What are the steps and requirements for obtaining a Digital Nomad visa at the HCMC Embassy?

HCMC Embassy:

DTV visa granted (Digital Nomad category)

*Please note that this embassy has no more online appointments and I have been told they are moving to Evisa in October, but...

This was such an incredibly easy process.

I submitted:

-Application form filled in with photo attached (to save time, have it stuck on already)

-6 months bank statements showing more than 500,000 Baht

-Cover letter introducing how I make money online (I have an online teaching brand and sell digital courses / consulting)

-Resume

-Screenshots of website, YT channel and digital offers.

-Stripe transitions for August/ Sept 2024

-2 Invoices from clients

-Lease in Bangkok

-HCMC airbnb booking

-$340 (exact change)

They took everything, so not sure if I over-submitted or not.

The only hiccup was the USD cash. I had "new" notes but they weren't new enough. I had to take a grab bike to their recommended exchange shop where they easily switched my USD for newer bills for a charge of about 100k Dong for Each $100. If in doubt, just go to the exchange place and double check. The guy who helped me knew exactly what I needed and could tell which bills would be accepted or not.

The turnaround was exactly 2 days and I spent less than 30 minutes there to submit and less than 1 minute to pick up.

Good luck to everyone! This visa is definitely too good to be true, so a good idea to get it if/before anything changes.
