Hello

Unfortunately my application has been rejected in Hanoi

DTV Soft power thai cooking 6month course with House of Taste Bangkok

French passport

Applied 13/08

Pending approval 14/08

Rejected 20/08

No other documents requested simply rejected.

Provided :

4month current account bank statement with more than 500k baht and saving account with more than 4 millions baht

Proof of location in Hanoi (booking, stamp, google maps shot, payment receipt)

School document (DBD, Proof of payment, class example and stuff)

Since they don't provide any explanation on why they reject your application I wonder what's my next best move.

Either I try to apply from HCMC/Jarkata embassy or I maybe change course to Muay Thai, go with an agent ?

With Bangkok bank freezing bank accounts for lodgement and withdrawals at the moment till accounts can be verified in original branch. This will also stop funds being transferred for seasoning so could affect future visa applications. As not everyone is in Thailand at the moment and may not be possible to me make it in time.

90 day report - When leaving Thailand (with a re-entry stamp) I was told that you don’t report again until 90 days after your return date. Is this true?

Hello Group.

I opened a bank account with Bangkok Bank and deposited the 800,000 Baht into the account, which they told me I had to do. They’re also pestering me to open a savings account and deposit a further 100,000 Baht. I initially thought they were advertising me that any amount over 100,000 Baht attracted a 4% interest rate, so I said oh great. But have since realised, it’s a secondary account and I’ve now told them I don’t wish to open a second savings account. I’ve since had a few phone calls asking me to go in to make the deposit.

I’m assuming this is purely a secondary account and will not cause any issues with my bank account I’ve just opened ? I’ve been told I must make a deposit within 30 days of opening the initial account. The language barrier has made it a tad difficult to understand exactly what the process is. Any advice please ?

Thanks v much.

Hello!

I applied for a DTV VISA but I got a TR VISA for 6 months. I don't know why?

Is there someone like me?

And do I need to leave after 2 months or can extend in Thailand ?

Dear friends, I would like to ask if the visa application fee can be refunded if the DTV visa application in Vientiane is rejected?
