Hello. Can anybody recommend a place in Hua Hin for a soft power activity for my DTV Visa application? It can be anything. Muay Thai, cooking class, whatever. It took me months to get an acceptance letter from a Table Tennis Club in Phucket only to be denied by my local Thai Embassy online. Any help in acquiring an acceptance letter for some soft power activity in Hua Hin would be greatly appreciated.

Pending document check means they haven't checked the documents yet right? For soft power there aren't really many documents to check. How can this take such long time?

Hello, I’m looking into soft power dtv because I am planning on seeking medical treatment from a “clinic”in Thailand, the treatment ideally needs to last 9 months, so ideally I would need a longer stay visa. However the thing is the treatment I am seeking is technically not medical treatment as the condition is not medically recognised yet so the clinic has been skirting around the corner with aesthetic treatments and hence idk if it can be considered as a Thai soft power activity.

I am unemployed because of the condition and in no place to apply as freelancer. And I am so unwell I don’t think I can do Muay Thai.

Hello. I'm applying for the DTV via soft power. My soft power activity offers a visa service for ฿5k. Will hiring this service help to ensure my DTV gets approved? Here are the requirements via the Chicago Embassy, which I would be applying out of online.

It just says "a copy of a recent bank statement". It doesn't give any number of months required. I have 2 months of statements showing a good amount over ฿500k.

I'm currently not employed but receive government benefits which are reflected on my bank statements and are substantial enough to support me while I'm in Thailand. My soft power activity told me this wouldn't be a problem.

Just wondering if the service offers a higher likelihood of approval for me or not, or if I should try to apply on my own.

Thanks for the help and information!

Has anyone been denied entry after their initial 180 day stay with an approved DTV visa because they had to show continued soft power activity (muay thai, cooking, etc)?

Soft power activity that's getting approved?

I was all set to apply for my DTV, got the money in the bank and a remote job, however I just realised that my job needs to be in my own country, which it's not. I could set up a Ltd company in my own country an pay myself, but that involves waiting another 3 months, so, I'm thinking of applying with a soft power course, but I've seen a few people get rejected on soft power, so which activities are getting approved?

Thanks everyone that contributed recently to my post about what visa to get for myself for my stay, I've chosen the dtv route with soft power activities. Does anyone have suggestions of cooking classes or thai language lessons around udon thani city? Somthing with as little (or no😝) attendance required would be preferred but im open to anything! And if anyone has a rough idea of costs that would be helpful also 🙂
