Morning all, we want to apply for the tourist ME visa for a trip from end of December to mid May. The visa lasts 6 months from date of issue so we don’t want the visa issued until mid/end of November. My question is how long does the application process take for any resident as we need to time it right to send off our application. Thank you

Hello, I am going to apply this week for workation,

Brazil passport, work from US.

About the company that I work I made a PDF document with only the recommendation letter from them saying they allow me to work remote from thailand with boss eletronic sign from US, document about company registration in US with my boss name, and screenshot company social media.

I dont have any contract but I work for them 3 years already.

Is this enough?

Applied in Jakarta on the 17th September and haven't heard back (today 25th September). The status below still says:

"Processing Pending Document Check (1)", I haven't received an Email from their side e.g asking for more documents, but would that appear also on their webpage if that was the case?

Anyone also experiencing this applying through Jakarta?

Thank you

Hi all.

I have a marriage visa that I need to do my first extension of in December. The original visa was processed in Phuket, so the CM immigration office has told me I need to go there to do my first yearly extension. As for documents etc. are they the same as when I applied on the first place e.g. photos of us in the house? And if so, does immigration need to visit the house again (because we live in CM now, that might be an issue).

Thank you for any advice you can give.

When applying for non-o visa what documentation is needed for proof of residency for both initial application and renewal. I stay at a small hotel in Chiang Mai, but will be applying from India.

First 90 day report coming up, since getting my 12m extension. I'm yold i must attend on 1st then i can request and set up future 90DR online.

Can someone please list all docs/copies they will ask for on my visit, its a long way to call in just to get a list from them.

I might request a resident's certificate at same time, to apply for licences. So a list for this would also be handy, own my condo but no yellow book yet just docs and empty blue book.

Sorry if this been asked b4

Hi there! I've been asking some questions here a few times, read loads of posts, and that was helpful. I just had the great new : got approved! So I thought I would share my experience. I'm talking about the french embassy here.

I applied on the 21st of July from Paris embassy for the soft power Muay Thai.

Got asked extra documents on the 18th of August.

Send it to them on the 19th and got approved about 1 hour later.

On their website it says they can take up to a month, which was exactly the time they took for me. Another person on the group applied there on the same date as me and also got approved today. So yes be patient. They are easy to reach over email, they respond quickly... I tried multiple times to get them through the phone and never had any chance, but then I saw on one of their email they said if you wanna call them it's only on tuesdays from 2 to 4pm.

The documents I had to send were the basics : picture of my passeport, picture of me, invitation letter from the gym, bank statements for 3 months.

The extra documents they asked were : License from the gym (I was the 1st one from there applying in Paris so maybe that's why), a proof of payment for the courses and my bank statement again.

For those who wonders because its different from one embassy to another, so i'm talking only about Paris :

- 6 months course is enough. I had a letter saying that I booked for 6 months, and the receipt for the payment I made which was not for the whole 6 months.

- they asked my bank statement again because I sent them only a paper signed from my bank saying how much money I have in my account, without saying for how long I've had it. What they want is 15000k each months for 3 months.

- I read in the group a lot of confusion about what to put in "place of issue of your passeport". I put FRANCE instead of the city written on my passeport. I contacted the embassy who said both are fine.

Like many people said in the group already : DOUBLE CHECK YOUR INFORMATION before submitting. I put all the info by myself and then when I uploaded the picture of my passeport, it automatically changed some dates... so BE CAREFULL!

I used the website ilovepdf to merged all the documents together and compressed, super easy and free.

I'm really bad with paperwork and I hate it, however I found it really easy to apply, the documents they ask are pretty basic... so I do not think paying a tierce person to do it for you is necessary.

I did book my flight ticket before applying because I thought I had to since they ask for it... but I read in the group that you can put any flight number, which I think is better because it was really stressful to not get the visa on time even tho I gave it some extra time. But I did see here that some people has been ask for the actual flight.

Now I'm flying on sunday and if i'm correct I just need to print my VISA and do my TDAC.

I have a double citizenship and I will be applying with the swedish citizenship. In when filling in documents u should write country of birth and it is not sweden for me, and then u need to specify if u have an extra citizenship and which country. Has anyone experienced that double citizenship has influenced thai embassy decision about DTV vida or they have asked for more documents?

I would appreciate your advice regarding my upcoming Guardian Visa extension. I am currently on my first-year extension, and for last year’s application, I submitted a consular legalized birth certificate as proof of relationship.

Could you please confirm whether I can re-use the same document for this year’s extension, or if I need to obtain a newly consular legalized version? If so, how long such certified documents are considered valid.

Thank you so much🙏
