How quickly are DTV visa applications being approved at the LA consulate for cooking schools?

USA has been pushing Thai gov for most favored nation status. This may have something to do with freakishly fast approvals. Question what proof of address did you submit did they ask any questions about current location beyond that?

This is interesting. I was looking for a place for cooking schools from NYC.

When are your travel dates? If I do this now, but I won't travel until September, I'm assuming that would be fine if dates are in order to start cooking school during that time or end of September?

That's incredible. Over the past few weeks we've seen posts of people being approved by the LA consulate in record time. It started with a few days, then a few hours, now less than an hour.

can confirm, they requested additional documents within two hours and approved me at the start of next business day

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.
