Hi everyone!

I’ve been in this group for a while but still haven’t found a clear answer to this question: *What should we write in the “passport place of issue” field?*

Some people say we must write exactly what’s written in the passport, while others say just write the country. I’m really confused.

In my case, the place of issue in my passport is a string of numbers and letters in Russian. Even if I try to copy them, the application doesn’t allow Cyrillic characters, so it won’t match what’s written in the document anyway.

If you’ve applied recently, could you please clarify what you wrote in this field? Thank you so much in advance!

How do I get the physical DTV card?

I already have my printed DTV and arrived in Thailand 4 days ago.

How to get the card and immigration to do so would be of great help 👍🏽

Middle names:

I have 3 middle names 😅

do I need to write all of them under “middle name” on my application?

Or only the first middle name?

Transferring DTV sticker visa to new passport?

Hi, could I ask for some advice, please? (I read a few posts about transferring stamps, but some of them are quite old, and I didn't see anything about transferring a DTV.)

I just got a new passport, but the DTV sticker visa in my old passport is valid until Nov 2029. Do I need to go to Immigration (for some sort of visa transfer), or can I just show both passports every time I enter Thailand (until Nov 2029)?

Thank you in advance!

Does anyone know if travelers staying about 10 days need anything besides a passport? Thanks.

Hey. Thought I'd share my experience, because the tips in this group were helpful and some of the requirements were strange, but actually true.

Applied for DTV for Soft-Power at Royal Thai Embassy in Berlin. (Northern Germany Resident)

Applied: 24. December

Approved: 15. January

Soft-Power: DiscoverThaiNature (Seminars)

and provided following documents on Christmas:

- Proof of current location: GoogleMapsGPS+Phone Bill

--> not accepted:

They requested Personalausweis (German ID) a few days later. Uploaded a Photo of it in hi-res (Scan app)

--> not accepted: they want you to use an old school Scanner, and see the Corners of the ID.

Used high DPI on scanner afterwards

Accepted

Same story with Biodata page of Passport

- Financial requirement: Local German Bank Account statement with over 14,000€ as .pdf with date and name (used their print function) -- there was no need to show last 3 months

Accepted

- Photo: I provided a 35x45mm Photo, done with a biometric app. Compressed the photo --> not accepted

Should be Photo studio quality (they actually tell you to do it at a local one). Took photo with biometric app again, uploaded in high-resolution uncompressed. Accepted

Activity: Provided the seminar activity document, which I received from DiscoverThaiNature

Accepted

All in all, processing took 3 weeks. But there were holidays in between and I didnt upload it immediately, so I guess it is more like 2 weeks. Even faster if everything is provided correctly.

Overall process was easy.

I've received a Thailand's Non-immigrant ED Visa through email (E-visa).

But I would like to have that beautiful physical visa sticker on my passport instead of the stamping, can I ask the embassy for it?

I have not been keeping up to date with changes to Thailand entry... do you need any kind of electronic authorization right now, or can you enter with just a passport?

So my daughter's year extension of her passport was granted but there is a warning about re-entry permit being required.

How and where do I get this from please?

Hi all. It’s my first 90 day report. What do I need to take with me? Passport obviously. Anything else? Udon Thani if it makes a difference??
