First of all I want to thank you all for your support!

I applied on the 8th of January in the morning in Taipei (remote work) with all documents.

As information my money is split to 2 different banks!

After few hours they asked for contract, bank statement including salary proof of the last few months (I provided everything with the first turn) and company paper (which I order by the company) and certificate of residence (or similar) and submitted everything again on the 10th, Friday evening, and got an appointment on Tuesday the 14th for next day.

They asked to explain what I want to do in Thailand, about my company I work for, my salary and explanation why my money is splitted and my monthly salary.

After 10min the interview was done, got my passport and told I will get approved within the next 2-3 days!

Got the email with approval 5 hours after the interview!

Thanks again!

Congrats Mat for getting DTV 😊 by certificate of residence you mean the the one from National Immigration Agency in Taiwan ?

Did you provide any accommodation proof (rental agreement, hotel booking) for your stay in Thailand ?

Btw, did you certified any of your papers by your embassy ? I saw that KL embassy ask for work contract certified by applicant’s embassy. Wonder if Taipei wants the same.

Im going to Taipei in 2 weeks so Im preparing all the documents now and want them to be correct 😊

Thanks for the answer.

so I’m in Philippines now waiting for approval. Resubmitted a bank statement a week ago after asking for additional documentation. I’m wondering how long and if I should just remain outside Thailand until still approved.
