ORIGINAL POSTER🎉 First DTV Visa Approval from Pakistan 🎉🇵🇰
(I think)
Linking my previous post below.
Just wanted to come on here and update y'all that my visa was approved after submitting MOFA-apostilled local bank statements plus Wise-signtured and stamped statements.
Sepcial thanks to the kind soul who told me there's an option in Wise to get stamped statements.
I was absolutely unsure I would get this result.
Also thanks to the Thai Immigration Officer there who was very helpful with my questions and genuinely wanted me to succeed. And gave me a chance to provide the docs they were looking for.
Here's my timeline:
Applied for visa: Feb 6th 2025
Asked for interview: Mar 12th
Asked for further documents: Mar 12th
Docs uploaded: Mar 19th
Visa approved: Mar 26th

Hey
@Mar***
, do we need to MOFA appostile a local bank statement? Also, do we need paid hotel booking to show (and any minimum days requirement)?MD ***************
Congratulations 🙌
Fasih *******
Congratulations
@Maryam *******
🎊! BTW, why did you need boht Wise and local statements. Was your 500k shared between the two?Maryam ********
ORIGINAL POSTER@Fasih ******
no I wasn’t sure if they would accept one statement or the other so I balanced out the two to have over 500k in each. I sent from my own accounts so the last minute balancing was not an issue for them.Maryam ********
ORIGINAL POSTERNo ticket and no hotel booking needed. They do ask you in your form the flight number which is like TG434 etc whatever and hotel address which is where I intended to stay.
But they don’t ask you for the actual booking. And it makes sense because before the visa you cannot confirm your flight anyway.

ORIGINAL POSTERYeah I understand what you mean about passport. What I was saying was the immigration officer told me not a single DTV visa has been issued to someone resident in Pakistan yet. (From the Islamabad embassy)

@Maryam *******
No, It was approved in a day from Thai embassy Canberra, AustraliaReply to

You double checked that they gave you a DTV? Some embassies are notorious for giving you a different visa than what you applied for, so always good to check.
