What is the timeline for applying for a DTV visa in Vietnam and what documents are required?
Sharing my DTV visa timeline.
January 29th landed in Vietnam, Ho Chi Minh City, and submitted my visa request in the middle of TET.
Feb 3 - first business day, no updates from the embassy.
Feb 4 - second business day, still no updates. Emailed the embassy with “asking for update”.
Feb 5 - third business day. Received a request for additional documents. Submitted the docs, emailed the embassy (replied to their email) and received my e-Visa in an email 40 mins after the email.
Document list:
- Passport.
- Proof of stay: picture from passport with Vietnam’s stamp on it.
- Bank statement (deposit, debit card). Just out of curiosity I added an investment account statement.
- CV + work sample + employment contract.
