I'm still pending approval for my DTV I submitted on the 6th of March, through the Thai Embassy in Canberra, Australia.

I'm Australian.

My flight into Thailand is supposed to be on the 24th of March, I read that most people were getting approved within 10 days.

Does it seem likely I will get a response this week?

Just a quick word about what I found when I went to Chaengwattana to extend my Non-O visa today...

The Kasikorn Bank branch in the Immigration building is gone, as I found when I went to get my bank statement and certificate letter. You'll need to get your required bank documents somewhere else now.

Good morning everyone. I'm returning to Thailand in March and need your help. I'm looking for an agency that handles visas in Thailand. I'd like to apply for a DTV visa (6 months for 5 years), and from what I've heard, there's an agency in Pattaya that can help. I'd like the name and address of an agency that handles this type of visa. Does anyone have any information? Many thanks to anyone who can help.

Hello, has anyone recently applied for a Non-O visa in Hanoi, Vietnam? How long does the process take? Do they ask for additional documents, and what documents are generally required? Do they require a 3-month bank statement, or only a current balance on the date of application?

I hope someone can help me with this. I came in using a Visa exempt on arrival. Later I got it changed to a marriage Visa ( I think ) it expired Oct 28. So I thought by then I would get the year Visa. I have already got the funds into the Bank but instead I got the under consideration that says I must be back in on Nov 27 for my year stamp. My problem is using the Oct date I thought I'd be alright so I purchased a round trip ticket to America leaving Oct 31. We called about a week ago and explained it to the IO working with us. He said that he would put me on fast track so I could get it in time. We called today and ask him and he said it was still in process. I have all week until Friday so that might still work out. Just in case it doesn't does anyone know of anything I can do. Can I buy a reentry permit being under consideration. What different options does the group suggest. Thanks to everyone in advance

Hi!

Hoping to get clarity and some help from all.

Just got my final approval document for thr LTR Wealthy Pensioner. Yay!

It was my understanding that I would next have to get a stamp issued in my passport. I live in

NYC.

Called NYC embassy twice-of course 2 different answers. They are now telling me i need to apply for the e-visa. Once that’s done i will get another document that i am supposed to take with me upon my next arrival in Thailand to get the stamp in my passport.

I litetally just got back and plan on moving permanently Oct 1. The issuance is valid for 60 days so does that mean i have to fly to Thailand to get the stamp, come back, them move on Oct 1?? Ugh. Or would the e-visa document give me a new timeline?

Any info greatly appreciated

Thx all.
