Hello everyone. I might sound a bit dumb here but please be patient. I am having some concern that I might have filled the incorrect date of expiry for my passport. So I am planning to apply the visa in country that is fast in processing and I read that hanoi processing day is 3 business days. Is that correct? For my current application, I already contacted the cambodia thai embassy but it was not delivered. So I am kinda lost now. And i need to be in thailand before June 18th. Can someone assist me on this? Thank you!

Has anyone had delays when applying to Madrid for the DTV visa? I applied a month ago and have heard nothing from them.

Good afternoon. I entered Thailand with DTV in august 24. so i need to extend. I applied under medical soft power and already printed all documents from Bumrungrad hospital. Due to high medical costs and co-pay from insurance, my foreign bank account can’t keep the same balance for months. I printed evidence of income with embassy signature. But if they still want to see a steady balance, I could print a sponsorship letter from relatives. I believe this was meant for emplpyers. Did someone try private sponsorship? I don’t like long bus trips and would prefer to avoid border jumps 🙏

If I pay the $400 usd DTV visa fee and get rejected, will I have to pay it again if I apply again? Will I be allowed to apply again or is that it and I'm rejected for good?

Following up on my previous post regarding DTV visa application- I am on week 4 of waiting.

They have responded and asked to provide proof of funds once again, as cert. of deposit or bank statement for the past 3 months. I've supplied them twice with brokerage statements , which show the required amount for the required period of time.

Has anyone else showed brokerage statements? Were they accepted?

Do I maybe need to provide a letter from the brokerage confirming I have liquid assets?

Also, if anyone is self-employed and had to provide an employment contract: did you specifically state that all of the work is remote?

I've submitted a certificate of employment (for my own company) and they require me to re-submit with statement of remote work.

I want to make sure I do it correctly this time, would be super helpful to hear from someone who is in the same position and had been accepted.

Thank you kindly!

Is there any issues with getting a Elite Visa (or Privilege Visa or whatever they want to call it this week) after having held and used a DTV Visa? I ask because I read people were refused Elite Visas after having Education Visas and some other types of Visas, and you never know if or when they might flip-flop on the DTV visa.

Hello! I have entered through land border twice this year. If I go to Savannakhet and get a tourist visa, can I come back through land? Or I need to arrive in Thailand by air? Thanks!

Hello,

My online application for the 90 days report has been rejected because I exceeded the 90 days. The reply mail states that I should go to the Immigration office immediately (I'm assuming to pay the fine).

My question here is, do I need to go to the immigration office right now? Or can I just go when going to extend my marriage visa this September?

Thanks
