What should I put for my flight details when applying for the DTV from Vietnam if I haven't booked a flight to Thailand yet?

Hi! I'm flying to Vietnam to apply for the DTV but I don't have a flight to Thailand yet because a) I don't have any guarantee that I'll get the DTV and b) if I do get it, I don't know when. So I don't want to book a flight to Thailand because I might lose money.

Does anyone have any idea what to put here?

Can you put a land port as an alternative?

You are mistaken you do need Vietnam Immigration Stamp copy, hotel accommodation and Vietnam visa copy in order to get your visa processed

Why are you doing it online? Did something change as I understood Vientiane is an in person application. So you can fill out the paper one and hand it in, at any rate you apply at the embassy of the country you are currently in when doing it online.

They are applying in Vietnam not Laos, Vientiane. Vietnam is now online.

When you fly to Vietnam you need a flight out or a visa! You can't fly in one way
