TLDR : Answer Summary
The user expresses anxiety over not receiving their eVisa from Vietnam for their flight scheduled at 5:05 PM. They have been waiting for six days, and their husband may need to fly alone if the eVisa does not arrive in time. Comments from others share their experiences with eVisa processing times and give advice on handling the situation.

This post makes zero sense. If you are in BKK already then you already entered the country visa exempt.

You should be there in the country where the Embassy is that you applied from. You could be asked to upload all your passport pages to show you are there even at this stage

once the visa comes through why don’t you take an overnight bus from Bangkok, I thinks it’s only 12 hour drive to HCMC?

@Charles *********
It is 12h to the border ... then through Laos and then to HCMC .... so roughly 24h

mine took 6 days - came through 2 hours before the flight. With vietjet the cutoff for refunding or flight changes is 3 or 4 hrs depending the circumstances.

hopefully they won’t ask for more documents and proof of your location could be denied if not in Vietnam
