How can I successfully apply for a DTV visa from Ankara, Turkey, and what documents are needed?

@Russel *******

I’m not sure… it would be best to ask that on your own post, for other UK citizens to answer.

I was also living in Georgia when I applied! To show location proof I gave a photo of the passport stamp, my housing lease agreement, and a photo of my fiscal code document. For banking, I think that they ask for 3 months, but I provided 6. I also just gave them the first page of my monthly statement, where it showed the total amount, and not the itemized statements. I hope that helps, good luck!

Sabri Can Çetindağ no, one week each. I took a while to submit my daughter’s application (my application didn’t say anything about my daughter or having a dependent, so mine was processed well ahead of my arrival date - 3 weeks early in fact)

Sabri Can Çetindağ I applied about a month before my arrival date. After I got mine, I applied for my daughter’s and hers arrived a week before the arrival date.

I applied online from Georgia, I don’t think they allow you to go in person (not sure though). They send you a digital visa by email when it’s done - no sticker in the passport. It took me 5 business days to get my visa, and it took 6 business days for my daughter to get her dependent visa.

Yiba Capul I’m not sure what you mean by a lot of those questions. I was living and working remotely from Georgia, so my application went through Ankara. I showed them my Georgia stamp, housing rental contract and Georgian fiscal number (for taxes). I submitted for application: 1. Letter explaining why I wanted the visa, and that I would follow Thai law, respect the culture, not have any Thai clients/income etc. 2. Screenshots of my work laid out in a mini portfolio and links to online work 3. My LLC business registration documents (I only registered it a month before applying) 4. 6 months of personal bank statements (I only showed the balance statements, no transactions).

I had heard from others not to, unless on a ED visa

I would definitely not use Thai bank accounts, as you can’t have an account as a DTVer and it doesn’t reflect well in your application.
