ORIGINAL POSTER

I’m planning to apply for a DTV (Remote Job) and I’m looking for suggestions on **which country is better to apply from Hanoi or Jakarta?

I’d love to hear about your recent experiences, including:

• Which location was easier or faster?

• How was the interview/appointment process?

• Any unexpected issues or tips you learned?

• Cost differences between the two places?

• How long the whole process took?

I’m trying to decide where to apply and would really appreciate honest updates from anyone who has done this recently.

Thanks in advance ka! 😊🙏

Hard to tell. It all depends on the documents you upload. If not correct the Embassy might ask to upload again, if not correct, the Embassy will ask for correct documents, if not complete the Embassy will ask again and it can take months if you do not comply witht he requests.

It can go quick if you do all perfect the first time

Basis what people have been sharing on the group, Hanoi could be a better choice.

Please research recent approvals made in Hanoi and match with your profile and take a call.
