ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, I have successfully applied for a DTV visa for myself and my family. The process was incredibly straightforward, and the consulate staff were very helpful and friendly. ❤🫠

Here’s a step-by-step guide:

Schedule an Appointment: Visit the consulate's website to book your appointment. Note that one person can submit the application on behalf of the entire family.

[members only]

💫Prepare Your Documents:

👉Passport

👉Photograph

👉Document indicating current location: just a booking receipt will do

👉Bank Statements: Provide 6 months of bank statements with a minimum balance of 500,000 baht.

👉Employment Contract: Submit your employment contract. If you are a freelancer, include contracts from the past 6 months.

👉Guarantee Letter: Write a letter guaranteeing the support of family members who will accompany you.

👉Proof of Relationship: Include documents that prove your relationship with accompanying family members, such as marriage certificates and birth certificates.

👉Pay the Fee: The application fee is $340 per person.

Wait for Processing: The processing time is typically 2 days.

Everything was smooth and efficient, thanks to the kind and attentive consulate staff.

Thanks for sharing!

May I ask if you know whether you need to be married if you apply for your partner? I’m a single father to a 4 year old boy and have a partner that isn’t his mother, nor that I’m married to.

Also, you can apply from any location outside of Thailand? I’m a European citizen but currently in Asia.

Thanks again!
