ORIGINAL POSTERWhat would be the best embassy to apply to in SE Asia which tends to accept majority of applications? I am receiving a sponsor for the DTV from a relative and wondered whether some embassy’s are more willing to accept this over others? Is Hanoi ok for this or would somewhere else be better? Thanks for your help
TLDR : Answer Summary
The post inquires about the best embassy in Southeast Asia to apply for a DTV visa, particularly due to having a relative as a sponsor. The comments discuss the acceptability of sponsorship by family members, emphasizing that immediate family members like parents can sponsor dependants, while other relatives might not be accepted. Suggestions are made regarding financing through a sponsor's funds. Overall, there is uncertainty on the best embassy, with a concern that no clear answer exists.

Normally parents can sponsor their dependant childeren when they have themselves DTV.
It is also possible to sponsor your spouse if you are DTV holder yourself.
Other family sponsors are normally not accepted, but of course you always can ask.
Better is to borrow the money from your sponsor and put it on your account.

Is it better for a family to apply for a DTV visa in Laos physically or to use an e-visa in Vietnam?
