Hello, I need to go to Phnom Penh to apply for my non-O visa at the embassy. I wanted to know if the application is still processed through the official website or if I need to go in person, and how many days it takes to get the visa. Thank you all.

Those that applied from UK for remote worker LTR, what documents you've used for proof of income?

I lost access for 2024/2025 payslips and p60 (yearly income and tax summary) due to the company replacing the system and refusing to issue me with them.

I've got payslips and p60 only from the mid year 2025+, my bank statements for the 2 years. On HMRC government app I got yearly summary which shows monthly income like salary, but it's not work issued, and not exacty official, just a screenshot of the government app screens showing monthly income and yearly summaries, for the past 2 years.

Do you think that is sufficient, or anything else you can recommend me?

Hi everyone,

I need some clarification regarding my DTV visa application status.

On the portal, my application is showing “Finished” with a green indicator. However, when I open the reference number, it shows “Cancel Visa Application.” I also haven’t received any email regarding this update.

Has anyone experienced a similar situation? Does this mean rejection, or could it be a system/technical issue?

Would really appreciate any insights. Thank you!

Update: Got this email today (26/03/2026) at 02:58 p.m. without any reason being mentioned.

Hello. I am going to apply online for a 3-month non-immigrant O visa at the Thai Embassy in Vietnam.

Does the copy of my Thai bank book showing 800,000 THB need to be certified by the Thai bank? Thank you

I currently live in thailand on a non O visa and will change to a non Immigrant B work visa. Does anyone know if it’s possible to travel to another (local) country to apply for non immigrant B, E visa or you have to travel back to your home country ?

I will be doing my first My NON-Immigrant O Visa Renewal. It expires on July 29, 2026. How long does the 800,000 baht need to be untouched in my bank account before July 29, 2026?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Good days everyone, I’m planning to submit my DTV Muay Thai Soft Power application in Vientiane. My question is: do I need to book an appointment in advance to pay the visa fee? If yes, which website should I use? The one they recommended seems to be the wrong site. Thank you.

Hello all!!

I’m planning to cancel the DTV that I received in Hanoi and apply for a new working visa.

Has anyone here ever canceled a DTV before?

Do you know how the cancellation process works?
