Dear group

Thanks for having me. I really appreciate all the advices that can be found here ๐Ÿ™

I was wondering if someone has recently applied for the DTVisa Soft Thai Power / Culture / Muay Thai in Vientiane, Laos, and did only upload the bank account statement (dating back at least 3 months) as well as the Muay Thai school course booking confirmation alongside with the obligatory passport scans and the current residence in Laos plus initial abroad residence (in my case Germany)?

So no work contract, sponsoring statement or further wealth confirmations next to the obligatory bank statement.

Thanks so much for your attention & engagement ๐Ÿ‘

TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster is inquiring about the specific documentation required to apply for the DTVisa Soft Thai Power/Culture/Muay Thai in Vientiane, Laos, highlighting that they intend to provide only the bank statement, Muay Thai school course confirmation, and necessary passport/residence documents, without additional financial documents. A commenter confirms that the listed requirements are mostly correct and mentions the need for a 500k balance maintained for three months, along with an interview involving online banking verification.

Those are pretty much the documents needed. The 500k must be in the bank for 3 months. You will be called in for an interview and you will need to show your online banking as well as answer a few simple related questions about your application.

Thanks for your reply.

What do you mean by, I will be asked to show my online banking as well? They want me to login in my online banking in front of their eyes??

The uploaded PDF is not enough?

exactly. A group search of Vientiane will confirm they do this with everyone during the interview.

I don't even have a banking app on my phone and would need to get that activated by my bank in my country.... So, my stay in Vientiane is cancelled.

Thanks for saving me a lot of trouble here! ๐Ÿ™

Was thinking of trying Jakarta, IND, instead

Webbrowser login. However this is not working on mobiles devices. So I would be in need of my notebook in order to do that within an interview....

bring your notebook then, many people do. Or on your smartphone enable "view desktop site" in your browser settings.
