Anybody recently applied and got approved for DTV while in Vietnam, through the e-visa portal? Particularly for a remote work visa.

Have some questions as i am thinking about applying myself. I've tried googling the answers but couldn't find anything concrete. Could use some help before i pay the non-refundable fee and then get rejected.

1. How old was the bank statement that you used for the showing of the equivelant of 500.000 baht? I have one from August where it shows 15.000 euros, if I print one out now, i would be a bit short (12.700 euros currently in my account).

2. I have my employment contract, however, it doesn't specifically state that i can work remotely. That is an agreement between my employer and myself. Would i need an additional letter stating the approval to work remotely?

3. I wanted to include my payslips when uploading for the financial requirements, but it seems that you can only upload 1 document, is there a way around that, or do you get the option to upload additional supporting documents later in the workflow? (I haven't gone passed the uploading files screen).

Any information would be much appreciated. I am currently in Vung Tau, else i would go to the consulate general in Ho Chi Minh City myself.

Thanks for taking your time in reading this.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is seeking advice on applying for a DTV visa through the e-visa portal while in Vietnam, specifically for remote work. They have questions about the validity of their bank statement from August showing sufficient funds, whether their employment contract needs to explicitly state remote work approval, and if they can upload multiple financial documents. Comments suggest that due to the recent launch of the eVisa system, information about DTV approval is scarce, and an outdated bank statement may not be acceptable.

An August bank statement will not be accepted.

thanks for the info. I will wait until my payslip gets deposited next week and download a statement then.

The eVisa system in Vietnam only went live about 10 days ago so your chances of finding someone with DTV approval is very slim
