Hi we are visiting Thailand in November this year. We are coming as tourists to look at retiring next year. My question is would we need to fill out the new travel visa that's being put into place. Will we be questioned about not having one when we arrive in November. Just preparing ourselves as its been 5 years since we last traveled. Thankyou

METV London processing time. Applied via the website on Tuesday 17th September 0700 hours. Approved Sunday 22nd September 1930 hours. That’s 6 days, well pleased with that.

Info uploaded; PDF showing return flight from London and also two return flights during this stay to other Asian countries. PDF showing all accommodation booked via Agoda. PDF showing utility bill and TV licence bill.

Note that when I made the payment the website showed an error, however when I checked the visa card statement at my end, I noticed that the payment was pending and actually it did go through, so just be aware that this could happen to you and don’t panic if you get an error message.

Next step is to set up a GoFundMe website to pay for this lot - joking.

Has anyone had any experience with immigration getting dates wrong? I posted my 90 day report as it was due September 10th, just received the return slip saying that they had received it but the date for next report states October 10th. My extension of stays is until June 2025

Sorry to keep bringing this up like a broken record but does anyone know when you can get a non o marriage visa multiple entry these days I heard savannakhet is the only place but even then I don't wanna catch a bus through issan if it's not a definite also thanks again

So have anyone tried getting it working with onlyfans? I'm confused about the portifólio they ask 😬

Can it be possible to apply with russian company job contract?

Dutch DTV approved

Just sharing processs for any fellow Dutch folks and hope it help anyone to navigate their insecurities and hope in approvals.

And Thank you to Thailand for always welcoming foreigners, unlike EU and other countries :-)

**

Processs**

E-Visa, applied online with embassy The Hague Netherlands. Do not require or need to go embassy in person, but they do require you to be in NL during when you submit the DTV visa and during the process, just in case you need to go embassy.

if you’re abroad during the application first day of visa submission, you will be rejected for sure.

I was rejected in July as I was still in Asia, because I thought it will take weeks and apply first only and fly back NL later to collect.

**First time: rejected 15 July 2024

**because I wasn’t in the same country of the embassy (Netherlands)

Second time : Approved 18 Aug 2024

Submitted : Wed 14 Aug (by online eVisa)

Approved: Sun 18 Aug (by email)

Request for additional docs: Yes.

Background profile:

* Dutch national

* official resident with work visa in Singapore

* solo DTV application

* I have a Pte Ltd (BV) company registered in Singapore since 2016

* I am sole director and sole employee

* Company is in retail/wholesale trading and consultancy.

Documents submitted during the first and second DTV application:

* passport bio page

* photo

* Flight ticket

* Proof of living address. I used my bank statement.

* Copy of Directors Resolution stating I’m working remotely from abroad as per 2023 in which I myself have outlined: authorization, responsibilities, communication, compliance to local law, review and termination.

* Properly stamped with company stamp and signature (in Asia an “official” company ink stamp and signature hold a lot of value and authenticity, though legally it doesnt. A signature only on a company letterhead is not considered official in most asian countries

* Bank statement from Wise, the amount I’ve recently transferred just a month ago before DTV submission. Just to make sure it’s all on one bank account for their convenience.

* If you use wise bank, get the signed statement report from wise desktop. Via the mobile App is not available. It has a real stamp and signature

Additional documents requested after submission:

* Proof of Company business registration certificate

* All pages of my passport including empty ones. This was abit of tech hassle as they only allowed max 3MB upload since I have a business passport with double amount the pages than a regular Dutch passport

* First submision in July: they only requested the stamped pages in my passport, after I submitted , they requested all pages of my passport.

* Second submission in August; they requested all pages immediately (this may have to do with change of rules, my first time submission was merely 2 weeks after they announced DTV

* My passport shows proof : a lot of stamps and visas as I travel incredible a lot for work .. entry and exit stamps almost every month throughout Asia and Europe.

Note:

Each embassy in each country is different.

I could have applied in Singapore as I am working there, but they said I have to apply in person and bring copy printed papers when collecting and will take 3-4 weeks. Singapore will start using eVisa online by October 2024.

Hey I have a question, I was in Thailand about 6 months ago when you still only got 30 days on arrival. I then extended for 30 days, I'm back here now and got 60 days on arrival can I extend 30 days once more or is that not possible?

DTV & DOCUMENT TRANSLATION 🇮🇹🇬🇧

Hi everyone! 😊

Do the documents required for the DTV have to be issued in English, or at least with a certified translation? 🙏🏼

In Italy it is almost impossible to get documents in English from public offices (tax certificate, marriage certificate for my wife) and a sworn translation would be exorbitantly expensive (I would be better off getting the Elite visa at this point 😅)… while with private institutions (bank for the banking status etc) I would have no problems.

Do you think that if some of the documents were in Italian and I provided a translation of those pages (easily verifiable, they are all personal data) it could work? 🤞
