TLDR : Answer Summary
The processing time for a DTV visa application in Hanoi varies among applicants. Reports indicate that it can take anywhere from 3 to 5 working days, even if additional documentation is requested. Some applicants received their approvals in as little as 4 days, while a few encountered delays, particularly if more documents were needed.

I put mine in on the morning of the 6th July and received approval later in the afternoon on the 11th July. No requests for any additional documents.
