ORIGINAL POSTER

Edit: You upload a flight ticket for the visa application and mine is from Manila to BKK and I am only allowed to stay in Phillipines for 30 days with my visa, that's why I am worried :(

I am applying DTV (Freelancer) from Manila.  I have JUST noticed that my ticket to Thailand which I thought is tomorrow is actually on May.. I am pretty sure I bought a service that I thought I can make changes on flight details but Agoda says it is not possible now.. I have sent the embassy an email explaining the situation and I don't want to buy another ticket right away just incase things might delay.. What is your suggestion? I am worried...

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is applying for a DTV (Freelancer) visa from Manila but realizes that their flight to Thailand is booked for May instead of tomorrow. They are concerned about the implications of this situation given their limited stay in the Philippines and the non-changeable flight ticket purchased from Agoda. Commenters advise the user to wait for the visa approval before deciding on travel plans, suggesting that the flight ticket issue does not directly impact the DTV application process.

A visa run needs a good planning, which you obviously not did.

You should not buy a ticket before you know when you can travel, and if you do, buy the ticket directly from the airline and check you get the possibility to change.

Now all you can do is hope for the best.

Your plane ticket has nothing to do with your DTV and the embassy... Wait for the visa and then decide on when coming to Thailand

I suggest you are more careful in future. Your failure to be diligent does not make it the problem for the collective to solve.

First thing you do is you wait till your DTV is approved, then decide on when you want to go to Thailand. Why would you ask the embassy something about an error in your flight date? It has nothing to do with your DTV submission
