HCMC requirements are ridiculous. Don't know why so many people do it there.

Congratulations! For the HCMC embassy’s DTV application, do they require 3 months or 6 months of bank statements? Also, does the account need to have an average balance of 500K, or is it enough to just have 500K before applying?
