Hanoi DTV question + advice

I have decided to go to Hanoi to apply for my DTV visa.

As there is no accurate way of telling how long it will take to approve the visa, is it acceptable to arrive in Vietnam on a one way ticket and will the Thai Embassy look for a confirmed flight to Thailand.

Changing ticket dates with Air Asia is impossible.

I am not that great ( understatement ) with stuff like changing documents to PDF, compressing them ... Etc, can anyone recommend an Agent or someone / somewhere in Hanoi who knows what the Embassy requires and can upload what's needed correctly.

Can anyone recommend from their experience a decent place ( budget ) to stay in Hanoi. I know that booking.com has lots but looking for a personal recommendation.

Thanks

Hello, I decided to get a driver's license so that they can recognize my European license, but they are making me translate the legend into English. Has anyone had a similar problem and is there an office in Bangkok that I can go to without a translation? I was at Mo Chit's office.

Hello! Which Thai embassies in Asia have you had a more or less hassle-free experience applying for a multiple entry DTV visa? Thanks!

Greetings

Can anyone advise please?

The Customer Service Officer for International Centralised Services International here in NZ has indicated that a client declaration (standard form) needs to be completed every 6 months while away overseas to ensure continuation of Superanuation payments.

This declaration requires a witness signature, and if to be e-mailed in return also requires a stamp.

The stamp must show the city/country that the witness is in.

If you post the form, you do not need to have it stamped by the witness as the postal stamp will show this.

Can anyone advise where such a stamp may be located, or offer advise pl.

Thanks

Under everything else:

Anyone been to minstry of foreign affairs in Laksi last few days? I hear reports it's been affected by the earthquake. If that's the case, is it anywhere else you can get papers translated and the legalized stamp?

TIA 🙏

Hi folks just wanted to get the latest on which embassies outside of Thailand can offer the multiple entry Non O marriage visa. Singapore had it for years, removed it, recently brought it back, then removed it again :(.

Coming in on a single then extending inside Thailand is not an option due to the 60 day inside country ( before you can apply ) criteria as I work on rotation. Very frustrating as I'm sure this effects a large number of people who bring in good money to the country. Coming in on a single every time, applying 21 days before online will just not work, that method would also require me to have 400k locked up for the entire year.

I will be working in Australia next month for a little while if that helps ,?

Hi folks, I am a UK Citizen and have lived in Bangkok for over a year. I am having a lot of trouble getting my 'DWP Proof of Life certificate' signed.

So far I have tried the police station, my bank, my pharmacist and even the Tax Office where I pay my taxes, but no one wants to sign it for me.

It doesn't help that it is written in English and the people I have asked are unable to read it.

I have translated it to Thai via Google App Translator, but that does not seem to have helped any.

They have all told me that they are afraid to sign it in case they get into trouble.

It would really be helpful if we could just take it to the British Embassy, but I have heard that they would not sign it for me.

Any assistance or advice anyone could give me would truly be appreciated
