Successful DTV last week - family of 5

DTV type: digital nomad

Location of application: Taipei

Sunday 16 March

* evening arrive with my wife and kids in Taiwan

* already had online info entered in, submitted my DTV application

Monday 17 March

* 9:30am reply from Thai office. They want some sort of official entry/exit certification. I research this and read that you're supposed to be a Taiwan resident in order to get it. Panic begins to set it.

* 11:00am I think all hope is lost, but decide to go to the Taiwan Immigration Agency and just see what happens.

* 2pm after a long queue, I successfully obtain the required certification doc. I'm in shock but happy. I upload it and resubmit my DTV application.

* 7:30pm DTV approved. I add this to dependent applications and turn them all in.

Tuesday 18 March

* First thing in the morning: I bring my wife and kids to the Taiwan Immigration Agency and get their certificates.

* Mid-Morning: As expected, Thailand replies wanting these certificates. I upload them immediately and resubmit all dependent applications.

Wednesday 19 March

* 6pm DTVs approved for dependents.

Thursday morning we flew to Thailand.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A family of five successfully applied for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) while in Taiwan. The process began with the father submitting their application online. After being requested to provide an official entry/exit certification, he visited the Taiwan Immigration Agency, where he managed to obtain the needed document. Following this, he resubmitted the application and received approval for both himself and his dependents in a matter of days. The experience highlights the importance of being prepared and following up promptly with required documentation.

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.
