Should I go to the embassy where I applied for the DTV visa even though it doesn't have the location?

It doesn't say where, but should I go to the embassy where I applied for my DTV visa?

場所が書いてないけど、DTVビザを申請した大使館に行けばよいのでしょうか?

My experience using a Thai visa issued in Jakarta

I applied for my Thai visa while in Bali, through the Thai Embassy in Jakarta. The process there was a bit slow — they asked for extra documents before approving it, but once I submitted everything, it went through fine.

About a month later, when I arrived in Phuket earlier today,, immigration took me aside to a holding area. They said they didn’t have the documents that Jakarta had received, and asked me to send them again. I had to dig through my computer and email them to a personal Gmail address (not an official government one), which felt a bit odd.

After about 15 minutes, one of the liasons came back and said okay, then told me I could go through immigration. They also had me fill out another short form with general information.

Overall, it wasn’t a big problem, but it definitely wasn’t as smooth as other people make it sound. My impression is that Phuket immigration might not be very familiar with this particular type of visa, or they just want to put on a front of being tough.

Hey everyone, the Vienna embassy asked me for proof of accommodation for a 1 month, which is totally fine. However, I made a small mistake and sent only proof for two weeks. 🥲 I misread their requirements. Will they ask me again? Or should I try to contact them via email and send them additional 2 weeks of accommodation? Does anyone have a similar situation? Thank you

Hey folks, I’ve been looking into medical insurance to cover me while in Thailand on a DTV. I was hoping to get something that would cover me for years with guaranteed renewals. But, I’ve been told that the local Thai insurers can’t cover me for long term health cover, because I’m officially a tourist, they can only offer travel insurance.

Seems the only option is the big international (expensive) providers.

Has anyone had any luck with long term medical cover?

What’s required for extension at Patong Immigration office? Typically I’ve found this office to be very relaxed with their requirements on things, but not sure when it comes to DTV.

Hey everyone 👋

I’m a UK citizen and own a US LLC, looking to apply for the Digital Nomad (DTV) visa.

Does anyone know a good agency that can assist with the process? Preferably one that’s responsive and trustworthy 🙏

Also, quick question — my LLC income goes into a business account with Mercury, and I don’t pay myself personally into my UK account.

Would that be an issue for the DTV application?
