Hi everyone, I have a question about the DTV Soft Power visa.

I’m planning to apply around 18 December. The required 500k THB is in my parents’ account, not mine. If I transfer the money into my own account now, will that be a problem? Do they check how long the funds have been there, or only the balance on the application day?

I was planning to apply in Ho Chi Minh, but I can change cities if needed.

If anyone has recent experience, what should I be careful with? Any common reasons for rejection I should avoid?

Thanks a lot for any advice.

Has anyone applied for the Thailand Workation Visa in Ho Chi Minh recently? If my 500k THB balance has only been stable for the past month (not the past 3 months), is that still acceptable?

My funds are split between Revolut, Wise, and Stripe.

Is it ok to combine the statements as long as the total is over 500k THB?

Do I need monthly statements for each account, or are current balance screenshots enough?

What are the most common reasons people get rejected for this visa at the HCMC consulate?

Anything specific I should prepare so the application goes smoothly?

Hi Everyone!

Can anyone share some suggestions or experiences about applying for the DTV Soft Power Visa under the Muay Thai program in Hanoi?

Did you include any work-related documents in your application?

I submitted mine on the 3/11 as others, but unfortunately, I received the email it was rejected on Today.

Here’s what I attached:

• Muay Thai enrollment documents

• My Vietnam stay information

• My financial bank statement

I’m wondering if the reason for the rejection was because I didn’t include any work-related documents.

I got a 6 month valid tourist visa (METV) instead of DTV!

I applied for DTV under the workcation route. What would their reasoning be behind this?

This is crazy i made a full names on my passport how is this possible ???

I applied the DTV and got rejected for a reason that seemed to be ridiculous. The reply said that my application was cancelled because when I input my name, there was one missing "-" and not exactly the same as that on my passport. Do you have similiar reject experience due to this kind of small typo difference? They took my money and kick me out just due to this easily correctable typo which I don't it can be classified as a mistake......

Hi

I apply DTV visa from Ho Chi Minh with soft power. Today rejected & can we be apply again from Hanoi after 1 week ?

Please answer me & thank you guys

Hi admin could you please explain to me what the Thai visa office is looking for here please? I’m applying a non immigrant o visa based on visiting family

Hello, we would like to apply for the DTV Softpower visa. Our story in brief:

We applied for the first time in Germany at the end of April. It was rejected because the course only lasted 12 days instead of the minimum 6 months. The cooking school recommended this course to us, and to date, no other course has been rejected except for us.

We entered Thailand on May 21st. We left on May 29th for Vietnam, Hanoi, and applied again there, but this time for a 1-year course at the same school.

Rejected again in Hanoi – this time without explanation. However, our cooking school told us today that the exact week we applied for the visa in Hanoi, the consulate was very strict and there were sometimes up to 6 rejections a day.

We submitted both applications through the Issa Compass agency.

On June 4th, we entered Thailand without a visa, but I returned on June 4th. I left immediately due to a death in the family and traveled to Germany, re-entering Thailand on June 14th.

We would now like to extend our visa-free stay by 30 days and then try to apply for the DTV again in September, as the agency advised us not to do so again for another three months (it was rejected on June 2nd, so we’re commuting to September).

Which consulate is the „best“? Better saying: Where did you have the best experience?

Thank you for your help! 🙏

I have heard about so many Japanese rejected so much nowadays.

Do you have anything about this kind of information, thanks.
