Hi, im applying at HCMC and had financial documents requested twice. im a uk passport holder and have supplied evidence of an account with well over double the requested amount. anyone had this? please help

Did anyone get approved in HCMC, with a 6 months bank statement, where they transferred the 500.000 bath 1-2 weeks before application (soft power)?

Thanks in advance 😍🙏🏼

The embassy in hcm asked for further docs. I have to wait for my bank's approval for additional docs. Do you guys know how many days we have time between that? after how many days will they cancle it?

Hello HCMC Applicants - how long did you have to wait after you submitted your application to receive updates? It has almost been 5 business days of me waiting.

Im anxious and just want to see some progress hahaah

I have often gone to HCMC for a multiple entry visa based on marriage. The last time being in August 2023.

I’m now struggling to find the information on this visa. Do they still offer it there?

Quick update: as I heard , the embassy in hcmc vietnam takes quite long. Since everyone is now rushing to this embassy because they think it's faster. So now It's been 6 or 7 days now and some people still haven't got their dtv. Just to let you guys know. Maybe Taiwan or Jakarta will be quicker now.

Hi team, I’m thinking of applying in Vietnam (HCMC) under the remote worker category. I don’t think I’ll be able to meet the deadline of in-person, so I’ll most likely apply online.

I have only just started this role recently, but have the full employment contract from an Australian based company that clearly states my work is remote. Is it common for the consulate to ask for payslips and if so, what duration of the payslips are required?

I meet every other requirement but worried about the potential proof of “x months” of payslips.

Also, any tips whatsoever would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Has anyone been called in for an in person interview for HCMC yet and if so, why?

Hi everyone,

I got to Vietnam (HCMC) on Monday and submitted my application around 10am and haven’t heard anything back yet- I know it’s probably too early to hear anything (I’m just nervous lol) but my plan was to leave next Thursday night to go back to Thailand and I’m just wondering if that’s enough time? I’ve seen a few people say it took longer in HCMC than they thought so when should I start worrying?😂

I hold a uk passport and I’m applying for workcation if that makes a difference!☺️

Thanks!

I got the DTV in HCMC as a business owner with no additional docs request!! (timeline + paperwork below)

First i want to thank everyone in the group for the collective info. You guys are awesome!

Timeline:

03/12 - Arrived in Ho chi minh at night

04/12 - Visa app sent at 6:44am

09/12 - Went into pending approval around 7pm

11/12 - Approval email at 6:24pm

* 04/12 - 11/12 - I stressed myself to the gills waiting for the verdict 😂 *

Docs submitted:

* Picture of vietnam entry stamp, hotel receipt, hotel booking, and screentshot of the official email from my hotel with the receipt and hotel contact info on it just in case

* Cover letter listing why I want to live in thailand, why I like the country, etc.

* Business approval to work in thailand given by my company to me

* Business registration with my home state in the US

* Two client contracts with names redacted

* 6 month bank statements showing over 500k baht

* Screenshots of website, youtube channel, and FB business page

* Brief explanation of my business (I am a marketing consultant)

I used a pdf merging site to combine all the docs for the respective questions.

My best recommendation is to use canva for the raw pdfs as it allows you to create a multiple page pdf by default so you can skip some of the more tedious merging.

If you have any questions, let me know

‼️TRIPLE CHECK YOUR ANSWERS AND DO NOT USE AUTOFILL FOR ANYTHING ON THE APP‼️

I even had a friend proofread my basic info like passport and DOB to be ultra sure

Good luck everyone!
