Hi all, I'm a refugee hold a refugee travel document today i'm apply for evisa of thailand but i send me back an email that Your visa application has been cancelled. - Incorrect type of travel document selected. Please select "Travel Document" instead of "Passport". - Incorrect "Nationality at Birth" selected. But i have clearly checked everything until i submit it. Have any one in the same situation ? and can someone help me with that cause my flight will be on January 1, 2026. Thank you
Just had an interesting situation on my application. I initially submitted a first application (London) but was notified by email that it will be cancelled because I indicated the wrong passport issue country, however the application status stayed at *pending document check*.
So I submitted a new application, and additional documents have been requested and submitted, this new application is currently pending document check as well.
However, a few hours ago, the status of the first application changed to *pending approval* as confirmed by an email from the embassy (in attached screenshot). Note that even though the email says it would be changed to pending document check, when I checked, it was actually changed to pending approval.
In Hong Kong for a few days, I live in Thailand, Retirment Visa. I am trying to complete the TDAC but it’s asking me for return flights out of Thailand, I can’t ignore it as there are asterisks next to the boxes for return tickets ?
I received an additional document request from the Thai Embassy in Ho Chi Minh City.
The message says:
Please provide the latest copy of your full passport, including all pages (even the empty ones). If you have a Temporary Resident Card (TRC), kindly submit it along with the passport. The photos must show the date and time they were taken.
However, I submitted the PDF without showing or writing the date and time on the photos.
Question: Just applied for our DTV we plan on bringing there for a few years but we put the time as 3 months the date on the application. My question is was this wrong and will we have to reapply again later because of it in that 3 months? Any info helps!
Very stressed. Thai embassy just can’t get over the fact I am staying in a guesthouse. I have sent them a receipt and TM30. My flight is next Wednesday to Chiang Mai from Hanoi.
I’ve been trying for days to fill out the Thai e visa to enter Thailand from Australia. It allows you to fill out down to accomodation then you can’t proceed further. Any one else had this issue ? Regards Stephen
My husband and I just applied for the online tourist visa. We are coming in 2 weeks for a 1 week vacation. They rejected our visas because the pictures I uploaded weren’t good enough. It was a huge pain in the butt. My question is can we just show up with our documents and get in? We are from the US and paid the $40 each already
I applied for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) through the London embassy on 11 September.
The next day (12 Sept) I received a request for more documents, which I uploaded right away.
However, my application has been stuck on “Pending Document Check” ever since.
Here’s the snag: I accidentally uploaded a Monzo business account statement instead of a personal one (it’s my sole-trader account with my name/address) and only after I realized they wanted a personal bank statement not a business one. I expected they’d email me again asking for a personal statement, but I’ve heard nothing, no email, no portal message, for over a week.
What’s puzzling is that:
• My wife applied a week earlier and her DTV was approved within a week, she uploaded her Revolut personal statement and after a day the application was already in pending approval and after few days approved, took like 6 working days in total
• Several friends applied around the same time as me and were also approved quickly, even when they had to resubmit documents, only 1-2 days in pending document check and then in pending approval and after 4-5 days they got approved.
But in my case, it’s been 6 working days already where the visa status didn’t change at all from “pending document check” and they’re not even asking me for more documents, look like it’s just stuck.
Has anyone else had a similar experience with the London Thai Embassy, especially if you accidentally submitted a business account statement?
Did it just take extra time, or will they eventually email again for the correct personal statement?
