4 days processing and got my DTV

Submitted Photo & passport & bank statements & Proof stamp of being in Hanoi as part of my application

Next day they asked for certificate or incorporation for the company I work for & updated bank statement showing the balance still in the account

Then nothing for 2 more days it’s really easy people shouldn’t stress key is employment & money

Boom I’m going to celebrate buying a new car in bangkok

Did anyone get approved in HCMC, with a 6 months bank statement, where they transferred the 500.000 bath 1-2 weeks before application (soft power)?

Thanks in advance 😍🙏🏼

has anyone ever been asked for further documents but then got rejected? please let me know why

Hello everyone,

I was wondering if any of you has a recent list of required documents for 1 year visa extension based of being married to Thai national (Thai wife).

I have the list for Bangkok immigration from last year with me, but looking for a recent one to compare.

Thank you 🙏

Hi,

I'm looking to stay in Thailand for 1 year (for minimum rental contract), I have a British passport.

I arrived in BKK for the first time last week and got a visa exemption, I'm going to extend this for 30days at the end of Feb, then go back to the UK at the end of March for 10 days.

When I come back to Thailand in April I will get the visa exemption again for 3 months.

After this, I'm looking to get the 6 month multiple entry tourist visa, but would this be accepted as I've already had 2 visa exemptions this year?

I have considered the DTV but as I only intend on staying for the year, I'm not sure the financial commitment and course length needed is worth it.

Just wanted to check if it would be possible to get the 6 month multiple entry tourist visa after 2 visa exemptions?

Thanks

Hi All,

I’m currently in Thailand on a TR visa but lived & worked here before so have a Thai Bank account.

I’m now looking to apply for the Thai Soft Power DTV visa this coming June.

A question can my bank statements be from my Thai account or does it have to originate from the country I’m applying from?

Hey everyone. Just arrived in Bangkok on a 30 day visa free arrival. Just found out about the DTV and it suits my situation well.

Does anyone know of any organization to assist in the process from within Thailand?

Thanks a lot!

Regarding "remote worker" category and payslips for application via Hanoi in February 2025:

Are payslips necessary to submit or best way forward? Explain situation in a cover letter?

Background: I am employed since March 2024, but for technical reasons, the company I am working for was only able to hire me as a full-time service worker in 2024. This means, in 2024, my company required me to write them invoices and they paid me my monthly salary based upon these invoices. Therefore, I do not have any payslips for 2024, but my bank statement shows the monthly salary transfer.

I am receiving my first salary with a payslip this month in January 2025.

How to deal with this situation when applying? Any suggestions welcome!

Context: I have dual nationality.

Hello! Can anyone advise if it’s better to apply for the DTV visa using my Taiwan passport rather than my U.S. passport, especially if I’m applying FROM Taiwan? I’ve been using my U.S. passport to travel in and out of Thailand, but I wonder if using my Taiwan passport might offer any advantages in this application process.

I am trying to create an account on the E-visa website. What if I put my contact number as a Thai phone number? Will that, for some reason, be not a good idea? Thanks :)
