Why was my visa application rejected in Cambodia despite following the correct procedures?

@Gregory ******

You apply via the eVisa portal. you select the embassy that is responsible for the country you are currently in. That embassy will then handle your application. So if you are in your home country then you select it. if you are in vietnam then you select the appropriate embassy for your location. same for every country. these embassies then all have different requirements. you need to upload a proof of location. in your home country that is any official letter like an electricity bill or bank letter or sometimes local id card with your registered adress… in a foreign country that might be entry stamp in your passport, hotel booking, etc.. if you stay in a foreign country, or even in thailand and select your home countries thai embassy or a different countries thai embassy then you are gaming the system and the chances are that they will find out and deny you. in germany for example they started to invite people for in-person interviews.

tldr: officialy you have to be outside of thailand. use the evisa portal with the correct embassy selected to apply and get your visa.

@Dany *******

sorry, just wanna understand this correctly - are you saying that, in order to get the DTV, you MUST apply through a Thai consulate office of some kind outside of Thailand, EVEN if you are submitting the visa through Thailand's e-visa website portal? I thought if you apply for the DTV through the online e-visa thing, you don't need to apply through a Thai consulate office... Thanks!

@Dany *******

ah, thank you for the clarification

@Elise ********

for eVisa you select the embassy of the country that you are currently in. its not allowed to select a different embassy and might lead to rejection. for your home country you need to be physically there to legaly use the eVisa system for that specific country… so people travel to neighboring countries of thailand and after they arrive they put in their visa application via the eVisa website. there is no more walk-in visits to the thai embassies.

Anonymous participant - So will you fly to Canada and apply?

Anonymous participant can you show your question in the email?

Anonymous participant huh? How does what you shared imply that they are ok with zero?

@John ******

Germany was okay with just a recent account overview. so money in the bank for a day. not even a statement required 🤷‍♀️ different everywhere. but now they also started to invite people for interviews 😅😅

Anonymous participant - Well that is why groups like this exist. Some embassy’s want 1 month, others 3 and others 6. None have been. Ok with 1 week

You could not have changed the outcome by submitting other documents.

@Henrik ****

this is incorrect. Mine immediately went from submitted to pending approval, then silence for two weeks before sudden rejection

You will be asked for additional documents long before being rejected, so if you haven’t been asked for documents, they would not be able to change the outcome.

@Helen *******

I'm going to go with what I was told at the border and witnessed with me and 6 other angery people. I had zero problems crossing today, as I was told I wouldn't by the same agent.

@Rio *****

That is incorrect, it was changed when they made the visa exempt entry 60 days in July... however has absolutely nothing to do with the DTV which is what this group is specifically for. In other visa groups people have mentioned that immigration is tightening up on border bounces, some ay you need to stay out at least 1-2 nights or just decline outright but ultimately depends on the officer you are standing in front of at the time.

@Fąndn ******

You are allowed 2 before they start looking at you. From what I have been told. 2 runs unlimited departures.

@Rio *****

I wonder if there are ppl who do Border-Run every 60 or 90 days for a few years 🤔

@James *******

yes I saw the advert, last week I saw 9999 on advertisement, but when I inquired they say it's .90 thb

@Crystal ******

it's a class., contact the course sponsor for details.

Anonymous participant correct ✅

Show that with link.

Visa fees are non-refundable

@Henrik ****

85% refund if by credit card

90% refund if by Thai bank
