🇹🇭 THAILAND 5-YEAR DTV VISA APPROVED! 🇹🇭

Happy to share that my Thailand Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) – 5 Years Multiple Entry has been approved!

Sharing my personal application experience for Pakistani passport holders living in the UAE.

My Profile:

* Nationality: Pakistani

* Residence: Abu Dhabi, UAE

* Visa Status: UAE Investor / Partner Visa

* Profession: Business Owner

* Application: Thai Embassy, Abu Dhabi

Application Process:

1. Applied under the Workcation / Remote Work category.

2. Explained my UAE-based business activities and remote management arrangements.

3. Submitted my application to the Thai Embassy in Abu Dhabi.

4. Attended the embassy interview, which lasted approximately 5 minutes.

5. Application went under processing.

6. Finally received the good news: VISA APPROVED! 🎉

My Experience & Advice:

A genuine business profile, clear explanation of remote work, proper preparation and confidence during the interview are important.

Every application is assessed individually, so approval is never guaranteed.
