UPDATE: Received my approval email with my DTV visa at 2:15pm today (Monday)!

Hi, I landed in Da Nang on Tuesday and applied for my DTV visa Tuesday night with the Hanoi embassy on the online portal. I got a request for additional documents (June bank statement and business registration) on Wednesday at 4:10pm and submitted them along with a cover letter within the hour. I showed them that I have 1.5 Million Baht in my accounts. I haven't heard anything from them since they requested the additional documents and I really need to figure out my travel arrangements. Has anyone else had a similar experience - if so, how long did it take to get a decision?

Right now, my status is Processing Pending Approval (1)

Does the on line 90 day reporting ever work ...

3 days now and still pending done on 14 days beforr due date

Do you need to make an appointment for a 60 day tourist visa application at Savannakhet ?

hi - I am a bit worried now. Yesterday I did my 2nd tm47 online and today I see a mail from immigration saying : your application for staying longer than 90 days has been rejected

and : please contact the nearest immigration office immediately in person.

That doesn't sound good.

Any guesses? I have done nothing not been involved with police or anything.

Does Taipei still do the walk-in (no appointment) ? Does this mean that I don't have to submit that application online on evsiath.go?

THANK YOU !!! :)

Any difference between applying online and applying at an embassy?

Laos and Hanoi seem fast and easy with the correct paperwork at the embassy.

Doesn't make a difference if I do it in Bali?

Just provide the entrance stamp in the papers?

Thanks guys!!!

When I crossed the border, I showed Thai Immigration my visa via phone. But she never bothered to look, because their system already showed DTV.

Hi all

I have only recently joined this group and to be frank I am amazed at the level of questions being asked every day. It appears to me that the visa process is an absolute minefield or am I being somewhat naive.

I would suggest that a lot of questions could be answered by contacting the Thai authorities in the home countries of those asking. I am about to embark on a 3 week fact finding mission to Pattya to check out locales etc with a view to perhaps returning full time. In that instance I will be sitting down with my local Thai consulate and finding out from them what my responsibilities are.

Any thoughts appreciated as I am nervous about the whole process given what I read here on any given day.

Anyone in laos doing their dtv? What’s the process there? I’m hearing online only but then people going in for meetings also.

Help a bro out!
