I got my DTV (soft power: Thai cooking) approved today from Hanoi. I applied last Friday, January 10. They asked for a recent bank statement on Monday, January 13 (since my UK bank updates only on the 10th of each month), and it was in Pending Approval status for two days. I received approval around 1:30 PM today. I’ve booked my return flight to Bangkok for this evening. Thanks for all the helpful back-and-forth information in this group. See you, Kingdom!

 great convenient location. If I don’t get my DTV for digital nomad, I will go this route. And congratulations on it being an extremely fast! I’m going on two weeks for Washington DC. After one week, they reached out for my tax returns and a self-employment letter. Beforehand they stated 2 to 4 weeks processing so they’re on schedule.
