Hi everyone,

I’m planning to apply for the DTV visa as an American selling on Amazon and eBay. I run the business under my own name (sole proprietor), filing taxes in my name with a Schedule C (profit & loss form for a business).

I’ll be applying electronically through the Thai Embassy in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Would love to hear what other people with similar case details had gone through filling in Vietnam, what documents they requested, and also if anyone know if Amazon and eBay stores screenshots (that show my name) are accepted as sufficient proof of a business? Or do they usually require additional documents like W9 from Amazon, bank deposit records from Amazon or IRS tax filings?

Would really appreciate hearing from anyone with similar experience or who’s gone through this process. Thanks in advance!

I'm looking into applying for the DTV as a sole proprietor. For those of you that have done this:

What embassy did you go through?

What documents were required?

How long did it take to be approved?

Thanks so much in advance!

Hello,

I am preparing my documents for my application & I see that a letter from your registered company is recommended. But what if you are self employed as a sole proprietor?

Is a business that is a sole proprietor (not a registered company) able to sponsor a Business Visa?
