Getting DTV from the Philippines

I currently left Thailand and I’m about to head to the Philippines, which people say it’s a good choice getting the DTV visa done.

I found a gym in Thailand already that will do the DTV with me.

Now my question, can I apply online, don’t do I have to go to a embassy?

I want to skip Manila and go to some other small places.

Of course they want prove that I’m really in the Philippines so they might want to see a hotel reservation, but how do I do when traveling arround and not staying at one place?

Did anyone do the DTV from the Philippines? Any experiences and knowledge is welcome, I’m going there not really knowing what I’m doing 😮‍💨🙆🏼‍♂️
Answer summary
A user is seeking guidance on applying for the DTV visa from the Philippines after leaving Thailand. They want to know if the application can be done online instead of visiting an embassy in Manila, and how to manage hotel reservations given their plan to travel around different locations. Responses from the community indicate that the application can be completed online by choosing an embassy and that no local bank account is necessary, as international accounts are acceptable. However, proof of stay, such as hotel reservations, remains a concern.

When I was looking I reached out to dtvthaivisa and they answered all my questions I had and then I did everything myself. But what they were saying about Manila is that ur only required to show 1 months bank statement there. But hit them up about any questions u have n do it all yourself. I have the info if u can’t look it up n find it.
