TLDR : Answer Summary
A user celebrated obtaining a 5-year DTV visa in Phnom Penh. Others congratulated and inquired about the visa process, specifically regarding the timeline and financial requirements. Comments revealed varied processing times, with some stating 5 days and others up to 2 weeks. Many discussed the application steps, emphasizing the importance of having financial records showing over 500,000 THB for at least 6 months, and that applying through an embassy outside Thailand is necessary. There were also discussions on Muay Thai training's role in visa applications.

Hello. May I ask a few questions?

When we got the documents from gym school.

Do I need to booking Thai embassy (outside Thailand)or just walk in to submit?

All step is

1. Apply muay Thai, and get documents and recipes.

2. Apply financial records for 6 months over
*****
0B.

3. Submit all documents, and wait for approved.

Do I correct?

is the Muay Thai training school licensed by the Thai government ? Does the school have proof of others who have obtained the DTV visa for Muay Thai training?

You can search "muay thai" keywords in this group. Some people share the schools which is able to apply DTV. As far as I know this way is possible.

As my experience, the country embassy is important for applying visa easy or not.

( much easy to approved is Laos, Vietnam)

it has to be a embassy outside Thailand.

Some embassies you apply online some you apply in person. Depends on the embassy

I think they were one of the people who applied IN PERSON before they switched over to the eVisa system

The processing time in Phnom Penh is stated as 5 business days not counting the day you apply πŸ™‚
