I have obtained a DTV visa. It took me three and a half days in Vietnam. The documents are very simple, just as described in the promotional page. Everyone can apply for it. You can DIY it. Don't trust the agents. It's not worth giving them money. Believe me, you can apply for it yourself.

Yes… super simple.

The minor mistakes I made prolonged the process.

I had taken a photo of a passport sized picture for my profile picture - clearly not good enough quality. And I only supplied 3 months instead of the 6 .. so this delayed my application. The rest is easy too
