Hi everyone,

I'm currently in Thailand and will need to leave the country in the next few days to apply for the DTV (Digital Nomad) visa from a nearby country.

For those who have successfully applied, which country did you choose and why? I'd love to hear about your personal experience.

- Which Thai embassy/consulate did you use?

- How long did the process take?

- Were they strict about documentation?

- Would you recommend that location to someone applying for the first time?

I'm considering nearby options such as Vietnam, Malaysia, Laos, Cambodia, Taiwan, Indonesia, or the Philippines, but I'm open to any recommendations.

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience!
