I will apply DTV with remote job next 2 weeks in Vietnam. I have all fully documents and I prepare but my bank account has only 170000 baht now and I will deposit 330000 tomorrow. Can I get the visa? Is will be risk? I lived in Thailand for 1 year on ED visa.

Please advise to me

DTV done in Korea (6 weeks!) - UPDATED

*Update as of Feb 2025. Apparently, they now ask for full alien card, no longer a stamp. Please, email the embassy for clarification beforehand.

Some people here thought it was impossible to do in Korea as a tourist but it was not true. I've emailed them before applying and a tourist stamp is good enough for them.

Applied online as digital nomad. They asked:

* Only 3 months of bank statements

* Full employment contract

* CV

* Tourist Stamp in Passport

* Certificate of Employment (letter from a manager)

* Proof of accommodation (Airbnb in my case)

Big con - the amount of time it took to process the application the whole 6 weeks. And 4 weeks is the minimum, no special cases. I also did an email follow up every week just in case. It was a hassle in the end and I'd rather have done it in Laos or Vietnam in a much shorter time.

But if you want to experience Korea and also do a DTV just make sure you go there for 2 months for the lengthy visa processing.
