HCMC Vietnam question.

( apologies in advance if the answers to my questions are obvious. I don't see a consolidated answer on here , so was hoping for a response from someone with firsit hand experience )

I live in Thailand but work all over Asia so quite hard to tie down exact dates, but of course will make it work.

I read that people are are applying online for the HCMC and waiting 2 weeks for an appointment.

1. Is the 2 weeks a minimum ? Set in stone ?

2. Can you select a range of dates for your appointment?

3. Can I only apply once inside Vietnamto lock in the appointment. I'm aware that proof of arrival are required. I'm just not sure that is needed at the start.

I will be providing the following. My Thai address will be our family villa in wife's name.

1. Passport copies

2. Passport photos x 2

3. Latest wage slip. More available upon request.

4. 6 months bank statement. Latest balance of bank balance. More available upon request.

5. Letter from company, confirming my salary, length of employment and remote work ability.

6. Singapore Tax return. Showing taxes paid in full.

7. Proof of address in Thailand on bank statement.

If I arrive in Thailand on DTV & stay 60 days then come back a week later and stay another 60 days do I have to do a 90 day report ? Or is it for 90 days continuously ?

How is the DTV process going to change once it switches to e-visa? It sounds like it would be easier but with a closer look it seems like you have to apply from your home country. Anyone have any information about the e-visa? For example, I called Jakarta embassy and they said they will not accept in person appointments starting in October.

As a remote employee of a Canadian sales company, I am interested in relocating to Thailand while maintaining my current job. Would this qualify me for the DTV visa?

Just want to confirm something:

A Non-O Visa based on marriage means that you must be married to a Thai person before applying, right? You cannot apply in your own country, travel to Thailand get then get married, right? Seems to be the case, but with so many saying "tiT" one never knows 😜

As of this message what are the 1 year + visa options for someone under 50, not married. American if that matters. I'm aware of the elite visa. He has 27 days left on his current visa but only 3 or 3.5 pages left in his passport. Looking for one year stay + only. Thanks in advance.

Hi All.. I am planning to arrive in Thailand on a tourist visa and convert to retirement visa. I am bringing my cat (I have had numerous discussions with him and he does not want to stay in the UK anymore either). I was planning to arrive a few weeks before the cat but am now told I possibly need a long term visa to import the cat, contrary to previous advice. Thai authorities only seem to require a copy of passport but no visa for import licence? Does anyone have any experience on this as I have spoken to the pet relocation company and they do not have a diffinitive answer either. I would rather not stay in the UK for another 3 months, so any help appreciated…

I have a Non-Immigrant O-A visa, issued from my application filed in South Korea.

The visa is multiple entry.

The visa was granted 15-December-2023.

Visa must be used by 14-December-2024.

I am a USA citizen.

I am a permanent resident of South Korea.

My next trip to Thailand is scheduled for 1-December-2024.

My required Thai insurance certificate is valid until 25-December 2025.

OK.. The question. When I enter, my “visa” will be activated for one year (I assume until November 30, 2025). What about paperwork. Until now, I have had the Thai eVisa letter with the dates. If I leave in January for a trip home, what do I need to do?

Do I need to get another multi-entry stamp?

How does immigration know that my visa is valid until November 30, 2025?

How would I prove it when I re-enter the Kingdom AFTER my trip home in January?

Thank you for your help.
