Penang Malaysia DTV

Your visa application has been cancelled. We regrettably need to cancel your application because you have no residence in Malaysia.

Anyone on visit visa to Malaysia got approved?

Hi everyone!

Two Questions about DTV Soft Power:

1. If I have no address or proof of residency in my home country, do Thai embassies accept any Hotel address from the country where I`m going to apply for DTV?

2. Do I have to apply for soft power classes for the whole 5 years? Or only the first 180 day term? And if so, is it possible to change between different soft power activities?

Thanks for your help guys ;-)

Hi, i’ve seen a good flight ticket going to Tapei. But i discovered there is a stop in Seoul. Which of these two places is easier (time, no boring, live cost waiting) to apply for DTV (for the ones who did it) ?

Hi, I am currently in Georgia (country). I see it listed in the countries where you can apply for DTV but there is no embassy or consulate here. When I go on e-visa website and enter Georgia as current place of residence, it makes me enter Ankara, Türkiye as embassy to apply. Will it require me to go to the Turkish embassy or can I apply online here and receive everything electronically? I have Canadian passport, and my husband has Russian passport.

Hi everyone. I am a British citizen currently in Thailand but I will be going to Malaysia to apply for my Thai non-B visa to work in an English language school. For the online application it seems I need some sort of proof of 'residency' in Malaysia. What can I use for this? My visa upon entry stamp? I also need proof of finances, should my adress on my bank statment be in Malaysia or is it ok for it to be in the UK? Thanks so much for any help/guidance.

Hello,

I am a Turkish citizen and I want to apply to DTV online, but I live in a different country and there is no consulate here. Do I need to be in the country where I will apply online, or is it sufficient to apply from my country of citizenship and prove that I am outside Thailand?

Note: I live in Northern Cyprus and I cannot select it as my current location because it is an unrecognized island. I have to choose Turkey.

Has anyone applied online from their country of citizenship while being in a different country?

Is it possible for a DTV holder to apply for a Schengen visa in Thailand?

For 90 days report.

Before 90 days ,if we go out Thailand and come back.The report count from entry day or visa start day.

I have received my DTV today, two weeks after I had applied. Here is my experience :

I’m a business owner in Belgium, resident in Belgium and spending most of the “European wintertime” in Thailand where I have a condo since many years. I fly 2 or 3 times a year to Thailand and stay each time 1 to (maximum) 3 months.

Usually I apply for a Multiple Tourist Visa, and occasionally a Single Tourist Visa if I have an extra trip to Thailand outside the 6 months period from the MTV.

I have never had an overstay, never used the “visa exemption” multiple times within a year. And I have Thai driver’s licenses and Thai bank accounts.

My application :

- applied for DTV E-visa on 22nd September from Belgium; selected “workcation”.

- 2 days later the status -can be checked online- changed from “checking documents” to “pending approval”.

- this status continued for about two weeks until I received my E-visa by mail on 7th October. No other documents were asked.

Documents that I uploaded for the application :

- copy of my passport

- recent picture similar to pictures you would use for passport/ID card/…

- proof of current residency; official document from the local government. In Belgium we can get this online within a couple of minutes. Document was in Dutch en had digital signatures. No wet signature or stamp.

- address in Thailand; I have a condo in Phuket and entered that address.

- flight ticket; I have booked a flight arriving in Thailand end of October, returning end of November.

- bank statement of a Belgian savings account on my personal name. I uploaded the statements from the last 6 months though a specific period was not asked. The balance was never below 25.000,- euro (about 950.000,- THB), exceeding the requested 500.000,- THB all the time.

- I had made a portfolio to prove my status as “remote worker”. In that portfolio I started with a presentation of myself. Who I am, what I do/did for work, the average time I spent in Thailand since 2012, why I can run my business as a remote worker and why I think the DTV is the most suitable visa for me.

I added the most recent annual accounts of my company. This includes the balance sheet, showing a decent profit, and the shareholders with 100% of the shares on my name. All documents were in Dutch.

And finally I added a copy of the title deed of my condo to the portfolio.

I was getting nervous when the application stayed on “pending approval” for two weeks. Wondering if they would ask for some kind of labour contract or invoices, or reject my application as my next stay is only 1 month. But -luckily for me- I got approved without further requests.
