📌 Urgent Information Needed Regarding DTV Visa – Manila Thai Embassy

Hello everyone,

I would like to ask a few important questions:

1. Has anyone applied for a DTV visa at the Thai Embassy in Manila?

2. If so, how long did the processing take?

3. Has anyone received visa approval in June?

I’m planning to apply as a Freelancer, and I already have 500,000 THB in my bank account (financial proof is ready).

I would really appreciate it if anyone who has recent experience could kindly share their timeline and advice.

Thank you so much 🙏

I think the 500 000 THB have to be in your account 3-6 months before applying. Not 100 percents certain.

I did get a request back from Manila for multiple months of statements. I hadn't initially learned how to combine several files into one doc but made a point to after the request so yeah I would expect them to request multiple months.

I was just approved for soft power. It took about 3 weeks for me.

Currently waiting on doc check submitted this week, holidays are pushing everything back. Posts are across the board about taking awhile (multiple weeks). I wouldn't expect a quick turn around right now. Especially compared to a couple of months ago when a poster got approved in under 4 hours.
