Hi everyone,

Does anyone have information on where we can apply for the DTV in November? It seems that most Thai embassies are implementing e-visa systems, which might make the process longer.

Thank you in advance for any insights.

I just applied at the embassy in Hanoi, and the woman at the counter said my bank statements might not be accepted

She said other peoples bank statements show lots of transactions. But because my money was in a savings account for ages - and because I only get statements for that account every six months - the bank statement only showed when there was a transaction... which only happened once in august

I had to write a quick letter explaining that it was an official bank statement. And that the lack of activity is because it's not a current account

Just wondering if anyone else has had something similar? and what they did about it?

I got on the phone to my bank (halifax, UK) and they basically said there's nothing else they can provide other than the bank statement itself

Hi everyone, will fly to Taipei next week. I just want to make a recap of what i’ll need with me for DTV:

- Employment letter

- Employer authorization to work remotely from Thailand, stating that i won’t work illegally in thailand and have Thai clients.

- 6 months Bank statement with 500k minimum (I had it for all the 6 months). I guess I’ll have to print it? Or can I give them a PDF copy?

- Passport pictures

Am I missing anything else ?

Thankss

With DTV will it be possible to go in/out as many times as w we wish ?

Also it means we will get as many stamps as re-entry ? 20 times a year will be crazy stampings

just failed. The embassy in Vientiane requires the money to stay in the account longer. I have only left the money in the newly opened account in Thailand for more than half a month. and the account has only been opened for more than a month. I will leave the money in the account and try again in 4 months. I have enough cash and an apartment in Thailand but they do not care.

Has anyone successfully contacted the Thai embassy in London? If so what number and email address and best time to contact.

We’ve sent 2 emails now and received no response and can’t seem to get through on the phone either 🤷‍♀️

(Repost for clarity) I saw online that some people applied for a DTV on the evisa website while being in their home country but couldn't get their visa on time and then entered Thailand on a 60-day exemption stamp. Then while in Thailand their visa got approved and they just exited the country and re-entered to activate their visa. Won't the immigration officer check the visa date of issue? Anyone went through this process ?

Hello I just got the necessary documents from both of the school that I am leaving and joining later.

What form do I need to fill close the ED visa I currently have and open a new one. If possible I wanna do it without the border run. My new school tell me to do both process on the same day

Australian citizen, when applying for DTV, can funds be in bank and superannuation account. My super is readily available and can be accessed online with payment in 3 days. Thanks

EDIT: I have emailed the Embassy in Canberra to ask the question, will let you know response.
