Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share my experience applying for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Jakarta. I submitted my application on Monday morning, February 24th, and it first showed “pending checking documents.” By Wednesday morning, February 27th, the status changed to “pending approval,” and later that evening, it was approved.

I applied under the Soft Power (Muay Thai) category with Wildcat Muay Thai, and Meaw Boonpradub was super helpful in getting all the necessary documents together quickly (definitely recommend).

Documents I Submitted:

• Financial Proof – A 6-month bank statement from a foreign bank in USD. I had the required amount sitting in my account for the past six months, but I’ve heard that this isn’t always mandatory. Along with that, I also included:

• A screenshot of my account balance from my banking app.

• A screenshot of the exchange rate for that day.

• All three were combined into a single PDF file.

• Muay Thai Documents – Provided by Wildcat Muay Thai.

• Proof of Location – A picture of the Indonesian Visa Stamp in my passport.

• Scanned Passport

• Visa Photo

For accommodation in Thailand, I just listed where I was staying, but they didn’t ask for any proof.

Thanks everyone for all the information regarding the process!

P.S. If you’re planning to apply in Jakarta, you don’t actually have to be there—you just need to be somewhere in Indonesia. I didn’t realize this beforehand, and let’s just say Jakarta is not for beginners !

Hey everybody, I want to ask if somebody has exited Thailand during their 6 month stay and when they come back? for example I entered in December and my stamp is until June. now, if I go for Cambodia trip for two weeks and come back, do they put a new stamp restarting a new six month? I don't think they would but want to confirm it.

Hey! Question:

Has anyone gone with Muay Thai Fever gym for their Soft Power activity for the DTV visa?

What’s been your experience?

Hello thanks for any help

We are waiting for our marriage documents to arrive any day now Then we will marry and I will get the appropriate marriage Visa. My problem is my 60 days and now my 30 day extension is up on March 6. I've did this before in the past with no problems. That was before the new E-Visa. Crossing into Laos and staying the night. How hard is it and what's the procedure to receive the new Visa

I'm American and my soon to be wife is Thai

Hello. I am interested in the Thailand retirement visa, I know the details, it just seems a bit complicated and now it is also getting quite difficult to open bank accounts. I am considering getting a Cambodia retirement visa for a year, and after I open it, I can get a bank account quite easily. I may do this and then try to get the Thailand retirement visa when things get a bit easier. I am wondering if I might have difficulty getting a Thai retirement visa if I also have a similar one in my passport from Cambodia. Might this raise eyebrows from Thai immigration staff? Anybody have any experience with this? Thanks.

So being that I work sales for my friends company can’t he just write a letter stating I can work remotely 🤔

When submitting applications for DTV soft power in HCMC, has the embassy ever requested applicants to provide payslips and bank statements?

Hello everyone, I am new here and I have a question relating to DTV visa.

One of the possibilities to get this Visa is a participation on a soft power activities ,

such as Muay Thai courses, Thai cooking classes, sports training, medical treatment, seminars or music festivals.

My question is:

what is a participation on medical treatment? Does this mean you get the medical treatment or you learn that medical treatment?

I am confused because in all other activities like Muay Thai courses, Thai cooking classes, sports training you will act as a learner.

I am thankful for any clarification.

Thank you

Or does it have to be from a brick-and-mortar traditional bank like Bank of China, Bank of America etc?
