Hi everyone, I need clarification about the flight requirement for the DTV visa.

I already booked a 7-day round-trip ticket to Thailand for my upcoming trip.

Some people say that for the DTV application, I must show an onward/exit flight 90 days after my arrival, not earlier.

Is this true?

Do I really need to provide a flight booking that is more than 90 days away,

or is my current 7-day round-trip ticket acceptable for the DTV pre-approval?

Has anyone successfully applied with a short-term return ticket (like 1 week or 10 days)?

Thanks in advance for your help!

For showing proof of funds - does it matter if it's a joint account with two names? (Someone told me that for a retirement visa, that means you'd have to prove double the amount)...

If I'm applying for soft power DTV, and I have a joint checking account with my father which shows a balance of a little over 500K, will that be adequate?

Hello, fellow DTV visa holders. I'm an applicant currently preparing my documents, and I work as a freelancer. I have a question: I previously ran a company, which was the main source of my savings, but the company has now ceased operations. I have since transitioned to working as a freelance professional. My question is, do I need to provide proof of having operated that company? I would appreciate your advice. Thank you.

Hi all,

when applying for DTV under workation category how long do you need to hold a remote work to be granted visa? Am I good to go if I started this job in the previous month? Can you share your experiences?

Hey all, I’m heading to Hanoi on Monday and was hoping to find out if bank statements can be a few days old by the time I submit them? I prepared all my documents last night hoping that I can send them in soon after I land in Vietnam.

Appreciate any help, thank you ~

I’m planning to apply for my DTV from Colombo Sri Lanka. I transfered the money to my personal account on september 16th.

That means I can provide a 500k+ bankstatement for the following months:

September (only closing statement of 500k +)

October (start 500k+ end 500k+)

November (start 500k+ 24th november 500k+)

Is this enough?

Do I provide all my bank statements and transaction or only closing and opening balance?

Do I need to have all the documents I have translated into English certified when submitting my DTV visa application?

Hi all, I'm getting conflicting info so Id like to check with you. Is an outbound flight booking from Thailand requested for the DTV application?

Anyone applied for soft power in Vietnam and funds were mostly in their business bank?

Just thinking the statement would be in my company name then would need another piece of paper showing that I own the company

Makes it a little complicated for the person reading the application I feel

Do you need to have worked for a company for at least 6 months before applying for the DTV?
