Is my documentation sufficient for applying for a DTV visa in Vietnam?

Feb 25, 2026

I will be applying for the DTV in Ho Chi Minh on March 7. I meet the financial requirements but won't have an extensive portfolio to document. I have recently completed my TEFL certification and am in progress of getting started with preply. Im planning to submit my preply profile, certification, clear intent to continue pursuing this, and anything else I can fester up by then--maybe a student or 2, a lesson plan. Is this enough?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is preparing to apply for a DTV visa in Ho Chi Minh city and is unsure if their documentation will suffice. They meet financial requirements but lack a comprehensive portfolio. They plan to include their TEFL certification, a Preply profile, and possibly some lesson plans or students' details. A comment suggests including a clear statement that they will only teach students outside of Thailand, along with their platform profile and lesson plans.

New Preply. Teachers have been approved and I know one was in Vietnam. Their

posts should be in the threads. Inc lesson plan, platform profile etc

and statement that you only teach students outside of Thailand.
