What is the process for getting approved for a DTV visa for a Softpower course in Thailand?
Has anybody on here been approved for DTV for a Softpower course yet ?
Answer summary
The discussion revolves around the approval process for the Digital Thailand Visa (DTV) linked to Softpower courses, highlighting the inconsistencies in processing between different Thai embassies worldwide. Users share their personal experiences, with one confirming approval through a medical appointment used as documentation for the visa application in the U.S., while others express skepticism over the ease of obtaining such a visa based on short courses. The conversation emphasizes the varied requirements and the necessity for proper documentation, such as appointment slips. There are also mentions of communication methods for visa approval, which can differ based on the country of application.

Yes I was approved using Thai Soft power. I used a medical appointment. I made the appointment online and used the appointment slip as documentation. No problems. I applied in U.S. and used the e Visa through the Chicago office

What type of medical appointment if you dont mind me asking ? did you pay anything up front ?Dru *******
@Rob ******
no payment upfront. It’s a consultation for possible treatment of a medical condition. I’ve used the Thai medical system before. Excellent facilities and treatment

Currently Thai consulates around the world handle this vastly differently. While some seem to issue a DTV based off of only a short cooking class appointment, others require at least a 1 or 3 months course. Typical Thai style. Even their own consulates aren’t properly informed. Good training for life in Thailand where people muddle their way through and shop for the most favorable conditions amongst offices of the very same organization - same happens with local immigration offices, departments of land transport, etc. TIT. Sorry for these honest words.

it starts to get though. It only is a matter of time when Thai embassies worldwide will end your dreams of achieving a 5-year visa with a two week cooking crash course. Or learning Muay Thai. Or attend a Thai school for weaving baskets underwater. Or bending yer back in an Asana Yoga seminar. . . . .. the Thai Embassy Canberra has already started the party 😄
