How long is the approval process for the DTV (softpower) visa at the Thai embassy in Hanoi?
Hi everyone, I applied for DTV (softpower) in Hanoi on October 6th. It's been in processing since October 9th. Awaiting approval. Is anyone in the same situation as me? In Hanoi, of course. Thanks.
UPDATE approved now🥳😍♥️🇹🇭

Answer summary
The original poster inquired about their experience waiting for a DTV (softpower) visa approval in Hanoi, having applied on October 6th. They received approval on October 10th and encountered responses from others who reported quick approval times, typically around 5 to 8 days. Several comments shared personal experiences from applicants who also received approvals within a week, while a few noted delays or pending statuses, indicating a generally favorable but variable timeline for DTV visa processing.

Anonymous participant softpower and they asked for Vietnam stamp or visa last week as additional document. Probably because I already live in Thailand so they needed a proof I’m outside the country.

I hope so, Google says it's open but I'm not sure, in Thailand it's actually a public holidayDžeina *********
Anonymous participant do we think the embassy is closed today as it’s a public holiday in Thailand? There’s a possibility I think.

Did they ask you for other documents?Michael *******
no, but my wife owns a visa service here in Thailand and they do these a few times a week so they are pretty good at getting it right the first time. Nearly everyone I know that has done it on their own had to submit more documents 2,3,4 times….
