Hi,

When applying for METV from london embassy,

1. For the financial proof, does the 3 months of bank statements all have to show over 20,000 baht for each month or is it just the most recent balance.

2. can i use an cash ISA as proof of funds

3. If my plan is to fly to BKK from uk , return to the uk, and then fly back to BKK over a month later , Should I show all of these flights on the application.

Thanks

Submitted my DTV application middle of March 2025. I put down an early june arrival date , but my plans have changed and now flying to BKK on the 19th of may and not early June.

What happens if i fly to thailand and my application still isn't approved , then gets approved once i am already in thailand ? I presume I come in on a VOA?

I am also presuming i will have to leave the country and come back in on the DTV?

I called the embassy in australia 🇦🇺 2 times now and they are aware of my new travel date. Lady said she will see what she can do!

Any advice would be appreciated,thanks in advance. Just want to make sure i am following the process. I have no doubt i am not the 1st person to do this! 🙏 ❤️ 🇹🇭

Good afternoon all.

Firstly) When applying for soft power visa, is it acceptable to write occupation as unemployed? I have the said amount of savings and every other document. Just apprehensive about the unemployed part.

Secondly) it asks when I will leave Thailand and what is my flight info. I have no plans and no flight as I intend on staying for 6 months and will purchase an exit flight closer to the time. Any help on what to write on this application would be greatly appreciated

Thank you 🙏

Hi all... I'm going to Cambodia this weekend to submit the DTV application. And I'm trying to complete the Cambodia e-arrival card. However, I have a question. It asks for departure date from Cambodia. I have a flight scheduled on May 7. But I know that's too soon as I won't receive an answer yet on my application. And it will cost me more to change the flight than take a bus. So I decided to skip the return flight and take a bus about a week later (although I don't know the exact date since it depends when I get the DTV). So I'm just wondering if in departure date I'm supposed to put my scheduled flight date because that's what it shows with the airline, even tho I may leave a week later? Or should I put the date of a week later?

Hi everyone. So I'm applying for DTV in Cambodia. I'm aware from the posts it takes about 2 weeks. I already planned a trip to Cambodia for 10 days (7 business days). But I planned the trip before I decided to apply for DTV. It was only after I planned the trip, that I started looking at the DTV. And I thought since I'm going to Cambodia anyhow, I might as well just apply there. So my question is, should I go ahead and extend my hotel and flight departure from Cambodia NOW? Or maybe I wait till I get there and see how things go and then extend if needed? Because even tho most get approval in about 10 days, I did see a few who got approved in less days. Any advice you guys can provide will be appreciated. Thank yoiu!

What is a good company to help me get the DTV? Also, are you only allowed 2 visa runs per year? We are planing to go from Thailand to Japan then from Japan back to the states and then from the states back to thailand and then from there to china... all before the end of the year. Do you think we will get flagged?

Has anyone worked with bamboo oriental visa service. I am suppose to go to Laos tomorrow suppose to fly out at 8am for my visa and they are changing the plans on me ? Checking to see if anyone else has had this experience with them! Thank you!

Who will be in Hanoi next week for DTV? 😃

Please advise? I am getting conflicting results from internet search…Do you need a visa to travel to Cambodia for just 4 days (Siem Reap)

I have plane and hotel reservations for Feb.15 till Feb. 18

Thx in advance 😎

I got my Study visa. Now the only thing is I feel I would like to postpone my trip for a while. Need to take care of some stuff if possible).

In the application before approval, I had mentioned that I would be there in the next two weeks from now, but now I would prefer to go there after two months.

Ofcourse I had also mentioned the date of beginning of School course and my flight dates which are all in the next two weeks.

Is that going to be fine if I don’t follow those dates and go after two months or it is going to be risky in Thai airport?
