TLDR : Answer Summary
A community member shared their step-by-step video on how they obtained the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) from the Thai Embassy in Ho Chi Minh, including application processes, required documents, and personal experiences. While the video aims to assist those applying or interested in the visa, several comments highlight concerns about the accuracy of the information shared, with many stating there is already plenty of information available regarding the visa process, and expressing skepticism about the video's usefulness.

A lot of incorrect information in that video, which is based on your personal experience only.
Also there is plenty of information on how to apply, namely in the same place where you’ve just shared the video

Made it to 37 seconds, wrong info said, you didn't get a visa on arrival, you got the exemption. Not worth listening to more.
