[DTV success in Paris]

Hello, I just wanted to share my timeline for getting a DTV in the Paris ambassy, and thanking this group for all their help!

Ambassy: Paris (French passport)

Type: Soft power (cooking classes), with House of Taste (Bangkok), 6 months program

Type of revenue proof: My savings account balance (Livret A), in French, for the past 3 months

Application date: Jan 22nd (11PM)

Visa approval: Feb 16th (11.30AM)

I did buy a plane ticket to add to my application (date was Feb 27th, which is when I intended to leave).

Hope this helps!

No proof of revenue was required on the ambassy website so I did not put any because this is soft power. All done online

Thank You for your helpful report πŸ‘

Congratulations πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

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.

Participant anonyme 933 yes sorry I meant proof of finances rather than revenue (the 500k baht, not a proof that I am employed or anything like that)
