Who has applied at the Thai Embassy in HCMC, Vietnam recently and is currently waiting for an update or results? 🤔

My girlfriend and me are waiting for an update and are wondering how many other people in this group are currently in the same situation here in HCMC.

We submitted our applications on May 13, the status has been on "Pending Approval" since Friday.

Just curious how many people in here are currently in the same boat. Maybe leave a comment with your submission date so that we can collect some data points. ✌️

Good luck everyone! 🙏

Information for educational visa in thailand.

There are two types one is for university study and the one I am giving information on is "Soft Power Education" this includes thai boxing language and such

There is two things to this. The soft power education visa is permission from the Educational Ministry to learn for one year.

What you get from immigration is a 3 month stamp that you have to extend with fee 1900 baht ( 50 USD ) also ontop of this you still have to check in every 90 days which can be done on an app on your phone or in-person at immigration office.

If you miss extension or have to leave for any reason and you mis the time frame to extend you have to start back over and the educational visa is 20,000 baht .. ( 500 )

I just did this today and was given full explanation by the school doing my visa.

Hope this helps someone else 🙏 and I was explained that bank accounts are not given for these soft power education or hard to get just FYI

I live in Bangkok and on Visa free entry. I want to start retirement visa process. I plan to use an agent.

Is there any downside to using an agent in Jometien?

Tickets to Thailand is 3 times of the tickets to Spain from America, 17 hours vs 10 hours, why? Looks like only Turkish airlines fly to Thailand

Hey, which German is in Hat Yai or Patani? Thank you

Hey,welcher Deutsche ist denn in Hat Yai oder Patani.Danke

Hopefully this can be a sensible discussion, Is it just me or is the DTV being abused to a ridiculous extent? admittedly the Thai government left it full of loopholes and open to abuse but for me it really isn't working

Possibly a foolishness question, but why does no one seem to use the Thai language visa?

ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS:

Updated TDAC (Thailand Digital Arrival Card) info

It says the system will go live the 28th of April 9so people arriving May 1st can apply before coming

AND

there will be a choice for selecting Thailand as country of residence

Any Muay Thai gyms familiar with DTV in Nan?

I initially submitted my application on March 6.

On March 8, I received a request for additional documents and sent them immediately.

Around March 11, my status changed to "Pending Approval," but there has been no update since then.

Once the status changes to "Pending Approval," does that mean there is no chance of rejection or cancellation?

People who applied around the same time have already received approval, but I haven’t yet, so I’m feeling a bit anxious.
