Hi there, I applied for DTV (Workcation) at Delhi Consulate on 28 May and got 'Application Cancelled. Disqualified'.

Here is the overview of the info and documents I submitted:

1. Have visited Thailand before: Yes (but this was from my old passport and I got renewed passport just few days before applying DTV)

2. Proof of current address: Arrival stamp in India from 15 days before applying the visa (but this was from old passport) yet nothing about old passport I mentioned in the application.

3. Proof Of Remote Work: Provided my NZ and India Company Extract initially. Was requested Employment contract 5 days after I applied, which I created and signed and stamped myself with all details regarding remote work, salary/dividend etc.

4. Proof of funds: Deposited 16k USD worth of BTC into Xapo Bank, converted to USD 1 day before applying the visa and sent the USD statement. Also there were multiple transaction of 2k-3k USD in and out every day from last 3 months. Also added Revolut NZD statement for 3 months which had not much balance but numerous transactions of 2k-3k USD and also many card transactions in Thailand.

5. Was also asked more documents for current address proof, for which I sent my Indian driver license and National ID (Adhaar).

3 days after submitting the additional documents, I got the email 'Application Cancelled. Disqualified'.

Now I am planning to apply again but don't want to make any mistakes. I am currently in Thailand 60 day visa free and planning to transfer my BTC again to Xapo bank again but this time keep for 3 months after converting to USD. But I am not sure that the bank statement may have caused the application cancellation last time. Could it be passport arrival stamp before the even the passport was issued? Could it be the self attested employment certificate?

What are your guesses and advice?

Would really appreciate any response! Thank you

Hi members..Quick questions

How long is digital arrival valid for...

Heading back September and come back December or January..

Do I do another one. Thanks

DTV approved.

Workation + Sponsor letter.

7 days start to end.

Taipei was great but you should have all your documentation and perfect digital/paper trail from invoices and receipts with names and a trail into your bank account.

Entered Suvarnabhumi woth printed e-visa and zero issues or questions.

Can someone please advise if the on entry visa with UK passport is still 60 days or did it change? I went in March and got 60 days but there was talk of changing it back to 30 days

Has anyone had any issues coming through Suvarnabhumi Airport immigration on a DTV Soft Power asking questions about recent Muay Thai recent classes and asking for proof ?

I'd like to share our experience with the DTV visa application process in Ho Chi Minh City.

I'm choosing to post anonymously because my past interactions haven't been positive. Although some responses to my questions were kind, I encountered a few rude and mean individuals, with some even accusing me of copying other people's content. Despite that, I simply wish to share our journey.

While many say it's an easy application, we opted for Watt, a highly reputable visa agent from

[members only]

for our peace of mind. I believe it was 100% worth it. Although abundant guidance exists online, I'm not particularly adept with documents and tend to over-submit, so I entrusted Watt with the process.

We are e-commerce business owners; my husband is the CEO, and I am the operations manager. We arrived in Ho Chi Minh City on June 4th, and Watt submitted our documents on the same day.

Here's a breakdown of the documents submitted:

Passports with visa stamps

Passport photos

Business registration documents and licenses

A concise employment verification letter, co-signed by both of us for each other

Six months' worth of personal checking account statements showing over 1 million Thai Baht. We met the 1 million Baht requirement for two people in the last two months. Since we are business owners, Watt suggested applying separately, which we did.

Timeline:

June 4th: Paperwork submitted online to the Ho Chi Minh City embassy.

June 7th: Supporting documents requested:

Proof of residence for me, for which I resubmitted my visa stamp along with two receipts bearing my full name (from nail and massage services, easily obtainable).

CVs or business portfolios with two work samples were requested for both my husband and me.

After submitting these additional documents, we traveled to Hoi An and Da Nang with our son. However, our Airbnb was in Ho Chi Minh City, so if further inquiries about our primary residence arose, we could confirm it was Ho Chi Minh City.

June 11th: My visa was approved.

June 19th: My husband's visa was approved.

The entire process was systematic and straightforward. Yes, we paid an agent's fee, but it was minimal and, as mentioned, 100% worthwhile.

Now, we're packing our bags and ready to head to Thailand! ❤️ If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

1st TDAC done.

Hello im making my dtv atm and i see i have to put flights in but i have not booked any flights yet because i want my dtv aprroved first what i do with this ? Thanks😄

I have some questions about the travel to Thailand part of the application process.

On the application form there is a box to fill in where you will be embarking/flying from into Thailand and a box to fill in the flight number.

If I haven’t already booked my flight to Thailand when submitting the application, is it okay just to fill in with a flight number from the route I’m likely to take?

From reading other posts I understand that they may then ask for an actual flight ticket confirmation with name as part of the supporting documents. Is this always the case? Has anyone applied and not been asked to show this?

And finally, if granted the visa, does it matter if you then change your flight into Thailand from what you put on the application/supporting documents?

I’m applying from my home country (UK) and flying direct from there to Thailand, if that makes any difference.

Thanks in advance for any information you’re able to offer 🙏

I am applying for a soft power DTV visa for a Muay Thai school in Bali.

If I return to Thailand during the application process, what will happen to the visa I am currently applying for?

I have an urgent matter to attend to and need to return to Thailand.
