Classic troll response 😏

Let's not get it twisted. My orientation is being helpful in a group that's for people asking for help, so.. I'm here for that, what are you here for? 💩

@Jared *********

In most cases I'd rather be stupid than a tool. But in your case it seems maybe you enjoy being both? 🤷🏻‍♂️

What's funny here is you're just throwing shit about something that has nothing to do with you, don't you have better things to do than to shame people who are asking for help?

@Jared *********

The question may make him a fool, but your response makes you a tool.

Shaming the OP for a hypothetical ‘someone who might be overstating’ answering the question, is a bit silly when thought of that way isn’t it?

The person who asks the question gets to ask, he’s not forcing anyone to answer. Even if the question isn’t phrased perfectly, that doesn’t negate the inquiry and intention.

Use your head, and your heart.

@Jacqui ********

If that’s the case, why aren’t you asking them instead of random people on the internet 🤷🏻‍♂️

@Viola *******

Let’s not sensationalize things.. it’s been only 2 land border per year for years and years. And it’s always been written policy that people can be rejected for having too many visa, but it’s always been arbitrary and (as with many things) used as needed.

I’m confused why.. if it’s on the official website.. people still seem confused and even argue as it whether it a good idea or even needed..

Why would someone *not just have this in hand, just in case. It’s like they want their not wanting to confirmed by a random person on the internet.. worse are those who don’t simply have what’s asked, but then get angry at the IO when they’re denied. Same applies for tourist visa applications.

It’s baffling to me.. what’s the logic here..? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Goodness the reading comprehension of this group… 😅

You have nothing to worry about. When you arrive you’ll be marked as a visa exempt, which gives you 30 days. You can then get a 30 day extension (regardless of how many you need) at the immigration office which your can find on google maps, for 1900b. The second 30 days begin the day after your original 30 days.

I'm writing this from a comfy spot in Chiangmai. Here's what I can share and know to be true (based off my experience).

- American emergency passports are valid for 1 year and can get you in, out, and around most places (apparently different depending on the passport)

- There is no changing of visa's at the airport, or need to

- I showed both passports, explained the situation, they stamped the emergency with 2 months (technically only got 59 days but whatever), and the TR in the old/void passport as used

- No fuss, no drawn out process, the IO called over to someone, and the person was able to give instruction without coming over or seeing the passports

- I'll need to show both passports when asked for the duration of my stay and upon exit

- People in these groups will say whatever comes to mind, whether it seems true, is true, is valid, or relevant

- People want to be helpful, even if most have no idea what they're talking about, are going off old information, or it's literally here-say and antidotal

- Most can't be bothered or won't take the time to actually read what's actually being asked

- Thick skin and discernment is required if you're to get any real insight or guidance here

That is all. Thanks everyone 🌿

I got mine from Hanoi, and had no issues because I provided Exactly what is currently listed on their website, which was a flight To Thailand, and a Return ticket to Vietnam, along with a stack of paper that was 6 months of statements. I would imagine HCM would ask the same, and would recommend looking at their website instead of here-say. Best of luck 🌿
