Hi everyone,

I was just denied the DTV visa at Savannakhet because they wanted the original remote work letter from my company, and I only had a printout (and presumably they needed original bank statements also). They needed the documents to have signatures, although not sure if that means original signature with ink, or a copy of a signature. And from the previous posts here it seems to me that other people submit simple printouts and that gets accepted?

So my questions to who went through this already are:

- When you applied in-person, did you have to bring all originals with signatures/stamps, or just printouts?

- How would you possibly get an original bank statement if your bank is in Europe? You'd have to get it mailed to you?

And lastly

- Since they're moving to an online system next month, do I understand correctly that they won't be requiring originals anymore? Since a PDF file is not an "original" in a sense that it doesn't have a genuine signature, unless we're talking about digital cryptographic signatures (which is probably not what they're looking for).

Do original documents need to be sighted when applying for a dependant visa? (I'm unsure at this stage if I will apply in Thailand or at an embassy / consulate)

I've only got a *certified copy* (by a police officer) of my marriage certificate.

What's required / sufficient?

* Sighting the original marriage certificate

* Sighting my certified copy

* Submitting a signed copy of my certified copy

Hello everyone.

question.

When sending documents to thai consulate in canberra do i send my passport and all original documents ?

then all is returned on approval ?

Hey a question about "original documents" for volunteer visas.. Which documents do they need originals of? It seems unrealistic to send some of the documents required (foundation registration, ID card etc) as original copies... Is it only Vientiane that is requiring this at the moment? How about Savanakhet?
