TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation highlights various experiences regarding the DTV (Digital Nomad) visa application process at the Thai Embassy in Paris.

There was also a mention of the general slow pace of bureaucracy in France.

Hi! I got the DTV remote worker from the Thai Embassy in Paris in June. You can easily ask them for information by email, they usually respond quickly, however the application process was rather long... 5 weeks with a request for additional documents.
