Does anybody have experience with DTV from KL?

All documents submitted on the 26th of December last year.

Nothing has happened then, except that I was denied entry to the embassy a few times to speak to someone.

Updates:

1- 8th Jan - request for 4 documents including letter from hospital specifically requiring treatment in Thailand, full passport scan, stamp of entry, and hospital appointments.

2- 13 Jan -Hospital refuses to issue letter except in person, but with some help, was able to get one from the hospital finally.

3- 14 Jan - Submit all documents except entry stamp as Malaysian airports "autogate" entry does not have entry stamp :(

4- 14 Jan - processing pending document change just like it has started.

5- I will go to the embassy in person to prove my location (the entry stamp thing) I hope the security officer will let me in.

Good afternoon everyone,

I received a tourist visa from Guangzhou. But I am not in guangzhou anymore (long story), and I would actually like to apply for a DTV instead, even though I received today my tourist visa.

Do I need to enter thailand with this tourist visa, wait for it to expire before applying for the DTV ? Can I directly apply for the DTV instead in another country, without entering Thailand with the tourist visa that was just issued for me ?

If I do need to use this tourist visa, can I enter from a different place than the one I applied from ?

Thanks for the help I am lost in space here 😅

guys , how much is an affordable mauy thai school / center in Bangkok & how much is the fee ??

Hi everyone,

This may be an "overthinking type" of question: I'm currently in Thailand, and I wish to apply for a DTV via the e-visa website from Cambodia, where I'll be from the 14th of this month.

I've started a draft application on the website to see what supporting documents I need to provide exactly, and started inputing information there.

Will it be okay to get the application ready and just hit the "apply" button on the day I arrive in Cambodia?

Or should I just redo the full process when getting there, because of the "start date" which would be prior to me getting to cambodia?

If you have any personal experience to share it would be great 😊

Thanks 🙏

Any reports on DTV applications in Laos since they went online there? Considering Luang Prabang to apply for spouse/dependent DTVs as it is the easiest option to get to with our young baby. Also wondering how the payment system works as apparently online payment is not possible at present - would it be possible to get someone else to go and pay at the Thai embassy in Vientiane without physically going their ourselves? Any experience/info appreciated. Thanks

I contacted the hospital and tried asking for the hospital to confirm my long term treatment in Thailand which I previously had a lasik surgery with them back in 2023 DEC. However they couldn’t provide the documents for me and stated that my case was by appointments only. Is there any other ways?

Hello. I'm about to go for the DTV visa. Soft power option, most likely may thai (it's been almost 30 years since I did any so maybe cooking is the better option 😂😂).

I'm based in Pattaya does anyone know which are the registered schools in the area and cost if available.

Next question is where is likely to be the fastest place to get the visa. I'm currently in Thailand and would happily fly to most places. But hopefully not for an extended amount of time. I expect this bit is tricky as everywhere seems to of gone evisa very recently and so waiting times may be unknown. I guess the pace with the last questions asked would also be good, although I don't see a problem with fulfilling the requirements. I have the money in the bank for over 6 months, if income is asked for which it shouldn't be I can show that also.

Thanks all for any information

Since I have all my funds in my company accounts, I need to transfer to my personal account, and therefor are not able to present a 3 or 6 months statement…

So my option is to apply from an embassy, that accepts the current bank statement.

I am going for the digital nomad / workcation option.

💰 What embassy accepts 500K as only CURRENT balance (digital nomad, NOT soft power option)?

Anyone have experience with this? (Not the soft power option, bc they usually accept the current statement only, from what I can see).

I would prefer to apply from Asia.

Thank you all for all your amazing help and advice ☺️🙏🏼

I already have an account with krunsgri

I need to get a new bank card but im now back in Thailand on DTV visa

Do you think if I go into branch to get a new bank card….they could limit try and cancel my account or even ask me to take out insurance?

Can i ask how can we count for 90days if we get Dtv visa? Someone said it count from a day when i arrived in Thailand.And also what kind of documents i need to prepare? If I go do abroad and come back, do I also need to count back from when i arrived back?
