Thank You for your helpful report π
Congratulations πππ
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 βοΈ 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.

OP@Lee ****
for me, they asked for 1) proof of source of income and 2) a photo of every passport page with a device showing current date and time (could be to check whether I am still in Vietnam).

OP@Sanjib *****
44,750 THB including visa fees and Muay Thai course. Forgot how much was what exactly, sorry.Anonymous ******************
thanks for sharing. when they asked for passport scan , did they ask for each photo to have time and date on it? how does one do that?
An***
OPAnonymous participant 645 for further docs, they asked for every page of my passport. You can get another device like a phone or laptop (I used my iPad) which is showing current date and time and take a photo of every page of your passport beside that device.

@An***
do you think swiping up the metadata on the photo taken on iphone and screenshotting it would suffice?An***
OPAnonymous participant 645 I donβt know. I just took it beside another device, as they requested it that way.
