TLDR : Answer Summary

A Philippine passport holder shares their successful experience in obtaining a DTV visa, detailing the timeline from application submission to approval. The process involved submitting additional documents upon request, with a total duration from submission to approval of just over two weeks. They advise other applicants to print out the DTV visa email for proof when traveling to Thailand.

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.
