DTV application in Hanoi approved! 🎉
I am the one who got requested to provide all the Thai visas I have received until present as additional document. If anyone is in a similar situation and was also asked to show them previous visas, it seems that there is nothing to worry about!
Anyway, If anyone is interested, I will share the details of my application process as a digital nomad.
5.11 (TUESDAY) – application submitted
documents I uploaded:
- confirmation of my location - Vietnamese visa stamp on my passport
- a bank certificate confirming that I have 500k bht in my account (original and English translation), no bank statements!
- in one pdf file: employment contract (original, translation), permission letter signed by the company owner, portfolio (although the website says they only require one of these, I preferred to play it safe)
For the translations I just used google translate - I simply uploaded a jpg file (screenshot) there, translator gave me back translated document, also in jpg format
6.11 (WEDNESDAY) - request for additional document: hotel booking in Vietnam
7.11 (THURSDAY) - request for additional document: all thai visa I received until present
TODAY 11/11 - visa approved.
