I applied my DTV on 14th February 2025 from Islamabd, Pakistan, it shows processing, pending document check from that date. Is there any way I can communicate with the embassy as dates for my planned travel arriving soon.

I remember a post/video somewhere saying that Thailand would start some sort of electronic check in (immigraton wise) where you would enter your stay information (hotels, entry/exit info, etc). Later I heard that is was postponed. Does anyone know of this and it's status?

I am planning to visit Thailand later this month and I cannot find anything about it online. Thanks in advance.

Hi All 👋 we are in Thailand with our DTV visas and my partners Australian passport expires towards the end of the year, we are doing a bit of travelling and some countries I know need six month left on the passport to enter. We plan on renewing the passport this week in Phuket, however we are unsure now what happens to his DVT visa 🤪 does anyone know? Many thanks 🙏

Hello. Hope my questions find you happy and healthy. My question is about the retirement visa for Thailand. I know what I need to do to qualify. My question is on restrictions after I qualify. Is there restrictions on travel out of Thailand visiting other countries in the region like Australia, Vietnam and Japan. Can I travel back and forth home to the US or are their limitations? Having older parents makes me worry about this

I'm flying to Vietnam to get a DTV visa at the end of the month. It turns out there's a holiday there and the embassy is closed. How much will this affect the online visa issuance?

If I apply for a DTV in Vietnam while traveling around Asia and happen to be in Cambodia (or any other country besides Thailand) when it’s approved, is that acceptable? I’m aware of the interview requirement and understand the risks, but I can always take a flight back to Vietnam for the interview if necessary. I’ve been trying to find information about this on the official DTV websites, but I haven’t seen anything stating that I need to remain in Vietnam until the visa is approved.

I’ve also read comments in this group comparing this process to the walk-in visas (before the system moved online). However, in my opinion, they’re completely different. With walk-in visas, you had to wait to pick up the visa at the embassy, whereas with the online system, everything is handled and issued digitally. So, it’s not exactly the same.

Hi everyone,

I have all the requirements for the DTV soft power Muay Thai. I plan on flying in on the 12 evening and going to the embassy in the 13th. I scrolled though a lot of the recent Taiwan post amd just wamt to make sure it’s ok to do walk ins amd just bring the hard copies? Also if anyone has any recommendations of hotels nearby the Thai embassy

Thank you all for you time in advance.

Hi all :)

Has anyone experienced applying for the DTV when not in their home country? We are from the UK but currently visiting Turkey for a month, then heading to Malaysia then heading to Thailand for December (travelling family). I was thinking of applying for DTV but read I need to be in my home country (I will be applying online). Just wanted to ask if this was really a thing or whether it doesnt matter?

Thanks!

Jen

I'm doing my application for London, is a proposed flight itinerary and a quote for travel insurance suffice ?. I have put in my letter that I will purchase once I have the visa.

DTV question - I'm from America but am traveling Europe. I'm currently in Albania. What could I use as "Document indicating current location". I think that's something official from Albania. I didn't get a passport stamp when I arrived.
