Hi everyone,

I’m applying for a Thai DTV visa in Jakarta, Indonesia. I submitted my application on May 4, and it’s been over a month now. I’ve already provided additional documents a few times, but my application is still showing as “processing.”

Has anyone here gone through the same process recently? How long did it take for your DTV visa to be approved?

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience! 🙏

So you send in some document but submitted 27 May and hope that the Embassy has now enough documents to issue the visa.

The Embassy is slow based on not having the information needed to make a good decision.

One month is longer than usual, but it can happen when additional documents have been requested. Since your last update was on May 27, your application may still be under review. Hopefully you’ll receive an update soon. Good luck 🙏

yes. Jakarta is notoriously slow. Very slow...about 6-8 weeks at least. I'm Indonesian and I didn't even apply there. Hanoi was fast for me in Feb...8 days.

Okay, then it may have to wait until next week. But my application has already been pending for one month. Does it normally take this long in Indonesia?

once you resubmit docs your approval starts the following day. So expect around 10 business days from 28th. There were 2 Thai National hols 1st week of June. Can be quicker
