time or financial proof, using an agent may be advisable.

It depends on what kind of DTV you apply
Each kind requires different papers. U should do your research in this group you will be fine if you have all it takes
But if you don’t have time or you can not prove your finance you should definitely use an agent.

Applied last Aug so probably doesn’t apply but got it same day in Taiwan. Did it ourselves.

I am Canadian, applied through Hanoi, approval was about a week, but it was in November, not recently. No issues, a couple requests for additional documents. Very seamless, easy to do yourself.

Depends which embassy you apply via, based on where you travel. Each one has a different time length

Do it yourself.
Search the group for the specific Embassy you will apply at, but best to do it in your homecountry, better chances to get documentation approved, since they know how documents from homecountry look.
