I noticed a few cases of Malaysian or Singaporean successfully applied for DTV beyond Singapore.

Even when I contacted the Thai immigration office, to date their messenger agents had no idea regarding the policy of Singapore passport holders CANNOT apply for DTV yet.

When I inquired the Royal Thai Embassy in Cambodia, they advised me to apply online with them but I have to enter their boundary before doing so.

I'm a Singapore passport holder and is currently living in Singapore. Thus I've applied online with both Embassy in Kuala Lumpur and Consular in Penang, both are now pending for document check.

Refer to the email replied from the Royal Thai Embassy in Singapore as shown in the picture, they mentioned that all Singaporeans, Malaysians and Tunisians are not entitled to receive any DTV in Singapore at the moment.

I would like to double confirm are there any Singaporean who have already successfully achieved the DTV in Malaysia or Cambodia? Waived visa fee?
Answer summary
The discussion addresses the challenges faced by Singapore passport holders in applying for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV). Despite the Royal Thai Embassy in Singapore stating that Singaporeans cannot apply for the DTV there, some individuals report success in obtaining the visa from other countries like Malaysia and Cambodia. The requirement is to be physically present in the country of the embassy for the application, and the visa fee may be waived in certain cases.

Hi, Singaporean here. Got my DTV 2 days ago. After emailing and calling Singapore Thai embassy, Singaporeans cannot apply in SG due to ongoing bilateral agreements apparently between SG and Thailand. Hence we can only apply at embassies other than SG. Got mine in Hanoi, within 4 working days.Visa fee was waived.

To apply via Malaysia or Cambodia, you are correct, you need to physically be in Malaysia or Cambodia to apply. Tunsia? Why would the visa fee be waived?
