DTV approved in Ho Chi Minh in 4 business days through Muay thai

Thanks for the great info from this group. Here's me giving back with my experience.

Thursday - Applied online with the following:

- Wise bank statement of USD account. 3 months but had over 500k THB worth 1 week out

- Letter from Muay Thai Gym showing 3 month paid membership

- Agoda booking screenshot of my stay in Vietnam

Friday - I got the following email asking for additional docs

1 - Document indicating current location: To certify your current location, please submit the arrival stamp to Vietnam and hotel booking/fight ticket round trip to Vietnam, please ensure that the period of stay is longer than 5 days for visa processing. All documents must be in English/Thai.

2 - Other request documents: Please provide the training course, company registration/DBD. All documents must be in English/Thai. If not, they must be translated, please ensure the document is clear and readable."

Saturday - I submitted the following

- Vietnam entry stamp

- Muay Thai gym company registration and DBD

- I also provided that bank receipt of my paid 3 month membership which I didn't include last time

Tuesday - 2:30pm - DTV approved

For all the people who think you can go back to Thailand and not have to wait for the visa approved, see the remark the embassy made about a period of stay longer than 5 days for visa processing.

What if your next entry to Thailand (180 days)? Do you have to buy another 3 month of course?
