My visa was rejected in Hong Kong, where I am a permanent resident and a final-year full-time PhD student. I applied as a digital nomad, assuming that bank statements and financial proof are the most important things for this category. So, I submitted three statements for one year, and the broker statement, which is in my calculation, is enough to stay for five years with no income, and I have a flat in Thailand. I do not have any employment now as I am super busy with my research, and I would prefer to stay in Thailand, reading and writing. After two days, I was requested:

* Other request documents: Letter issued by employer stating status/position of applicant, duration of position details, salary/remuneration and work space detail/condition with authorized person signature

* Document indicating current location: Valid HK stay permit (Student Visa) + HKID

I do not need a student visa, and I have attached my old job contracts. I also have a dormant company in HK, but I decided not to pursue this path.

I have attached a brief, polite description of the situation to all documents. Ironically, I just finished three years of Invisalign and implant dental treatment in Bangkok. I visit my doctor every few months (I still need to do a lot, but it is not urgent, so I thought this could wait), have a ton of paperwork, and can make new appointments.

I received this today: "Your visa application has been rejected. The applicant does not fall into any of the DTV categories. Refer to the Consulate's website for further details."

While I understand that any embassy can reject any visa and that HK does not have a reputation as a permissive consulate, I still feel somewhat scammed. I can afford to apply again from any Asian country and will visit South Korea soon.

Could you please advise on what steps can be recommended? I never had a visa in Thailand and never overstayed my stamps. During the last ten days, I spent a few months every year on average as a visitor/traveler in Thailand and the rest in 5-6 more countries—kind of a full-time traveler.

Thanks a million!

The upside: the whole process was 3-4 business days :))

Hello!

Does anyone here have any successful experience with the Thai Embassy in Vienna when there was a problem with a visa application?

Here is my situation: I’m a recent graduate and before starting work, I decided to do an internship in Bangkok.

There are two types of visas for internships – you can see them in the attached pictures. I applied for a Non-Immigrant Visa (B) - Internship (Non-Curricular) – because I’m not a student anymore. After a few days, I received an email to upload the requested documents (also in the picture). In the first row, they wrote that my visa would be considered an Education Visa – and the second required document is a letter confirming my current student status – which I can’t provide as I’m not a student…

My hosting company and I have tried to contact them via calls and emails over the past two weeks but always unsuccessfully. Someone recommended I go there in person, but they also accept visits by appointment only – which is kind of impossible to schedule as well…

Any ideas on what I should do in my situation? Is it a bad idea to upload a file with the message I’ve been sending them as the second document?

I would appreciate any advice and successful stories as I’ve only read unsuccessful ones 🥲

Hey Everyone,

I’m going to Thailand in January for three months to do an internship. I am coming from Australia. What is the best way to go about getting a visa, is it possible to do it online or do I need to go to the embassy/consulate. I’ve heard from another group that I may need the company to submit one for me. Just looking for a bit of advice.

Cheers

Hello! I applied for a non-immigrant ED e-visa to carry out an internship in Bangkok. I applied online from the UK on 28 June, and today 5 July the portal showed my application as "pending approval". What does this mean? Does it mean that my visa has been approved and all that's left is for the email to be sent through?

And does anyone have any experience on how long it takes between "pending approval" and receiving the e-visa?

Thank you so much!

Hello guys. I currently have an ED visa to do an internship in Thailand. This visa is valid for 3 months and my internship should last 4 months. Can I renew my ED visa with document TM.7 to be able to stay 30 more days ? Has anyone already done this? Thank you

Hello everyone 🤗

I will study at a university in Bangkok as an exchange student from Germany from August until December this year. Following that I have to fulfill a curricular internship for 5 months. Probably from January until May next year. After that I want to stay a little bit longer in Thailand to travel. Around 2-3 months. So I need visa for a total of 12-13 months but with different purposes along the way. Does anyone have any tips for a solution where I also don’t have to leave the country every 3 months to get a new stamp?

I would greatly appreciate any tips, suggestions, or personal experiences you can share regarding this matter. Thank you all in advance for your help!🫶🏼

Has anybody experience in applying for an ED-Visa in Kuala Lumpur for an internship in the course of one's studies? Do you know what documents they require? (the homepage does not mention this explicitly and the embassy itself was not of great help)

Hello everyone!

I came to Thailand in July 2021 on an ED visa as I did an exchange study program at a school here. Because that ended in December, I had to switch to Covid extension which I am currently on now. As I am starting an internship for a company here soon, which is also part of my study program from abroad, I would have to switch to ED Visa again.

I wanted to ask if you know whether there are other documents needed for immigration other than letters of acceptance from the company here/my university abroad? They also said a letter from my embassy, but apparently they do not offer these consular services. Do you think this will pose a problem when I go apply for the visa?

Thanks in advance for all the information!

Hi guys, thanks for the add. Coming April I will arrive in Bangkok to participate in an internship with a Thai company for 12 weeks.

However, the Belgian embassy brought to my attention that one of the new ED-visa requirements is now a proof of stay for the entire duration. This would mean booking a 12 week stay in advance, in times of high uncertainty of actually being able to enter Thailand by the time it's April.

I asked them if providing sufficient proof of the ability to book a 12 week stay is okay, and they refused. Is this seriously my only option? Could I opt for booking something for visa applying purpose, and cancel after? Any advise here?
