If you had to apply for the DTV visa again, in which Southeast Asian country or at which Thai embassy in a Southeast Asian country would you submit your application, considering the overall process, such as providing bank statements and other required documents?

TLDR : Answer Summary
This discussion focuses on the optimal locations for applying for the DTV visa, with insights from users who have shared their experiences at different Thai embassies in Southeast Asia. Cambodia and Taipei are mentioned as favorable options due to smooth processes and same-day approvals, while Manila is noted for its helpful staff. There are also considerations for applying from one's home country to avoid travel hassles.

Would apply in homecountry, then less hassle to get documentation approved, and no travel expenses to a 3 country, with nothing else to do that wait for the visa.

Taipei was same day?!?! Hoochie Mama, that is good to know

I would still apply in Taipei due to the same day approval. 2nd choice would be Manilla as they were the most helpful, friendly and responsive out of all the embassies I contacted about the DTV. Jakarta, Vietnam equal 3rd.
