ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
This post details the process of obtaining a DTV visa from London as a spouse of an approved applicant. The author's wife successfully applied for the DTV visa first and received approval within three days. Following this, the author applied using their marriage certificate and a certified translation, encountering a request for additional documentation (the original marriage certificate with an apostilled translation), which was provided and led to swift visa approval. The author arrived in Thailand without a return ticket and noted that while some travelers were asked for one, they faced no issues on arrival.
