What activities can you do in Ho Chi Minh City while waiting for a visa?
Alessandro ***********
HCMC is decent. Take some time to get to know it like a local. Instead of a tourist. There’s so much amazing food. 🫡

Alessandro ***********
Dtv return ticket isn’t required.

Don’t need to fill it in. Or just enter an ‘intended’ flight number.

Can I use my Binance account to show the required 500,000 THB for my visa, or must it be in a bank account?

Will staying 180 days in Thailand and doing border runs violate immigration rules under the new regulations?
Alessandro ***********
It’s actually surrounding extensions isn’t it. And therefore entry stamps. But I thought the hoo-haa was about the extensions.?

Do I need to do a 90-day report for my DTV visa while living in Bangkok, and where should I exit to avoid issues?
Alessandro ***********
Nice answer. ,

Though technically not possible to do a report online. We have to leave every 180 days. 1’st report always in person.
