London Embassy, Request for additional documents

Hi everyone, I’m applying for the DTV via the London Embassy. I uploaded my application last night and received this email this morning.

As you can see the Embassy has requested a bunch more documents, some are self explanatory and I've already completed such as a new photo which is different from my passport photo, and the two consent letters introducing myself and stating I will remain in the UK (I did already do both of these in my initial application as I saw others on the group were requested for these but they've asked me to do it again)

1. Where I need advice on firstly is the printed & stamped bank statements. I visited my bank (TSB) and when I requested stamped statements I was told by all the staff I spoke to that they haven't stamped statements in years and it's not something they do anymore. And even if they printed the statements, the statement would look the exact same as the PDF's of each statement I uploaded in my initial application. What did anyone else who had this issue do to move forward with their application? Should I write a letter stating I visited the bank and they told me they don't do stamped statements or provide anything else other than what I have already uploaded to my application?

2. Also, for a new freelancer (2 months in), what did you provide for the "HMRC Tax Calculation" if you haven't filed a return yet? Is a self registration letter enough?

3. And finally, for the monthly income transactions and the payslips. I already stated in my cover letter prior to my portfolio that I have just started working 2 months ago hence why I cannot show proof of income that is accurate but however did provide proof of my profiles on both my teaching platforms and lessons with students. I have not been paid yet by one of the platforms and have not cashed out from the other platform so what could I provide to suffice both of these requested documents?

Thanks in advance for any insights and advice!

Hello, I applied for DTV workation visa yesterday at HCMC in Vietnam, I got an email today they requested more documents. Of course they say provide everything in english, but i sent my bankstatement in german language (my bank is in Austria) because there is almost no text on it and they can see the amount of money for the last 6 months and they requested english statement. The problem is I called my bank and they cant do it in english. Anybody had this problem before? They asked for all of my passport page and my CV and details about my current work, this is clear what they want. The other problem is this:

Other request documents: Please provide a business registration document showing the company name, the name of the legal representative, and a company profile that includes details about its history, vision, mission, products, achievements, and a link to your company’s website.

I already linked my company website in the first documents and sent the business registration documents (hungarian and english). Im a sole proprietor in hungary and the company name is my name. I dont have any business name, its My Name egyéni vállalkozó (sole proprietor). And what they mean about company profile, what should i send for them?

Hi everyone, I am having issues about my bank statement with Hanoi embassy.

I want to use my "Livret A" saving account (french account) that exceeds the 500k thb required for more than a year. The issue is I did not make any transfer since end of april. So when my bank edit for me my bank statement, there is nothing to show after this date.

Even if my bank stated at the end of the document "We, *bank name*, certify the absence of transactions on savings account No. xxxxxxxx from 30 April 2025 to this day, 06 August 2025.", the thai embassy sent me the mail today required "Updated bank statement from May to present."

I am a bit lost, I do not know what to do, if someone can help me please.

I took a screenshot of my livret A web page, my bank also sent me the listing of all my account with the balance every end of month from end of february until end of july. I also plan to send an eglish+thai letter to explain everything about the different documents and I hope it will be enough.

I also asked my bank to stamp and sign the screenshot of my livret A web page if it can help too.

I really feel my application is legit, I have the money on my account for more than 2 years, it is just I cannot give the template of bank statement they want, because of my bank.

Thank you all for your help

Edit : This is what I sent to my bank, with a cover letter including this "At present, I hold 22,950 EUR in a Livret A savings account with Credit Agricole, which is equivalent to approximately 864,756 THB. The Livret A is a special government-supported savings account available in France, known for its safety, accessibility, offers tax-free interest, and high liquidity. I am able to withdraw and utilize these funds at any time for my daily expenses."

I’ve been to the embassy to try to get explanations. The officer after checking told me “my documents were not qualified”, but said they couldn’t say which document or more particular reason.

So I show the officer my documents, to ask opinion.

- Proof of locations :

OK (airport stamp + Airbnb booking)

- Bank statement:

officer said maybe my statement looks fake. Because there is not a lot of activity on it the past 6 months. Only 4 or 4 transaction In and Out. But this is my saving account. I don’t use it every day. On my daily account I never have 500k.

Also, I provided statement physically stamped by the bank + cover letter from the bank certify I have the fund.

What should I do in this case ?? Is this already happened to someone ? I guess it’s linked to many fake statement provided.

- Soft Power documents:

Officer said my letter was not really detailed on sport training detail. And should explain more what will I do.

Hi guys, posting anon because the group is open and my friends are nosey.

I am planning on applying for the DTV. I saw someone sayin they think they got rejected because they have their middle name on their passport but not on their bank statement. Anyone with any info? In the US it's normal to not use your middle name on documents really. My middle name in my passport but not my bank accounts, credit card, literally nothing else. Should I not even bother as I would waste $400? Thank you so much.

I am applying for my Dtv in Vietnam, in order to show the 500,000 baht you need to upload bank statements. The last 5 months are available however, I cannot access my bank statement for March 2025 until the end of the month. The intended date of arrival into Thailand is the 6th of April, therefore this does not give me enough time to recieve my March statement, aswel as upload the documents and have the documents checked. The 500,000 baht was moved from a savings account into my main bank account in March 2025, therefore my February 2025 statement does not show the 500,000 baht. I have provided a pdf download from my online banking app home page, and my Internet banking login home page. This is where you can see evidence of over 500,000 Thai baht in my account but it is not a bank statement just a screenshot turned I to a PDF. In my previous statements you can also see small incomes received from my NHS employment, which I still am contracted to do online-(NHSPROFESSIONALS). You can see my name in both of these uploads as well as my sort code and account number correlating them to the same bank account. Is this something that would cause my visa to be denied, or would they ask for more evidence. I am applying for soft power DTV

Hi guys! I am going to apply DTV visa in Cambodia. The issue is my bank does not provide bank statement in English, but they do provide Balance Certificate in English.

Can I attach a letter explaining that bank does not issue statement in English and BC for proof of 500,000 THB equivalent in my account? Anyone has experience like this or suggestion? Thanks very much!

How many people have applied for a second time and got accepted their second time round?

Any rejection reports so far on the reasons? Been seeing successful reports ☺️
