What should I do if my Vietnam visa is expiring while waiting for my DTV application approval?
HCMC DTV applied 7th of May, it's now the 20th and pending approval.
Should I fly to Hanoi and submit an additional application?
What happens if my vietnam visa ends? Does my DTV application automatically expire?
Cheers for the help.

It seems like there have been some delays with the Thai visa applications in Ho Chi Minh City, possibly due to recent holidays, Weekend etc.
Reach out to the Thai embassy directly for updates. Sometimes delays can be resolved with direct communication.
