Edit: People who have real documents but want to try by themselves. Please read this. I went to embassy and learnt 500k should be in account for 3 months or should be stable. Not ok with ending balance 500k even though it is your real money.

I have just got rejected mail in Hanoi. I believe I attached every documents. I have sent the clarification email and am waiting for the reply.

1. Myanmar Nationality

2. Australia based company

3. Submitted company registration, employment contract, remote permission, Company profile, resume, portfolio link, cover letter indicating that I am not working for Thailand company, payslips 3 months, Wise transfer email, Company website.

4. Vietnam Entry Stamp, Hotel booking

5. Bank statement 6 months with Ending balance 500k

My question is should I resubmit in Hanoi or better apply in HCMC?

I'm planning to apply for my visa through Hanoi office in a couple weeks. Wondering if anyone was called in for an interview? I would like to leave the city if possible. I'll be applying under soft power- muay thai.

DTV Approved today in Hanoi for digital nomad/remote working. Thank you Tod Daniels for answering some of my questions🙏🏾.

My experience: applied in Laos 6 months ago and wasn’t aware at the time about having the funds in your account for at least 3 months. After a long and terrible bus ride to Laos from Chiang mai, was denied in a few seconds in Laos and window slammed in my face 😂. From there I waited 6 months and let my funds sit. Arrived in Hanoi May 14 and applied 14th. 15th recieved email requesting additional documents: (image of page in passport showing stamp into Vietnam and documents showing company’s business registration. Went to the embassy in Hanoi to try to give them an additional document I forgot to attach on the visa website but offices were closed 15-19th. During those day status was pending approval. Approved today 22nd. Fast turnaround. Their website when uploading documents isn’t the best, spent a full day trying to find the best way to compile my PDFs together and converting them into jpgs, and making sure everything was in order and clear before submitting application. Provided previous most recent bank statements going back 6 months (excluding transaction details). Only the important information: beginning and ending balances of each month. Signed employment contracts (forgot to attach the page of my contract that laid out the details of my work so I only submitted the agreement pages. Signed lease agreement of my condo in Thailand. Had many other documents prepared in a folder in case I was asked for interview, I recommend this, but was not necessary in my case. Thanks for everyone sharing their experience in this group has helped with my experience. Good luck everyone

If I am staying at da nang

So is it Hanoi or sigon embassy?

Hello. I am planning to go to Hanoi in June to apply for the DTV. I believe I have everything I need. Can anyone tell me how long it should take and how I should apply (in person or online) for the fastest decision? Thank you!

Hey everyone! 🙋‍♂️ Has anyone applied for the Soft Power Visa at the Hanoi Embassy and had it processed in *one go*? 🌏 What documents did you submit? Would love to hear your experience!

Hello everyone. Just wanted to say a big thank you to this amazing group and everyone who has shared such helpful information here.

We successfully got our DTV approved through the Soft Power Muay Thai application.

We applied in Hanoi, and the whole process took about a week. To our surprise, we even received the approval email on Sunday.

Really appreciate all the tips and support from this community. Thank you so much!

Hello all, please help🙏 Applied from Vietnam. Hanpi Embassy. UK passport, self-employed, UK business owner. visa cancelled: wrong personal info. Is it because of the middle name? Applied and inserted the middle name everywhere, however, the Companies House, Tax Return, Bank Statements have only initials, not full name like in the passport. I wonder if this is the problem?

I’m planning to apply for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) from Hanoi and had a question regarding the financial requirement. Specifically, does anyone know how long the 500,000 THB needs to be in the bank account before applying? Has anyone here been approved with the funds in their account for less than a month? Thanks 🙏
