What is the current status of DTV applications submitted from Kuala Lumpur?

Jan 6, 2025
a year ago
Does anybody have experience with DTV from KL?

All documents submitted on the 26th of December last year.

Nothing has happened then, except that I was denied entry to the embassy a few times to speak to someone.

Updates:

1- 8th Jan - request for 4 documents including letter from hospital specifically requiring treatment in Thailand, full passport scan, stamp of entry, and hospital appointments.

2- 13 Jan -Hospital refuses to issue letter except in person, but with some help, was able to get one from the hospital finally.

3- 14 Jan - Submit all documents except entry stamp as Malaysian airports "autogate" entry does not have entry stamp :(

4- 14 Jan - processing pending document change just like it has started.

5- I will go to the embassy in person to prove my location (the entry stamp thing) I hope the security officer will let me in.

It does. The embassy says certain nationalities will take 4 weeks or more for approval. However, British should be fine
