Greetings and salutations everyone!

I applied for the LTR “T” visa (Work from Thailand professional). Around two weeks ago I submitted all mandatory documents.

Does anyone of you guys already got the visa?

Do you guys have any more information about how long it takes and/or how to process is after submitting all the documents? All I basically know is that it takes around 20 working days for the BOI to review the documents.

I appreciate any kind of help.

I wish everyone of you a wonderful week ahead.

Much love

Some report getting approval within this timeframe, while others note delays that can extend to two or three months due to document issues. Additionally, there is a requirement to enter Thailand within 90 days of the visa issuance, or the visa will be cancelled.

you have 90 days to enter Thailand. If you don't enter within 90 days, then it is cancelled and you start over.

very strange is all I can say. Hopefully you'll be issued with the visa after all.

@John ******
that's a very strange reason for being denied . Almost unheard of. The very nature of any non-immigrant visa is that you will eventually leave. The LTR visa is a non-immigrant visa with no pathway to permanent residency that I'm aware of, so why would immigration or the consulate deny you on the basis of needing to so business travel outside the country?
