Does anyone have any recent experience of getting a SETV in HCM? I'm already in Vietnam.

TLDR : Answer Summary

Recent discussions on the experience of obtaining a Single Entry Tourist Visa (SETV) in Ho Chi Minh City highlight the importance of checking specific requirements with the consulate, particularly concerning medical certificates and health insurance, which may not be uniform across embassies. One commenter humorously suggests the need for patience when making inquiries due to potential complexities involved in the process.

I'd call the consulate in HCMC and ask if they're require the medical cert. I haven't seen anything specific to them, but it's very possible all the embassy's are requiring it.

As for coming into Thailand, it depends on when. Just saw something about a proposal to require a medical certificate and health insurance, don't think that has actually been put in place though.
