How do I prove the date & time the photos of the passport were taken ?

If anyone has had experience please advice, thanks

Requested documents :

“Please provide the latest copy of your full passport, including all pages (even the empty ones). If you have a Temporary Resident Card (TRC), kindly submit it along with the passport. The photos must show the date and time they were taken.”

Hi,

I've just submitted my DTV application in Vientiane. I understand there is no online payment option. Can I just go to the Embassy without an appointment. I have attempted to figure this out online. Any input would be helpful. Many thanks.

I entered Thailand with a non 0 Immigration marriage visa. I need an extension for at least 1 month.

Before I had an rented apartment so I needed a copy of the owners blue book and id from the owner and a lease contract.

If I stayed in a hotel wat do I need instead of those papers.

Success! Hanoi 6.5 Working days. Workation. Freelancer.

Dec 1 - Applied late afternoon

Dec 2 - Changed Pending Documents Check to Pending Approval

Dec 9 - Approved

I did a thorough search in the group to see what "additional documents" Hanoi has requested in the past, and made sure to include them all. That's why I think I got no "additional documents request".

Pretty straightforward process! If you're in Hanoi highly recommend Egg Coffee at Cafe Giang and Bun Cha at Bun Cha Ta Hanoi.

Good luck!

Hey everyone, just wondering if I have to be in the same city as the embassy when applying for the DTV. For example can I be in DaNang while applying through the HCMC Thai embassy/consulate?

Hey everyone. I'm in Thailand on a DTV and I was wondering what the process is of buying a motorcycle. I've been renting for a few months, but planning on buying one for myself. Do I need a resident certificate? Insurance? Registration? I've seen a lot of mentions of "green book" too. Anything I should be vary or mindful of?

Thank you krub 🙏
