Hi everyone

I'm currently applying for the Thai DTV visa in HCMC since 31st May and the embassy has requested an

"Official Income Tax Certificate for 2023-2025 issued by the competent authority" in Germany

The issue is that the official from the competent authority takes around 6 months to process, and I cannot wait that long or my visa application will be canceled.

I would be very grateful if you could give me some advice or guidance on this matter. I am extremely worried that this timeline issue will cause problems for my visa approval later on.

P.S. For context, I have already submitted the certified English translations of my tax documents for 2024 and 2025. These documents are my Electronic Wage Tax Certificate, which clearly state at the top that the data has already been officially transmitted to the German tax authorities.

However, the embassy is still asking for an official certificate from the authority for 2023-2025, and as mentioned, getting the official will take around 6 months. Thank you so much!
