Report: 

Ho Chi Minh City (Consulate-general)

Non-Immigrant O (Marriage), Multiple entry visa

Documents submitted:

> I used the website's list as the basis and added some just in case. [members only]

- filled-out application form with 1 passport  photo attached.

- handwritten letter by my wife requesting the visa.

- copy of marriage certificate front & back

- copy of wife's ID card front & back

- copy of wife's passport

- copy of wife's housebook

- copy of my passport

- copy of my housebook

- copy of relevant visa pages of my passport (Vietnam stamp-in, Vietnamese visa)

> Everything signed (by me, wife or both) <

Fee: 200 USD (USD only!)

Time: apply in the morning, pick up the next day in the afternoon.

Tips: 

- When applying, arrive a bit before opening time.

- Download, print, and fill out the application form completely at home. The consulate's room is quite small and can be quite chaotic. Have all your things prepared beforehand and get in "line".

- Check the national holidays (Thai and Vietnamese) beforehand online. A list is available on the website.

- No proof of funds needed.

All together: a succesfull trip because I was prepared and organized. Thanks to the consulate's website, this group, and its members.

I’m going next month. Where did you go to print copies of your Vietnam visa and stamp? Was that necessary to have?

I read somewhere it "might" be asked for.

Inside the consulate they have a sheet of paper (on the window) with addresses for those who need copies/dollars/photos etc at the last moment in case that's really necessary.

A bit cheaper in Laos... doesn't seem a lot and in a similar range (5K THB or a little more in other currency) in nearby countries. Single entry one is much cheaper..
