Question for anyone who applied in HCMC (online), how many business days did it take? Did you travel to Vietnam on a one way and but a ticket back once you were approved?

I’m in TH now and want to apply in Vietnam in January. Looking at flights but not sure whether to book a one-way or return and if return, for how long.

TIA 🙏🏼🙏🏼

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.

Has anyone gone to Vietnam to apply online, left the country after and been approved, then exit and re-enter thailand to be on dtv

Has anyone with Philippine passport tried applying DTV in Vietnam?

Hi lovely people! I'm leaving Thailand in about 10 days to go apply for my DTV. I am trying to choose between Vietnam and Taipei. I would appreciate to hear anyone's personal experiences with either places.

I work remotely but I also get treated for Lupus here in Thailand already so thinking of doing medical soft power since it's much easier to get paperwork together.

I recently signed a lease in Bang Saray (Pattaya area), does anyone know if a copy of my lease will help me?

Any advice or feedback is so much appreciated :)

Going to apply in Hanoi next months.

Besides the basic required documents I will provide an dental implant treatment schedule with 2 past and 4 future appointments until the end of 2025 including receipts with my passport number and dentist registration number,an rental agreement in Thailand and a hotel booking in Hanoi.

Would this be a probable reason and documentation?

Any experience members done this already.

Hi everyone. I’m planning to apply DTV from HCM city, but I think due to changing to e visa application process, there’s no booking date at all. Does it mean we can’t apply in person anymore in HCM city?

Thanks so much in advance.

I just got DTV in Hanoi, Vietnam today.

- applied on the last Wednesday.

- applied as a remote job employee for Myanmar company

- required documents are as described in their website plus your official stay permit in Vietnam: entry visa stamp to Vietnam and hotel booking confirmation should be okay for that.

- they mainly checked my supporting financial data and bank statement. It's better to prepare your salary pay slips if your bank transactions are not much enough. They wanted see many transactions in your bank statement.

- they will notify your application result and passport pick up date by email. So make sure email address you fill in visa application form is correct.

Good luck everyone

Hey regarding obtaining a TR60 in Vietnam. I see that HCMC requires an online appointment now in order to apply for a visa, is that correct? I see the appointments are NOT available until late next week. If true and I cannot just TURN UP like before, are there any reports on Hanoi? Can I just turn up in Hanoi, since I dont want to stay in HCMC for another week just to get a visa... (yes I know other option is as US citizen a Visa Exempt also but... prefer a TR60....)

Thank you for feedback on HCMC / Hanoi.....

Has anyone done an on-line Visa application for Vietnam I know his is a Thailand visa group thanks in advance
