If your request for DTV is refused can you ask it again at the same embassy or a different embassy?

Hi, may I know if there is any Singaporean that has successfully applied for DTV from Thai embassy in Vietnam (eg HCMC) or any other country in South East Asia?

Also, does anyone know where can I find list of gym in Bangkok that is certified by government to support DTV? I see a few names but unfortunately, they are quite far.

Thank you very much (congratulations to many of you who have gotten your DTV!)

Just a heads up for people that want to apply for Soft Power Muay Thai option in Taipei. A receipt is not enough for confirmation. You need a letter from the gym showing when you will attend, the gym's muay Thai license, and company registration. Make sure you gym is certified by the Sports Authority of Thailand. The requirements on the site are not up to date. They will ask for 3 months of banking statements along with your income even if it's soft power. I hope this saves someone else time.

After 2 weeks anxiety waiting

Finally got my DTV visa from Jakarta Thailand embassy.

This afternoon, I happened to meet the announcement posted by the staff. Before November 26, you can still submit materials offline for application.

DTV in Prague

Applied as Freelancer, applied on 18th October received 1st November.

Documents required:

- Confirmation of stay in Thailand (5 months Bangkok + 4 months Phuket, both via Airbnb)

- Receipt of payment for accommodation (from Airbnb)

- Flight ticket to Bangkok

- Flight ticket exit before 180 days

- Bank statements (6 months) with 500.000baht from Revolut (saving account)

- Czech residence card/proof of residence (also gave Czech driving licence)

- Interview even if it was an E-visa just to talk and explain basically everything I submitted, my intention in Thailand, why Thailand and so on

Staff was quite nice during the interview, they sure ask for a lot of documents compared to other places, but if you have all your cards in order you will get it, if you try to cut corners because you don't have all the requirements, well, you will have issues.

Has anyone else been waiting since the 23rd for DTV visa without receiving approval yet? At cambodia!!

Hello 🪷I am trying to make my DTV appointment In Thailand Embassy in Ho Chi Minh city in Vietnam , but it show no space for appointment until 2026, does anyone know how to get an appointment?

Currently Preparing documents for DTV, do I need to apply online prior visiting the embassy after 8th of Oct? And what is the most convinient embassy to apply from countries close to Thailand?

Ok, so now the Thai embassies and consulates in Cambodia, Malaysia and Vietnam have switched over to the e-visa system.

That means you must apply online to use one of those places. You will no longer be allowed to attend the embassy or consulate in person.

As for them the system is new we won’t have any information about typical processing times for a while yet.

If you’re applying through one of them soon then please post your experiences here so we can try to gain an insight.

Arrived at the TTEO (Thailand embassy in Taipei) today, October 2nd and their office is closed. No announcement of a pubic holiday. Anyone have any information?

UPDATE: I found an update on their FB page. They were closed today because of the Krathon typhoon. When they reopen this week probably depends on the length and severity of the storm. Plan accordingly for anyone headed this way.

UPDATE 2: Per their FB page: They're closed again on Thursday, October 3rd.
