Hey everyone!

I’m trying to decide where to apply for my DTV visa as a remote worker/workation spot. I’ve narrowed it down to Cambodia 🇰🇭 or Vietnam 🇻🇳, but I’m unsure which is the better option.

What are the pros and cons of applying in either country? Would love to hear your experiences.

Answer summary

The post discusses options for applying for a DTV visa as a remote worker, with Cambodia and Vietnam as potential locations. Comments highlight key differences in processing times, with Cambodia generally taking longer (10-11 business days) compared to Vietnam (5-8 business days). Experiences favor Vietnam for its shorter wait times and ease of getting the visa, with suggestions to enjoy locations like Ho Chi Minh City or Da Nang during the process. There are also considerations of risk associated with each country's visa application process.

Cambodia takes 11 business days which can mean 2-3 weeks in the country compared to 5-8 business days in Vietnam.
