If I apply and get accepted do they have to know what date I will arrive in Thailand to collect the Visa? Can I enter several months later after submittal? Not sure when I will re-enter but I would like to secure this visa in the event things change. Thank you

Greetings:

Trying to narrow down and submit an application in city that is not currently overrun with applications.

Trying to incorporate a holiday into this process as well

Looking for feedback from people who have applied in the following places and any problems they encountered.

Please state your nationality if you can.

Colombo, Sri Lanka

Yangon, Myanmar

Thanks

I’m just reading on the website of the Thai embassy in Vientiane that it’s not possible to apply for any type of visa in person. Is that true? Does everything have to be done online?

DTV Approved!

Applied at The Royal Thai Embassy, Delhi.

Thank you to the Embassy and Grateful to this group🙏🏻.

Hi, I have two questions regarding non-o, based on marriage to a Thai citizen

1. Is it better to travel to Vientiane or Savannakhet (currently in Thailand). Any difference regarding waiting times etc?

2. Does the 400,000 Thai Baht (3month duration) have to be in a Thai bank account, or can it be in an overseas account?

Hi everyone, if anyone on dtv has experience on doing dtv visa for newborn baby In Thailand? Thank you

I applied for my DTV for April 2026. Will it automatically be rejected just because of the three months? I'm surprised they would allow you to enter a later date, but then cancel and charge you the 350€ just because it was >3 months from the application date...

I recently applied and haven't heard back. Do you think I have any chances of asking to push the date forward (change of plans) if I call the consulate?

I applied through Spain

Has anyone applied from the Philippines, I am planning to next year, any info that may be useful please let me know

I'm leaving from Thailand for the Netherlands on December 13th. I'm going back to Thailand in January for 12 weeks so I want/should I apply for a visa online at the Thai embassy in The Hague. Is it possible to do this online in Thailand now, because I have to leave Thailand on 13 December. Because I'm not sure if I'm in the Netherlands or if I can get my visa arranged in time within 3 weeks.

Ik vertrek op 13 december vanuit Thailand weer naar Nederland. Ik ga in januari weer terug voor 12 weken naar Thailand dus wil/moet ik een visum online aanvragen bij de Thaise ambassade in Den Haag. Is het mogelijk om dit nu in Thailand online te doen, want ik moet nog Thailand uit op 13 december. Want ik weet niet zeker als ik in Nederland ben of ik wel op tijd mijn visum geregeld kan krijgen binnen 3 weken.

Applied (from Japan) for soft power DTV (health & wellness); cancelled for "... docs do not meet .requirement for DTV". Used mult forums & AI to mirror examples from people that were approved for the same thing (in last 2 months). These were applicants with less financial stability, so maybe it depends on the consulate?

Reapplying under freelance as a portfolio manager, which is a significant amount of income, but not sure if they will accept. As you have to uploaded financial docs in a previous block; I wrote a letter for "Remote worker, foreign talent or freelancer status" detailing my freelancer status.

Is this second attempt a bad mark for me?

If rejected/cancelled, should I go through an agent? I'm close to $700 down on this already and would like to not lose more money without a good explanation.

Should I get the METV for now, wait until I turn 50 (next year) & apply for non-DTV options that I am 100% qualified for?
