Got approved in Hanoi for DTV workcation. My timeline:

(I'm a business owner, so I have a contract with myself as a managing director and getting a salary from my own company).

Timeline:

* Jan 4 (Sunday): Applied

* Jan 6 (Tuesday): Additional documents requested

* Jan 11 (Sunday): Approved

5 business days in total.

How is it even possible to get approved on a Sunday? I thought the embassy is closed on a Sunday? 🤔
