Just wanted to say thank you.

I just got my DTV today via HCMC (Vietnam)

I have applied Sunday near 6 pm

Tuesday got a document request for a translation of some document (had my original work contract in Romanian).

Went into pending approval 30min after sending the translation.

Friday at 6pm got a document request of all page of my passport.

And that morning I got the approved visa.

Took 6 business days, pretty fast.

Nice. So you applied in Saigon and other things you done online? No need to stay all this time in Saigon and go to embacy physically? :)

And when they at the end ask for all pages of the passport it really is better you are still in the country where you apply.

nothing notarized, i am the owner of the company (did not stipulate it), just made a contract using the official model of Romania labor ministry and translated it using google translate, I also made a statement from my company to me that I am allowed to work remotely.

@Raphael *******
in the contract, have you mentioned, that you are director of the company? I have the same situation, but I don’t have any contract, since the company is mine, i don’t really need one
