What to Expect When Applying for a Thai METV Instead of DTV from the London Embassy?
Getting METV instead of DTV
I am seeing recent posts about people receiving METV instead of DTV.
I had thought about muai Thai for a few months (I just lost a parent suddenly) and I think it would be a good fit and something I’d enjoy long term to help me grieve.
I am also starting to freelance and build a business which would ultimately support me along with support from my other parent while I get things up off the ground. Ultimately I don’t want an METV as I will also need to support myself there.
Just wondering if anyone knows what I could expect in this case. It would be going through London embassy.
Any recent info on applications would be appreciated.
Thanks

New businesses have been approved via London, such posts are In the threads. Demonstrate the need for the 5 year DTV and you should be fine via Workcation.

If the Embassy thinks another visa is sufficient for the purpose, they may give that instead.
On the bright side then you don’t loose all of the 10.000 visafee then.
New started business may not be approved, until it is possible to show a steady income. ( so starting a business with the purpose to get DTV isn’t a good idea )
Use search including Embassy name.
