Common questions
- Is this every Vietnam visa code?
- No. This page lists only symbols that can lead to a TRC under Điều 36. Other Điều 8 symbols exist; we do not publish a thin catalogue for them until each has sourced consequences.
- Why is ĐT4 missing?
- ĐT4 is not on the TRC-eligible list. Investment paths are not interchangeable for temporary residence.
- Can retirement use one of these symbols?
- There is no retirement symbol. Long stay for retirement is not a dedicated immigration product — see the retire purpose hub.
