📩 Community Support Request — DTV (Soft Power) Application Rejected

Edit: New update, I was speaking to an agent and he said when they requested for all pages of passport this includes cover to cover of the passport and I missed some pages. 😓 I'm starting a new application now.

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping to get some advice from this community.

I recently applied for the DTV visa (Soft Power – Muay Thai) in Bali, Indonesia, and my application was rejected without any reason provided.

Before the rejection, the consulate asked me to submit every page of my passport, which I did, and then shortly after I received the rejection notice.

A bit of background about my situation:

✅ I’ve been traveling in and out of Thailand for the past 1.5 years (many visa runs, which are clearly visible in my passport)

✅ My source of income is rental property, and I submitted:

• 3 months bank statements showing >500,000 THB

• Tenancy agreement + renewal letter

• Stamp certificate

• Quit rent + assessment tax

✅ I previously overstayed 1 day, but I paid the fine at the border

So far, no explanation was given for the rejection, and I’m trying to understand whether:

1. Anyone has had a similar experience applying in Bali

2. My frequent visa runs could have affected the decision or the 1 day overstay

3. It’s worth reapplying there or trying another consulate/online

I’m currently considering speaking to an agency - Belkin Group Indonesia or MPG Bali Visa Agent for guidance, but I’d love to hear from anyone who has gone through something similar especially those applying through Soft Power / Muay Thai.

Any insights, experiences, or suggestions would be deeply appreciated.

Thank you so much 🙏

Hi all

I have only recently joined this group and to be frank I am amazed at the level of questions being asked every day. It appears to me that the visa process is an absolute minefield or am I being somewhat naive.

I would suggest that a lot of questions could be answered by contacting the Thai authorities in the home countries of those asking. I am about to embark on a 3 week fact finding mission to Pattya to check out locales etc with a view to perhaps returning full time. In that instance I will be sitting down with my local Thai consulate and finding out from them what my responsibilities are.

Any thoughts appreciated as I am nervous about the whole process given what I read here on any given day.

Is there more risk to get denied entry at a land border (Laos-Thailand) or Chiang Mai airport?

Thanks

I am a U.S. citizen, I will be marrying my Thai fiance sometime this year. Which should I do, retirement or marriage visa?

Hello, I’m looking to apply for the DTV visa online. Is proof of one month Muy Thai classes enough to apply or does it need to be more time? I saw a few ppl mention Tiger Eye, any other suggestions would be appreciated . Thanks!

Hi guys, I wonder if anyone can give me some advice. Is there anyone on here that has moved to Thailand from the U.K at all? Looking for some guidance on this matter if anyone can help. How difficult is this to achieve? The do’s and don’t’s as it were.

Hey guys, this is a grreat opportunity to help our expat community by donating your MUCH NEEDED blood PLUS you get a FREE lunch!
