ORIGINAL POSTER
Query on Vietnam and the 2 embassies: I am planning on landing in Hanoi making my application then taking a trip to halong bay or somewhere. Then potentially a trip to phu quoc to chill as i wait out the process if still ongoing. Travelling in two weeks time.

Im reading that provided I have entry stamp and accommodation in the jurisdiction of the application then I am ok. Any experiences here with moving in country while processing is ongoing?

Any feedback on Tet delays? I presume TH embassy will take opportunity to close.

Hello folks.

I applied last 27th feb in HCM for DTV visa workation.

Our hotel was very close to the embassy so i asked my wife (Thai citizen) to see if they would provide any information about the processing time of my application.

They let her in (not me) and told her that they were pretty busy with many applications that have piled up during TET.

They let her know her that if all paperwork was in order it would take 5 business days (we know this) BUT it could take a bit longer. They said that it would probably be more safe to book a flight back not before 13 or 14 feb.

I like vietnam but i didn't expect to spend so long there. let's be patient. Good luck
