ORIGINAL POSTERHey everyone 👋
I’m currently planning to apply for the DTV via the Soft Power route (Muay Thai).
I intend to submit the application through Issa Compass, mainly because of their money-back guarantee in case something goes wrong.
I’d love to hear your experiences:
👉 Which location is usually smoother and faster for the application – Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City?
Thanks a lot in advance for any insights 🙏
