Visa Approved..

In case it helps anyone, here is a timeline and info:

Flew to Phu Quoc, Vietnam (good option as we didnt need a visa), applied online through HCM.

Wed 6 Nov - submitted application for soft category Muay Thai.

Supplied:

-letter from muay thai gym

-their business and managment details

-receipt of payment for 1 month training

-proof of balance and statements

-passport and photo

-Vietnam accommodation booking and receipt (should have added the visa entry stamp to this doc...forgot 🙃)

Fri 8 Nov - Request for docs - 6 months bank statements, and location/visa stamp

Sat 9 Nov - supplied docs

Tues 12 Nov - Approved late at night

Partner applied same date, but for worcation. Supplied a work contract stating remote work, and the required 500k statements.

Was asked for 6 monhts of statements, and a letter explaining the work/role. Approved (same timeline as mine).

Phu Quoc's an easy option while waiting for the visa. Super friendly people, cheap and beautiful beaches 🙏

I'm a freelancer working for UK clients. If I come to Thailand on a tourist visa, can I then apply for a DTV visa a little later... or will I run into trouble if weekly income has been coming into my bank while I've been on a tourist visa in Thailand?

And... How long do you think I will need to have the 500,000 baht in my bank account for? Can I pay it in the day before making my application? Or do I need three months of bank statements showing it already in the account and there the whole time?

(Finally, I'm from one European country and currently resident in another... Do I need to apply for the DTV from the city where I'm currently resident, or could I apply from a country near Thailand after I've come to Thailand?)

Thank you for your help with these questions.

Just received my DTV went to Vietnam to do the process as I was already in Thailand.

Whole process took six days I opted for the Muay Thai training package. I went through muaythaiboxingvisa .com

Just had to upload bank statement and the documents from the Boxing camp. A friend of mine had already used them and was recommended to me and the service was very good and there are always on WhatsApp ready to answer any messages and questions.

You arrive in Vietnam I just had to send over pictures of the entry stamp and upload passport photo .

The Boxing option I think is good in that. You don’t have to give too much documentation to do with work as you will be in the country training and all you have to supply is bank statements. .

I just got my DTV Approved in Jakarta.

This is what i submitted

-1 Copy of my passport

-proof The airbnb stay in Jakarta

-Indonesia Temporary stay(u get that in email)

-3 months Bank statements and a google screenshot showing How much it is from my currency to Baht.

-Filed out the application

-1 Doctor appointment that i got online for free. i just booked 1 doctor appointment for 20 Nov, got eMail confirming that its confirmed, i printed that out and thats it.

Wish you all luck, Jakarta is really one of the easiest when it comes to this.

Hi everyone.I will go to Vietnam to apply for DTV as a remote worker this weekend.

Can anyone recommend me which consulate should I go to？Hanoi or HCM？

I have prepared my employee contract,the guarantee letter and my company license, as well as a bank statement with a balance of 500,000 baht..

Thank you in advance.🙏

My husband is applying for DTV and I wanna apply with him as spouse and I am not working so do we need 500k baht or more? The posts were confusing as some people say yes and some people say no. Also how long should the money be present in the bank account (500k in total). Your help will be appreciated

Hi Everyone,

Edit Post

Finally got a response from the Thai Embassy in Vientiane. Confirmed that they required 3 months of bank statement and each month is required to be over 500K

***

I'm going to apply for a DTV visa under Soft Power doing the Muay Thai courses at Thai Embassy in Vientiane

Looking for advices on the financial evidence since it is not clear on their website. I already emailed to the embassy and contacted them on social media but haven't received any responses

1. How many months of the bank statements should be submitted? 3 months or 6 months?

2. Does it require to show the minimum of 500,000 THB at the ending balance of every months or the last ending balance with amount of 500,000++ THB is acceptable?

Thank you so much!

Looking for some information / epxerience about whether it is okay to submit bank statements in a language other than English / Thai, i.e. in my case german.

I will be flying to Vietnam soon and want to apply via their online evisa services. Thanks in advance.

I have an appointment booked in Laos next month. Trying to prepare exact documents needed. Applying with a 3 month Muay Thai course from a certified school. Where do I get the visa application form from to apply specifically in Laos?

DTV Success in Vientiane.

Got DTV through Muay Thai. Gym provided all the proper papers. The visa support letter confirmed that I signed up for 1 class per week for 6 months. I used a Wise account to show the 500,000 THB equivalent for 6 months. I used the statement version where Wise will put a stamp and signature on the statement. I also included my rental contract in Thailand that goes to May 2025.

Applied on a Monday. They looked at my documents, seemed satisfied and told me to come back on Wednesday. On Wednesday, my visa was not ready and they said because Wise is an online account that they wanted to see my bank account app on my phone to confirm my name, account number and that the amount in the account matched the submitted statements. When they saw it all matched up, they told me to come back the next day and that’s when I got my visa.
