Hi! Question regarding passport requirements.

I know it says your passport needs to be valid for 6 months when applying, but does anyone know if you need a certain number of pages?

I only have 5 or 6 pages left and I’m worried if the visa plus all the extension - leaving and coming back stamps - will be too many stamps.

Obviously can’t have the visa in one passport and then get a new passport at a later date to continue the stamps…

Any ideas?

Tutorial.

Before applying, check the web for ppl who successfully applied from the exact same situation as yours. often they share files they provided. use them.

the application site is tricky. you can't change it, you can't trick it.

so before you finally submit, you check each and every letter of your data.

the passport scan function is the direct way to being rejected. scan, and then check and mostly edit each field, so they match your passport.

deliver what they ask for. not more, not less.

have more money on your account than the equivalent of 500k baht. exchange rates change, and the process can last longer.

you can't appeal, you can't "talk to somebody". so be diligent, don't mess around. each pdf can only be one file. if you have more pages, ask google how to connect them.

ignore facebook groups. the amount of false and guessed info is tremendous.

finally: different nationalities have different levels of requirements. different countries may ask for different documents. so think twice where you want to apply.

In Evisa website, Da Nang, Vietnam falls under Ho Chi Minh embassy. But, since Hanoi embassy seems faster, can I apply at Hanoi office even if I'm in Da Nang?

Also, did you scans your passports or take photos?

I want to thank everyone for sharing their experiences on here. However if possible if you could include the embassy, papers required and passport or place of residence it would really help a lot of people figure this out as I see a wide variety of requirements for the very same visa at different embassies.

Hey. Got a few questions about the DTV Visa I'd love to get some help with. I'm applying in Taipei.

1. If you already live in Thailand, can you write your Thai address as your permanent address on the DTV application form?

2. About the bank balance showing 500K+ THB, does it have to be from the day of application or can it be from 1 or 2 days prior to application?

3. Should the passport copies be in color or black and white? I once had an immigration officer not accepting my application because the copies were in color.

Thank you.

Hi, do you think I would have a problem applying for a DTV with a new/unstamped passport? I have always traveled within Europe, so my priority was not owning a passport. For the other things, I shouldn't have any concerns. I'm applying from Italy.

Thank you for your help ✌️

It's been a long time since I've had to visit phuket immigration for a 30 day extension. Can someone please give me a quick run down on how it works again? Do I need to pre fill forms prior to getting there? Passport photo prior to getting there? Can I wear shorts? Etc

Also I tried to look online about open dates around Christmas? Couldn't find. I'm looking to go around December 18

Cheers ✌️

Has anyone had the experience of being asked for a photo of every page of their passport... I'm applying at HCMC..they asked for this 3 days after I applied, just a little worried incase I did one too many border runs.thanks

Visa update.

Applied Hanoi Sunday 10th, medical soft power (dentistry). Approved 6.30pm Friday 15th.

Supplied:

1. Bank statements

2. Medical plan for 4 - 6 months plus

2 appointments (dentistry)

3. Cover letter explaining a couple of complicated issues.

4. Accommodation details in Hanoi.

4. Passport pages showing existing visas & several blank pages past the visas.

The only thing I was concerned about was the accomodation details I supplied was different as my original booking was cancelled after I lodged my application.

Any queries pm me- if I can help I will.

Good luck guys

I need some advice. I was helping my parents with their visa for Thailand and it got rejected for “incorrect travel document.” They are U.S permanent residents (green card holders) and they have a travel document “Reentry Permit” issued from US homeland Security. They were able to obtain a Lao visa but not a Thai visa? I called the Thailand embassy in Washington and they told me that they do not accept reentry permits. So what is the correct document/ travel document I need? Thanks in advance!
