Hey guys 🙋‍♂️

I want to apply for via the business owner route in Vietnam. My company bank account is Wise and I’m not sure I can get more than a bank statement, I read here that people hand in a signed document from their bank so I’m wondering if my statement will be sufficient.

Secondly, once the visa got approved, do I have to go to the embassy in HCMC/Hanoi to pick it up or will it also be sent via mail?

Thanks in advance and good luck to all of you for to get your DTVs 🙏

Hey team, I'd like to apply for DTV now via e-visa in my home country of Australia, go on a 3 week international trip I have scheduled with the current passport in December, then return from that trip and apply for a new passport around January 2nd, then travel to Thailand in mid-February. All flights are already booked, and I can’t miss the 3-week trip in December.

Will entering Thailand on a new passport while the DTV is associated with the old passport cause an issue? I’ve previously had a Thai visa on an old passport, so I just traveled with both passports while that visa was valid. Would it be the same with the DTV even though there won’t be a physical visa in my passport?

TLDR: My passport expires in mid-June 2025 and I’d strongly prefer to apply for my DTV BEFORE I receive a new passport, so I don’t have to cancel my flight and lose money. I assume the DTV will carry over to my new passport once I get it, but can anyone confirm?

Has anyone renewed their Thai drivers license with the DTV visa? If so, what were the documents that they required when doing so.

Thanks in advance

Hi Everyone,

I am curious to know if your DTV visa is approved do you need to submit your passport to the embassy or is it an electronic visa so no need?

I ask this as I am working remotely in Papua New Guinea and would normally apply through Australia but I won’t be in Australia during this time and plan to be back with a stop over in Singapore and then on to Phuket on the 18/12/2024.

I’m an Australian expat that has lived in Thailand for the last 15 years but this is a new one for me and have always had a Non O Spouse visa multiple entries but that is no longer available.

Thanks for your help.

If your request for DTV is refused can you ask it again at the same embassy or a different embassy?

I am self-employed in Europe. To apply for a DTV I anticipate to write a cover letter that I need to do ongoing market research in Thailand with the aim of establishing a regional office in Bangkok. I cannot submit any client contract at this stage. Would this work to get the DTV? All other required documents, such as bank statement etc, I have.

Has anyone successfully done a DTV extension yet in Thailand, what was the process and cost, is it 1900thb or 10,000thb again for another 6 months
