What is the process of applying for a Thai visa through the Soft Power route and how long does it take to get approved?

Hi guys,

Wanted to share positive story. APPROVED in Hanoi with Soft Power route, and Wild Cat Muay Thai Gym in Chiang Mai. @wildcatmuaythai.

I applied on Monday 31st of April and received e-mail one week later at 3pm on 7th of April, which I did not expect as it is day off in Thailand.

No request for another documents, pending document check after one day and then another days waiting in patience.

I write this few days later as I got quite sick (Acute bronchitis with very bad cough) and I am still recovering slowly.

Please mind Hanoi is fun, but pm 2.5 pollution was even 250 when I was there. It had massive impact on my health.

I would love to thank Meaw from the gym as she helped us with gym documents and was very professional, also I'd like to thank all members of group, as your posts and answers helped me a lot.

STATEMENT was 3 months full statement, above 14k Euro for 3 weeks before applying.

I also added photo of me in Hanoi, in front of Hotel and tickets and so on to the location.

No questions asked on entry.

Thank you Thai Royal Embassy in Hanoi <3
