I’m a British passport holder. I applied for a single entry tourist visa at thaievisa.go.th in early October. Having done this in 2022 I expected it to take a matter of days. I submitted the last of the requested documents towards the end of Oct but still today my application was pending in the system. All research suggested waiting for 30 days before getting worried, but I emailed visa.lon@mfa.go.th this morning and got the visa approved this afternoon.
Just wanted to share the benefit of emailing the embassy should you have any concerns.
Hi all. I applied for a non o visa three weeks ago. I haven't received a reply yet and I fly in eight days. Should I be worried and try phoning them? Thanks I will advance
I have applied my DTV visa in Cambodia on the first week of October and still haven’t gotten the result yet. It’s been five weeks and I’m a bit worried that it might take longer due to the current situation between the two country. Should I send a follow up email to the Thailand embassy for a follow up? I’m afraid I’m might get rejected after a long wait.
Just had an interesting situation on my application. I initially submitted a first application (London) but was notified by email that it will be cancelled because I indicated the wrong passport issue country, however the application status stayed at *pending document check*.
So I submitted a new application, and additional documents have been requested and submitted, this new application is currently pending document check as well.
However, a few hours ago, the status of the first application changed to *pending approval* as confirmed by an email from the embassy (in attached screenshot). Note that even though the email says it would be changed to pending document check, when I checked, it was actually changed to pending approval.
Has anyone received a response to their email or phone calls recently? I haven't received a response from them for over a week, and they're not answering their phones.
My wife and I are applying for a DTV visa in Colombo, the embassy emailed within hours to request a PDF of all passport pages <3MB. The software I used cut some the pages, and my only noticed after she submitted. There is no way to edit the file on the portal or submit additional info. She emailed (even though it says no reply, it's not a noreply email) with the full file. They don't answer the phone. Will they request the file again or is there anything else we can do? The embassy is close by, so we could go in?
I’m a bit confused about the middle name part. Normally, I do have a middle name, but on my passport, it only shows under “Name” and “Surname”, there’s no separate middle name field. So should I include my entire given name under “First Name”? But when I scanned my passport, it did place my middle name correctly, but I’m still not sure. As I said, even though I have two given names, they’re both listed under “Name” on the passport.
So, I applied for the DTV 6 days ago (German citizen). My last name has an ö in it, a letter only found in a few alphabets. It is common to either write it as “oe” or “o” on official documents. I have been getting flights by writing it with “o” for ages.
I just got an automated email saying my visa application was cancelled due to my last name having been incorrect. There was no indication on the application or embassy website on how to spell it.
I will obviously call the embassy tomorrow and if necessary the responsible office in Thailand… but I wanted to ask if anybody has had a similar experience and whether they managed to get a refund it were able to change it after the fact. My visa application just got moved to the completed tab with a “cancelled” indication. Didn’t receive anything but this automated email. Because loosing 350 Euros for writing my name correctly is not acceptable to me.
