Hello all. Thanks for accepting me in to this group. Has anyone obtained a one year retirement visa and if so, what is the first step. Thx in advance. Ann

Is e visa the same as the new ETA coming in soon

Which countries still allow walk-in applications for the DTV visa in 2025? Asking for someone since I already have mine!

Will the change to evisa on jan 1st also affect process time in countries that already only do evisa? Or only for the countries switchin? thank you so much

## ATTENTION ALL MEMBERS

Thai consulates in Taipei, Yangon, Singapore, Manila, Vientiane & Savannakhet will STOP accepting in person walk up applications and switch to the eVisa online web portal effective Jan 1, 2025..

Read the notice of the consulate you are interested in using to see when their cut off date is for the in person applications (and note that places which required an appt like Vientiane & Savannakhet are fully booked)

Feeling uneasy..flight at 505pm today but still my evisa from Vietnam is nowhere to be found..still processing the system said..6 days now..so in worse case scenario hubby has to fly alone, I lose my flight and will be stucked here in Bkk for a few more days alone till the evisa comes..sucks! But still hoping I get it before check in counter closes.. 🤞

Hello, we’re 4 Americans for the DTV Visa. I expect to get approved for my DTV via eVisa process through the Los Angeles Consulate. I made the mistake of not realizing the eVisa process is 15 business days and don’t have enough time in the States to apply for my Spouse and dependents before we head to Thailand. Therefore we need to pivot.

Now the plan is that I will enter with my DTV. It looks like we need to do an eVisa as a tourist visa for each of them before they arrive in Thailand. Can anyone confirm this? I’ve heard it just rolled out this month. I assume I will also need to show a flight of them leaving Thailand within 60 days on the day we enter.

We’re now looking at going somewhere in SE Asia to apply for their DTVs in that 60 day window. So far we’re looking at the consulates below. I know you need to book an appointment for several of them.

* Phnom Penh, Cambodia

* Vientiane, Laos

* Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Does anyone have a recommendation on what Consulate we should go to and if there is anything crucial we’re missing? Thanks in advance.

Hi! Looking to get the DTV visa in Laos at the royal thai embassy this month. Heard it’s the last month for walk ins, and then starting January just wait list online.

Anyone know a credible company and agency to help me, that can make this happen.
