…thanks

Thanks for the information Jesper but one last question please. I think I read quite a while ago about someone having a short term stamp mistakenly placed in their passport when they returned and didn’t realize it until they got back home. Everyone said they should have checked before they left immigration and had it corrected because without it being corrected it negated their original expiration date. When I return, will they place any type of new stamp after my original 12 month stamp and if so, I suspect it should have my original expiration date of 5 January 2026?

Hi everyone, question to ensure I don’t miss something. I have a multiple entry stamp with my 1 year extension of stay for retirement and will be leaving the country for the first time next month on a short trip to Vietnam. Is there anything I need to do or have with me before leaving and returning other than the normal exiting and return processing through immigration with my passport? Thanks for your input and expertise.

Thanks Christopher. Appreciate all the help I get from other people’s experiences. Have a great day.

, how do you approach the idea of a “tip”? Would love to know what you might say in case I need this during my next 12 month extension this December. I’m still a rookie and always looking to learn from you more experienced veterans. 😎

When everyone says “first extension” are they referring to the extension from 90 day O visa to the 12 months (totaling 15 months) when they first gat here or are they referring to the extension after the first 12 month period?
