needs to be in there the last few months.....give me a message I can help

Get to Da'nang and apply to HCMC. 3 day turnaround as long as you keep track and give them the required documents

I had a non-o work related visa and i can agree the dtv is MUCH EASIER and less hassle. Nothing but misery with the non-o and work permit crap

@Ayl ********

DTV beats Non-o by a mile (i had a working non-o) far less paperwork and hassle, couldnt agree more with this after my experience either

Yes mate, the documents vary from embassy to embassy and in all honesty from personal experience I would strongly recommend HCMC embassy Vietnam. They need 6 months of bank statements but fast very fast, only 3 days. Yes your current location would be ok in regard to passport page stamp/sticker etc. And the financial requirement, I did a combination of a savings account and current, they were cool with it.

i ask myself the same thing, its not universal, some embassies in some countries just like to throw their weight about. Had similar for British embassies too when I have had passport related or visa stuff to sort

Same situation as mine! 3 working days for HCMC workcation UK passport

Would recommend HCMC Vietnam embassy based ofd of mine and others experience (i got workaction some of my pals got soft power) would not recommend Kuala Lumphur embassy, very strict and a big headache!
