I am an Indian passport holder. Can I go to Thailand Visa free for 60 days and then go to Laos or Hanoi to apply for DTV visa?
I heard I can only apply for DTV visa from my home country. Is it true or false for an Indian?
In case I can apply outside of my home country, Do I still need to get the latest bank statement stamped from my bank along with the financial reference letter?
What are the other documents I need to prep from within my home country?
PS. I will be applying through the workcation route and my goal is to train Muay thai.
TLDR : Answer Summary
An Indian passport holder can enter Thailand visa-free for 60 days and can apply for a DTV visa from countries like Laos or Vietnam, not just from India, contradicting the belief that applications must be made from the home country. Financial documentation requirements, such as having a recent bank statement, may vary by embassy, and while it's advisable to check with the specific embassy, many do not mandate stamped statements. Additionally, when applying under the workcation or soft power options, applicants should prepare documentation such as proof of training enrollment and financial statements to support their visa application.
