Hello! It's been exactly 7 days since I applied in Hanoi (workation) US citizen , my application has been on pending approval for 6 days. I'm getting worried? Any idea how much longer I can expect? I'm itching to leave, love Vietnam but Hanoi is not for me. I understand I have to remain here for the chance an interview is required.

Hi everyone. I am thinking of going to Hanoi to apply for the DTV, because I have heard they are less strict than in Ho Chi Minh city.

But I was wondering after sending the application online in Hanoi, can I go to another city like Da Nang for example?

I ask this because Da Nang is part of the Ho Chi Minh Thai embassy area, so I don't know if I can move around Vietnam like that.

Thank you so much 🙏

Is it okay to bound from one hotel to another while on dtv visa application process? Im planning to stay 1 week at a time to different hotels in ho chi minh while waiting for my visa to process. Any thoughts?

Hi everyone,

sorry not Thailand related but was wondering if there is a similar page to this for Vietnam Visa & travel?
