Hello everyone,

I can't find the information, but does our passport have to be valid for 5 years before we apply?

I am trying to decide where to apply for the DTV HCMC/Hanoi/Vientiane, but I cannot find the link to book an appointment online in these locations. I want to check the appointment availability before I apply. I started the visa application for HCMC on [members only]/ but I cannot see where to book an appointment. Do I need to submit the application first and then book an appointment?

Thanks

Reminder to check your entry stamp right away. I just got stamped with a 60-day visa exempt while the DTV sticker is in the second page of my passport. Turned around immediately and the immigration officer corrected it after pointing out the visa. She then told me to show the visa page next time. I guess they can’t see you have a visa in the system when they scan your passport after all…
