DTV Visa approved in Helsinki

Applied through e-visa system.

Fee was 350€

-Sent my current balance ( required was 15000€)

They asked additional last month's bank statement, was my ''savings'' account, so I had just a few transfers there. Sent and was good.

-For proof of location sent a telephone company bill

- Proof of digital nomad status/portfolio

At first sent a picture of my webpage where I had collection of my works, but that didn't do. Then sent my business register info. That wasn't enough as well. Wrote to them and asked what was needed, I was told I needed a letter from company head stating i was doing remote work as a freelancer and job description in a few words. Wrote the letter to myself as the head of my company, just a few sentences that I work remotely as a freelancer and what I do. Sent, accepted.

Hope this helps someone 😊

DTV Application Embassy Hanoi:

Got an email with the answers to my questions. Didn’t ask about proof of funds because that seems obvious to me. Also didn’t ask about how it works with employment contract since that’s not my case.

1. Visa processing time approx. 3 working days

2. notarised company registration papers as proof of work

3. document that shows booked doctor appointment

(asked about soft power as well)

4. visa stamp in passport accepted as proof of location

If anyone applies in the next weeks or months, I'd love to hear how it went. Planning on going to Hanoi mid November.

Cheers ☺️
