Self employed and applying in Ho Chi Minh

I have bank statements, client contracts, paid invoices, etc.

Do i need to submit my business registration and/or tax ID?

And is there any other documentation that can give me an advantage for quick approval?

If both are needed, i can submit, but i need to make sure I have every single doc to make this smooth as possible as most of my life is currently in Thailand since I've been living here a few months hahah

When does the Yangon embassy add new appointment slots?

I’ve been trying to book an appointment for a DTV visa at the Thai embassy in Yangon for over a week now but it’s always full. I’m checking about 5 times a day. First I thought they added new times at midnight but that wasn’t the case. It seems like they’re opening up new slots between 1 am and 8 am? Hoping someone can confirm.

Thank you.

Hello there. I am in the process of planning my travel to apply for the DTV visa. I am currently in Thailand and planning to travel around the middle of January. I am looking for some guidance on the countries in the region that will have the quickest turn around time. I understand there may be some changes to the in person vs e-visa that may affect wait times in the New Year. Is there anyone who can shed some light on preferable destinations?

Thank you 🙏

Hi Everyone.

Is there any issues you have to face by immigration if you go through land border with DTV.

I am planning to go from Cambodia(Poi Pet) to Thailand(Khlong Luek) border.

I have heard some people have to wait for a long time at immigration and some people have to pay extra charges.

Hello,

Has anyone here applied for Spousal visa and got rejected. I'm quite nervous before applying as the fee is non-refundable, so I want to learn from other's experiences.

Thank you for sharing.

Arriving in BKK shortly, with a return flight 73 days later.

We are intending to get a 60 day stay using the visa exemption programme (Irish citizens) and immediately apply for a 13 day extension at a local immigration office. We have the visa extension form and have completed it.

If there are any issues, we can fly to SIN for a day or two.

Are there likely to be any issues at immigration in BKK on our first arrival in the Kingdom?
