TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion revolves around whether a family should apply for a DTV visa in Laos in person or take a risk with an e-visa application in Vietnam. One suggestion is to visit Da Nang, Vietnam, and apply there if confident about the chances of getting the visa. Alternatives such as applying in Malaysia or Taiwan were also mentioned, with Laos being considered a third option.

I personally would go danang for a week and do there if you’re confident you will get it. Otherwise physically malaysia or taiwan if you can, or laos third.

hey Stephen, I'm trying to find out more about evisa from Malaysia, have you heard of any success stories yet? Their rules were quite strict when it was in person and wondered if it's relaxed a bit now it's an evisa 🤷🏼‍♀️ the application process seems the same for every country
