Visited the immigration office at Blue Tree, Phuket today to get the Certificate of Residence for myself and my wife.

We submitted our TM30 and passport with entry stamp — they didn’t ask for our DTV printout.

We were charged 1,000 baht each and told to collect the certificate the next day. It’s all done quickly and smoothly.

We needed the document for vehicle purchase and Thai driving license.

However, I’ve seen posts here mentioning 300–500 baht fees and a one-week wait.

Just wondering — did we overpay, or is this the new standard now?

DTV approved in Hanoi 🇻🇳

Workcation (Korean)

July 1 Applied

July 2 Add Doc

July 7 Approved

Many people get approved in Hanoi, usually within 7-10 days or even faster. 🎉

FYI, for Koreans, DTV application fee is free. Please do it yourself and do not use an agency.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

I’ve just submitted my application for a DTV and paid the £300. Reading it’s non refundable. If I’ve not completed it correctly or they need further info, will they contact me or do I lose the £300 and have to re-think my application process? I believe I’m ok but it just unsettled me when it says non- refundable

Does anyone have experience with Baan Thai Immigration Solutions? To assist in acquiring an O-A visa, they charge 25000 baht for me and 20000 baht for my spouse. Does that seem reasonable?

UPDATE: i left out my middle name 🤦🏼‍♀️

I reapplied for another 340$ USD

My application was canceled (incorrect personal information). obviously i entered my name correctly. i applied through ho chi minh. i’m super mad and don’t know what to do. fly to jakarta and try again? the visa fee is already so much money.

i cant download line, i have tried on my pc with google and on my iphone with apple and it says the same thing every time. it’s not available in my region (united states phone number).

my only guess is that one of the bank accounts i submitted has a different us address than the one i put on my profile, but i provided so much more proof than 500k baht. idk.

any ideas?

How much is the on arrival Laos visa, ty.

Hello Friends,

Would you please recommend reliable agents to assist with DTV visa proccess (Bangkok, Pattaya, HuaHin area but can be the whole Thailand) and if you know how high are fees for such assistance? I would appreciate your help, thank you so much!

Anyone know of a good agent to help with DTV application? And know a rough price it would be?

What’s the fees to apply for Non Immigrant Visa (O-A)?

also confirming i got my dtv approved today @ phnom penh cambodia, aus passport, living in thailand 2 years (1st year visa runs + 2nd year ed language visa)

-submitted on 16th may via issa compass visa agent

-remote worker

-only had the 500k thb in my account for 3 days before submission (still have it on me in case)

-was not asked for further docs or interview

-upon arriving in cambodia, was told by agent that its become an up-to-a-month process here now

enjoyed my stay in cambodia, no regrets, and to all those that wanna cry about paying for an agent--- kk bro we get it youre the coolest smartest guy known to man... id rather pay a $100-150 for peace of mind + saving my time + having application fee reimbursed if worst case.. i.e. having as much % chance of successful outcome... but i guess im the fool, right?

was going to originally return to thailand via land border, but due to current border dispute just gonna fly + vip fast track
