Not seeing much about people getting DTV through Australian consulate on any pages.

Anyone have any feedback on applying. Thanks

If you haven't already done so, signup for the visa application portal and get the process going. I had mine sitting there half-finished for a couple of weeks.

If you have any specific questions, then fire away, but the process is pretty straightforward.

mine took 8 days. Nobody can quote an exact processing time. You're application goes in a queue.

@Gerry *******
yeah I figured so but I thought I read they needed to see the flight booking. Glad it was wrong info.

@Lance *****
It's common with any visa application to use estimated dates, since, in many cases, you wouldn't dare to book the flight until you know you have the visa approved.

Yeah I've done everything I'm just waiting on the cash. I was gonna buy my tickets too but good to know I won't need to just yet

@Lance *****
I hadn't booked anything when I applied. I just entered the date when I expected to enter Thailand. That's what they ask for.

Have you signed up and started the online application process? Some questions will be answered once you're logged in and actually doing it.

@Gerry *******
so did you provide them a copy of your flight invoice? Or just tell them when you plan on arriving?

@Lance *****
they'll say how long it could take.

They ask you about your travel plans, but don't require any evidence.

It is speculated that they ask about your travel plans, in order to potentially prioritise applications. I don't think anyone actually knows this for sure though.

of course but it's good to get some real life examples for a general idea. So far I can expect up to 3 weeks at the latest

12 days from application to approval, including a request for extra docs related to running own business
