Hi everyone,

I’m currently on a DTV visa, and my boyfriend is here on a student visa. My 6-month stamp is expiring on August 13, so we’re looking into doing a border bounce, and I’d love some advice based on recent experiences.

These are the options we’re considering:

– Nong Khai (Laos) – Has anyone on a DTV visa done a border run there recently? Is it still straightforward?

– Cambodia by car – We have a car and were thinking of driving to Siem Reap, but I heard there might be land border closures. Is this still possible right now?

– Flying to Vietnam (Da Nang) – This might be the backup plan if land routes aren’t an option.

If anyone has done one of these recently or has any updates—especially about Cambodia—I’d really appreciate the help. Just trying to plan ahead before my stamp expires. Thanks so much 💛

Hi!

Need a visa agent to support me and my VN gf with DTV visas. I'm Lithuanian. Have the needed money on account, just don't want to do it through my embassy in person, as it's in Denmark. I'm in VN now, would be best to solve all here or online. Any options?

Thanks!

I’m a solo traveler and I need to figure out how to get a DTV visa to get back to Thailand. I originally came in to Thailand on a 90 day tourist visa. I then extended another 30 days. I left the country and went to Malaysia for about a month. I came back into Thailand on a 60 day tourist no visa. I left again and came back for another 60 days. I’m currently in Vietnam but I have to get a DTV visa per Thailand immigration. I was told by Thailand Immigration agent I can do this while I’m in Vietnam. So I only have a week in Vietnam. I want to extend in Vietnam to give me more time to get this done. However I cannot found any information on how to extend in Vietnam. Any advice is greatly appreciated. I’m a freelance content writer and instructional designer.

Hey, my visa application in Cambodia was cancelled today(wrong name). I've been thinking of applying straight away from Vietnam? Is it a good idea or should I wait some time? Also what's the processing time there? Has anybody applied in Vietnam recently?

Hey guys

I submitted my DTV from Ho Chi Minh

I only put 7 days on my evisa for Vietnam, which was stupid because I will now likely have to leave if my dtv isn’t approved by then.

Here are my questions

Do I have to stay in Vietnam for the entirety of the approval process? Or am I allowed to leave

And if I have to stay, can I do a land or air border run and will it affect my application?

Many thanks!

I'm going to be flying to Hanoi soon and applying for a DTV Visa. Most of my bank accounts are Canadian and Singaporean, but I'd like to forgo the Vietnam visa fee by entering with my Norwegian passport (also time consideration as my flight leaves soon). Would it be awkward to apply with my Norwegian passport, if all of my bank accounts are Canadian and Singaporean?

I'm going to apply for a dtv in Muay Thai. Please tell me the Muay Thai gym where I can get a dtv among the places close to On Nut. And where should I get a visa between Laos and Vietnam?

Thank you for your help! 🙏🙏🙏

Yes, I made a mistake. No excuses, since I should have read the group posts more carefully.

I submitted a workation application in Hanoi earlier today but now, reading the group, I realised that as "Document indicating current location" I submitted only my hotel reservation document, but not the page of my passport with entry stamp and flight to Hanoi. Did someone receive a request for these additional documents? or is it going to be straight rejection? 🥲

I read for about half hour, but can't find this question.

Thank you.

1st update: indeed like most people told me, I got asked to send the photo of my passport plus another document on the day after I applied and now it’s in “pending approval” since a few days.

2nd update: approved!

I'm going to get Muay Thai dtv visa. How long does it take in Vietnam?

Hey guys, I plan to fly into Hanoi and submit my documents via the embassy/consulate, I know there is a possibility that I can be called in for an interview so I’m just wondering if anyone in Hanoi recently has been called in for an interview or Not? I wanted to travel around to Danang and maybe Hoi An while I wait, do you think there will be any issues just looking for people with past experience in Vietnam. Thanks and I appreciate any help you can give me
