I am a Chinese citizen and submitted an online application for a DTV visa to the Thai Consulate in Shanghai. I was quickly asked to provide proof of a frozen deposit covering a one-year period, which I did. Shortly after, I was asked to submit a letter of explanation, which I also provided. Two months have passed, yet the status remains "pending document check." This is very confusing to me.
Summary so far
A Chinese citizen is facing delays with their DTV visa application at the Thai Consulate in Shanghai, having submitted required documents but still seeing the status as "pending document check" after two months. Community comments suggest consulting an agency for assistance, contacting the consulate, or addressing possible issues with the application process.

I have seen multiple reports of embassies in China that delay applications for months. Not a good place to apply. A tough spot now with the new rules...

Have you tried contacting them by email, phone or messaging app? Seems like your application may have gotten lost or something after 2 months.

Sorry..the best thing I can tell people is to use an agent....it's cheap like 5000 baht and they make sure everything is done correctly.. because if you aren't approved it means your 5000 baht fee gets refunded.

If you are in Shanghai go to the consulate in person and talk to them. If not near send an email. ​这简直就是个猴子国家,他们还挺傲慢的。
