ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi everyone, Australian citizen here 🙋

Currently I have a lease for a condo in Bangkok and about to travel to Vietnam to do my application for DTV visa 

With the DTV application form, it states to write "current address." Is it best to write my short term address where I will stay in Vietnam since I'm doing my application in Vietnam or should I write down my Bangkok or Australian address?

Same with "contact number" should I provide my Thai or Australian number or will they need to call me during this process and is it better to just get a Vietnamese sim card and provide a Vietnamese contact number?

If anybody who have gone through this process, was approved, in a similar situation as me and can give me guidance with these questions, that would be greatly appreciated 🙏🏽

Can't be an address in Thailand. So either use Australian Address, you'll need to upload proof of the address like a lease, mortgage, utility. You can upload a bill from the hotel possibly and put Vietnam as your current address. They have switched to eVisa online only from what I've heard...

Hmm. "Current Address," what's the confusion? Is Thailand going after people lacking reading comprehension?

no, it means you must be in Vietnam to apply via e-visa and wait for approval.
