[Dependent Visa - APPROVED Hanoi]

I recently got my DTV visa after 10 working days (Vietnamese national) and applied for my spouse (British national) straight after.

He submitted his application on Sep 18 and got the visa in 5 working days. I don't think dependent visas necessarily take longer. In my case, it probably depended on the nationalities 😅.

The visa was issued today - on a Sunday so it's definitive that the embassy does work on weekends.

I used the same account on Thaievisa website for both our applications. No need to create a separate account for the dependents if you can't be bothered.

I won't go into details unless s/o asks more specific questions. Just wanna clarify some stuff I personally wondered.

Please stop spreading news that Hanoi is getting more difficult, and you don't need an agency doing it for you either. Just research, be well prepared, and you'll get it! Good luck everyone 😁

Can anyone share how long did it take to get DTV visa as workation (freelancer) in HCMC? It takes quite longer than I thought...

Applied on August 11th at 2:00am

Turned out to be pending approval on August 13th

Still so far nothing has changed.

I already know that August 11th and 12th were Thai national holidays and they don't work on weekends, but still almost 7 business days have been passed while on HCMC official consulate website says general processing time is 4~6 days. Trying to be patient but the fact that I even needed to cancel my flight ticket that supposed to leave two days ago just makes me frustrated..

Hello. I am planning to go to Hanoi in June to apply for the DTV. I believe I have everything I need. Can anyone tell me how long it should take and how I should apply (in person or online) for the fastest decision? Thank you!

Does the thai embassy in Ho Chi Minh Vietnam accept simultaneous submission of my dtv application and my spouse dtv application? If not, how long does it usually takes time for the spouse dtv visa to be approved once I got approval with my dtv?

I'm currently waiting for LTR but it could take months before their decision. I was hoping to visit for Thai New Year. I'll be applying for remote worker as I have an oversea employer in USA. I notice different embassy may differ in completion time. My embassy would be Washington DC. I have an authorized letter allowing me to work from Thailand. Yes I have 500k in savings in a regular bank.

- Is it advisable to start the DTV application while waiting for LTR?

- What the current completion time for DTV for Washington DC?

- Do you think I could be approved for DTV before the Thai New Year?

Kaawp khun khrap 🙏🏻
