Hi everyone. I plan to apply for the DTV visa at the end of July/ start of August. However, I'm a bit worried about the 500k baht.

Right now I've got 350k in my bank account, but won't receive the rest until July 20th ish. Will it still be ok if I technically just have the 500k 1.5 weeks before applying? Or you would advise that I gather the funds a bit quicker / delay my application date a bit?

I have used the search function of course but just want more definite confirmation. Thanks for all your help and support on this group!

Applied online at Vietnam.

Submitted on 9 April. Asked for extra documents last week. Until today 24 April still asking for additional documents like every page of my passport and extra passport photo.

My entry stamp is only valid till 7 May. What happens if it is not approved by 7 May? Anyone got into this situation before?

Edit: I found a lot of info already.. but which city is nicer to visit, is my remaining question..

Who would like to share their experience with application in Vietnam?

Which city would you recommend?

How long was the process?

Any peculiarities, that I should know of?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

I've been having some challenges this week applying for the DTV in Ho Chi Minh City.

Yesterday they asked for "Provide passport FULL BOOK including EMPTY PAGES." So I took a picture of every single page in my passport, and uploaded them one by one (since the site doesn't allow multiple uploads. Today they respond: "Read our request CAREFULLY before submit. Provide passport FULL BOOK from page 1 to 52. If no, your visa application will be REJECT." No information on what was wrong / missing.

Yesterday they asked for "Provide your CV/ Portfolio." Well I'm a software engineer and I mostly work on backend projects which are hard to put into a portfolio. So I uploaded my Resume detailing my 25 years of industry experience as well as a public presentations I've given, screenshots from applications I'm working on, and a patent application (with my name on in) from a previous employer years ago. Today they respond with: "Provide "YOUR" CV/ portfolio. If no, your visa application will be REJECT."

Has anyone experienced something similar? It sounds like I only get one more shot at this before they reject my application.

Hello, I hope you are well,

I'm thinking about getting my visa in Vietnam, Hanoi. Can anyone tell me how many months they requer the bank statement?

thank you.

Thank you everyone for you help. I just got my email and was approved in Vietnam (HCMC). The process took about 10 days to process because they asked for addtional documents + a weekend.

1. Probably obvious but make sure your bank statements have your name on them. My first ones had just my account number so I had to get the bank to send me ones with my name too.

2. I included the payments in my bank accounts originally but they wanted the pay slips so I sent them my electronic payment slips. I compiled them all in a google doc with dates and exported it as a pdf.

I ended up adding things in google docs with an explanation. Had to use a PDF compressor to make sure everything fit into the 3mb requirements but in the end it worked well.

Good luck everyone.

Hi all ☺️. i am planning my trip to Vietnam to apply for the DTV visa. Should i only consider Hanoi or there are other cities where i can go to do the same?

My wife and are in Danang Vietnam and we are soon going to apply for the DTV. Here it's all done online.

So my wife is my dependent. and I understand I first need to apply for myself only and get the visa, and only then she can apply, right?

So this my question:

Do I need to specify in my own initial application that my wife is going to apply after me as my dependent, and to already supply them with our marriage certificate and sponsorship letter confirming that I am her indeed her sponsor?

Or all that stuff needs to wait until only after I get my visa and she submits her own application?

Many thanks
