ORIGINAL POSTERI made my request 2 times for DTV with a muy Thai school, the first request to Ho Chi Minh was refused (I had returned to Thailand before the answer I did not know...). But I remade my application in Hanoi a few days ago, I have absolutely all the necessary documents and amount, but they still refused....without any explanation... I don't know what to do it's a lot of money for nothing. Do you have any advice?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is facing difficulties with their DTV visa application for attending a Muay Thai school in Thailand, having their first application rejected in Ho Chi Minh and a subsequent application in Hanoi also denied without clear reasons. Community members suggest waiting a while before reapplying, ensuring compliance with visa rules, and providing detailed documentation to strengthen the case.

You haven’t given us much information to help you
When you applied in Hanoi (time #2):
- Did you provide all the necessary proof of location documents (search the group what others provided)?
- Did you stay in Vietnam and wait for the result?

Give it a few months break and apply again. You probably got "shadow banned" since you broke the rules on your first application and applied immediately again. Your best call would be to go back to France and apply in 2026 so that they "reset" the stuff from this year

Was it rejected or cancelled? If it was cancelled it implies an error with your bio data. If it was rejected how long was the course for? Did they ask how you will support yourself and if so how did you answer?

My guess is that since you didn't follow the rules the first time (even though you didn't know), they worry you're not going to follow other rules while having the DTV so they rejected it the second time.

Unfortunately this is a possibility. It will be on the record for subsequent applications and review. They did seem to reject quickly without asking for any more info.Reply to

You need to at least have classes scheduled out for 3-4 months. It needs to show you need longer than a typical tourist visa

The first rejection due to not following the rules, stay in Vietnam while processed, may have caused them to reject again. It could be seen by the assessor that you do not follow the rules of the visa.

Did the school offer you a refund?

Anonymous participant 302 No refunds - you pay for visa processing.

Anonymous participant If you share your details then as a group here we all can try and figure what went wrong and what can be done better.
Given the limited information you have shared, it's difficult to say much.
