Hi guys!

I am currently located in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and I am planning a trip to Thailand and other neighboring countries in the coming months. I would like to apply for a 6-month multiple-entry tourist visa and I would appreciate some clarification regarding the necessary requirements.

Specifically, I would like to know which documents I need to provide to fulfill the "Travel booking confirmation" requirement in point number 4 of the last section of the e-visa application form.

Is it sufficient to include the inbound flight to Thailand or do I also need to provide the train ticket that I will be taking to reach the border with Laos, where I will be visiting for a few days before returning to Thailand using the same means of transportation?

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is seeking clarification on the document requirements for applying for a 6-month multiple-entry tourist visa to Thailand while currently in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. They specifically inquire about the 'Travel booking confirmation' needed for the e-visa application, asking if an inbound flight to Thailand suffices or if they also need to include a train ticket for travel to Laos. The conversation reveals that applying for a METV might be complicated from Vietnam, as responses suggest it typically needs to be done from one's home country, although some participants mention that the Thai consulate in Ho Chi Minh has confirmed applications for non-Vietnamese residents are possible.

You are falling for a grand misunderstanding

When the Ho Chi Minh Thai consulate told you that you could apply for the METV even while being inside Vietnam, they didn’t make clear at least the basics!

You cannot apply for a METV in any other country but in your home country.

You can only apply for the single entry Tourist Visa in another country than your home country

But YES, you can apply while you are staying in Vietnam.

They, however, forgot to tell you that you could not apply at their consulate, but in the Online E-visa system of your home country, while you were staying in Vietnam.

That’s the misunderstanding around your personal experience

You didn’t even question this. And you didn’t try to apply through your home country’s E-visa system.

If you did, you would have found out that you probably were to prove that you depart by a flight from your home country.

Or worse, you would have found out that they found out that you weren’t in your home country physically, and reject the application

You should trust in the group admin’s knowledge.

Myself I have never found the admin wrong, in the many years I am a member in this group and reading in it every day

 not even Vietnamese citizens and residents, can apply for a METV. It simply isn't available any more. At least both websites, HCMC and Hanoi, do NOT list it . . . can you tell me where you found it? Or did you pick single entry type not out of "personal reasons", but rather because you couldn't find the multi entry type in the E-visa system? UPDATE yourself, dude

 That’s the date the embassy/consulate went online and started using e-visa. You still can’t apply for a METV, Non O-A or Non O-X as a foreigner unless you also have a permanent residence in Vietnam at date. This is as rest of the world.

 But why did you just apply for a 60 days tourist visa with single entry when you get 60 days visa exemption upon arrival as an Italian citizen anyway? What is the benefit with this? 60 days with a tourist visa VS 60 days on free visa exemption 🤷🏼

 Hey Dario. For what it’s worth, I’m in Vietnam now. I talked to an agent on if it was best for me to try to get a Non O in Vietnam to make the paperwork easier for the retirement extension when I got back or do everything when I got back to Thailand. He told I couldn’t get a Non O in Vietnam, only my home country. I asked him about a somewhat shady idea I had that I thought would work, but he said I “wasn’t the first one to think of that” and told me why it wouldn’t work . I asked him if he knew any way around it and he said there wasn’t any way or HE would know about it. So, I guess I’ll do it the other way.🤷🏻‍♂️ It’s disappointing because I just left on Non O at 90 days. I don’t understand why I have to be in my home country to do it. It’s ok if I fly 9000 miles, do the application, get it approved then fly back 9000 miles, but I can’t hop to a neighboring country and do the same process. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Oh well, the agent told me that the little extra he would charge me for doing the application from an exemption is less than me paying the fee for the Non O, so it works out ok anyway. Let me know if you found out a work around. Thanks.

And not sure what city you’re in, but have you dam near had to swing on one of those little shitheads with the tooth brushes that just starts cleaning your shoes?? You can’t get rid of the f**kers! This was my first full day here and so far…meh.

 I've been traveling between Thailand and Vietnam since April, and one thing I've realized well is that I will always refer to government authorities to find out things about visas. A lot of times people think they know things and instead they don't know anything, and anyway the responsibility for applications that are submitted is always yours even if an agency intervenes.

I am currently in Ho Chi Minh and one of those assholes 3 months ago gave me the only scam I have received since I have been in Asia. Piss them off now and don't give them any confidence. In early October when I came back I met him again twice and treated him very badly but it was better not to overdo it being

 What was the scam, the shoe thing? I had THREE of them come up and try it. 1 followed me for almost a block. The 3rd one I literally yelled to him "I SAID NO!". He finally got the point. I don't even know how much it costs...my shoes actually do kinda need to be cleaned though. 😁 At least in Thailand, the beggars hit you up and then leave you alone. Over here, they just keep coming and coming. That by far has been the worst thing in my 2 days here. I started looking at flights to Da Nang when I got back to the room.

 Tourist visa is not a guarantee anyway, but if you’ve just done one visa exemption entry before you went to Vietnam, you should be fine with another visa exemption anyway. Tourist visa might just be a bit more safe if you risk to get denied, and if you enter by land border with a tourist visa they’ll almost always let you in anyway.

I would think you need to provide both, as they want to see why you will need a METV. I was originally going to get that but opted for the Non O. Can’t remember if it was because the METV was too difficult or not, but it also seems like I read that if they don’t think you need a ME, they will grant a SE but will not refund the difference in the fee paid for the application, so I would include the travel documents for your departure if it allows you upload them. If you haven’t gotten the outbound yet, you may want to ponder the exemption, if you get the 60 day + 30 extension. I don’t like having to book in advance when I don’t know when I want to leave. You may be having fun and want to stay a bit longer before you leave. I don’t see how people book a year ahead for a 2 or 3 week trip with a specific itinerary of 5 different places. I’d rather just play it by ear.

P.S. I’m about to have to have to bounce, and, ironically, I’m headed TO HCMC. How did you like it there? I’ve read a lot of good things and I’m looking forward to the trip.

 I have already done a visa exemption+extension and then a 2 month tourist visa+extension. If I opt for another visa exemption and at immigration they decide not to do it for me I risk having to return to Europe. For me it is my second time in HCMC and I like it very much as well as the people and the food. At this time there are not as many people as in June but I think that is normal.

The OP is almost certainly confused and is referring to the DTV visa. Not an METV.

Either that or he’s a complete asshole and won’t listen to anyone. He’s too superior to listen to people on here advising him he can only get the METV in his home country.

And if he gets pissy with me for not answering his question he’ll be gone in the blink of an eye. We’ve got enough arrogant pricks to fill our quota.

 I seen loads of questions from people asking what to answer on the DTV forums. “Do I put flights for 180 days out” or similar so I’d assume it does ask for something like that. I’ve not applied for one nor walked through the steps to do so so I can’t be sure.

 there are different rules on visas for different nationality. That is pretty obvious.

There are 6 different set of rules on visa requirement depending on what country you come from. Some counties require a visa to enter some get 15days on arrival some 30 some 60 and some 90.

Which are you?

Before I block you, I would like to point out that people have tried to offer their assistance and advice.

 I don't think I offended anyone. You could reread all the answers I received and understand that people have problems understanding the text. There was not one person who actually read what I was asking except for a girl whose name I don't remember now and who I liked. I simply wanted information on a requirement for submitting a visa application not an opinion on whether it is possible to apply for one. What use is a group about visas for Thailand where no member is updated on the new laws that came into force this month? What use are you? As for karma, think of me as soon as something unpleasant happens to you. You are just one of the many children of Western intolerance.

 As you obviously don’t have knowledge of. You can only apply for a METV at the embassy/consulate of your passport nation OR your current permanent residence at date. This is basic knowledge. If you apply they’ll only give you a three months single entry tourist visa. As you just currently is HMCH I guess you already haven’t applied for permanent residence in Vietnam. If so you can apply for a METV.
