I’m planning to apply in Ho Chi Minh. My average balance over the past 5 months has been around 500,000 THB, but I recently needed some money, so my current balance is only 200,000 THB. In a few days, I will deposit more funds to maintain over 500,000 THB again.
In this case, will there be any issues with my application?
Also, I have been here for about 5 months now. Do I need to wait exactly 6 months before applying?
I will apply this weekend for DTV Soft Act. I am in Thailand right now. Which embassy in SEA is the best and fastest right now? I am thinking of Vietnam, better Hanoi or HCMC ? Or better another country?
Hi everyone, apologies if this has been answered before, I have used the search but didnt find the info I was looking for.
DTV in Hanoi or HCM
-do you recommend to apply in Hanoi or HCM?
-required funds: I read that bank statements for 6 months must be submitted but also heard from people transferring the required 500.00THB just before. Can someone shed light on this, please? How much money does have to be in the account and for how long? Is it okay if its not in just one account?
-translation of documents: I understand that any documents submitted must be translated into English. Do they need to be notarised or is a regular translation sufficient (for my freelance contracts and invoices, for example).
i've seen mixed messages on where is better to apply from, Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi?
Can anyone give input on this?
Also, if you enter Vietnam via Ho Chi Minh could you still apply at the Hanoi embassy given it is all done and processed online? Or would you have to have arrived via the Hanoi entry port to apply there?
Hi all, I saw some past messages around it but can't find them anymore so sorry for asking what has already been asked.
I'm going to start a new job (remote) and would to apply to workation DVT. I know some embassies rejected such applications because it's a new employment relationship and they want to show 6 months of payslip from the same employer.
This is not a money issue (I have 6 months payslips from my previous employer since I'm jumping from a contract to another, and have the required balance), but just the fact that this is a new contact.
Do you know the position of HCM/Hanoi/PP/Ventiane on this topic? did anybody got a DVT approved in the region with a brand new employment contract?
