You do have accommodation. You’re renting a condo.

Honestly I doubt they’ll even ask you where you’re staying.

This is the very thing the DTV is designed to address. As long as all your documents are in order, you should be fine.

TM30 registers your location with immigration. When you need to report the fact you’ve been in the country for 90 consecutive days (90 day report) you use the immigration office that serves the location you registered with the TM30.

That’s the link between the two things.

I’ve used AirBnB places that do register TM30 and some that don’t.

I’ve also used licensed hotels that should, but don’t.

If you’re renting long term, one of the requirements on your checklist should be TM30 registration.

It should be done within 24 hours of your arrival in that property and the latest online method of registration that your landlord will probably use only allows access to the filing for a short period of time (7 days maybe?) so once your landlord has done it, get a copy asap, scan it, keep it, print it out when you need it.

So how, exactly, will this bank prevent people from sending you money?

I use my Bangkok Bank account all the time and when a group of friends go out, if we’re splitting the bill, sometimes I’ll pay it then my friends use my QR code to send me their contribution.

I don’t think the bank could stop that if they even wanted to, which they don’t.

If it doesn’t get spin time,see if you can extend your Vietnam visa, or get another one.

You would be reporting the fact that you have been in the country for 90 consecutive days. So if you weren’t, you wouldn’t.

Anonymous participant They may know more than we think, but they certainly don’t know that visas can’t be cancelled otherwise they wouldn’t have asked you to do that.

What they’re asking is impossible.

They don’t know what they’re talking about. You can’t cancel a visa. Reply to the email telling them you’ve done it, see what happens.

it’s no effort really. I don’t feel burdened by the number of words in the comment either. They were all freely available. Easily typed. My fingers just seem to fly across the screen!

I suppose I could choose to express myself through the medium of dance, but the logistics aren’t favourable. 😊
