ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi everyone, 

I'm looking forward to apply for the DTV.

I'm on a long travel and just came back to my home country from UK. 

This puts me in a situation of question - how do I prove where I am? 

Because I go through auto gate, there's no passport stamp of entering the country nor exiting UK(nor entering)... 

Do you have any tips? 

Thank you in advance and wishing you all the best of luck as well!

I don't know how things are there in the uk, but here in taiwan it's mandatory to go to the immigration and get "2. CERTIFICATE OF ENTRY AND EXIT DATES from NATIONAL IMMIGRATION AGENCY (Validity 1 month)", that's also for the locals
