My husband & I just got our DTVs approved in Hanoi. I wanted to highlight something for people who got married in the EU & received a "Formule B" international marriage certificate. Make sure it's visible that the document is already in English!
The writing is small so it seems it can be easily overlooked. They initially sent us a document request for translation to English & notarization. However, I figured that must have been a mistake. So I wrote a short cover letter explaining that it's already in English, highlighted all the English text on the document & uploaded that. A day later, my husband's application was switched to "pending approval" & 5 days later it was approved.
Just a tip so no one panics & tries to get a document translated & notarized that's already in English š„²

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user shares their experience of getting a DTV approved in Hanoi, highlighting an important detail for those who received an international marriage certificate in English. They advise that if your certificate is already in English, ensure it's clearly visible and highlight the English text to avoid unnecessary translation and notarization requests, as they successfully did with their application.
