hi everybody, i need some help.

i am applying non-o 90 days (marry visa) and they ask for my last 3 month bank statment and i had already convert them into pdf file but when i click "preview" on the e-visa website it only show for the 1st month bank statment and the other 2 month bank statment it cannot be display.

any idea ? 🙏🏻

Very happy to get DTV approved yesterday and thanks to all those who helped me when I had some uploading glitches, much appreciated. And of course I read others' updates on here regularly to help me prepare, hence I'm giving my update in the hope of helping others.

Here’s details of my application and what else I was asked to supply, and I hope the information can help anyone applying from HCMC under workation.

NZ passport

I have lived in HCMC for the past 10 years and applied in HCMC

Remote worker – Online teacher

Friday 1st August – Completed online application

Monday 4th August – requested 3 more documents

Tuesday 5th August – uploaded new information requested.

Thursday 7th August – Approved

I thought I had been very thorough and uploaded everything with cover letters/summaries, explanations etc. but still got asked for 3 extra documents:

1.Proof of current location – they asked for a photo of every page of my passport, including blank pages and with time and date stamp.

I was surprised because I have already uploaded by apartment contract (In Vietnamese and English) signed by landlady and with my address, my bank account with the same address, and my passport page with the last entry stamp into Vietnam.

2.Proof of payslips matching bank account – It simply said show proof of monthly payslips matching bank deposits. (They didn’t question the 500,000 THB, but my balance was significantly more.)

I thought this was odd too as I had already uploaded 6 months of bank statements showing salary, 6 months of payslips with company stamp and a little table on the cover page explaining it all.

The covering table listed the months, amount earned in GBP, amount deposited in NZD in bank account and a Thai conversion.

I couldn’t think of any way to make it simpler or more obvious so I just uploaded the same 6 payslips and the same bank statements again but put coloured highlights over the amounts and inserted a comment box saying – January payslip and January salary deposit.

3.Samples of work or portfolio – I had already sent my linkedIn link and a letter of recommendation from the organization I freelance to, stating what I do; tutor students, write course curriculum etc.

So, I decided to upload my CV, some lesson plans, a course I wrote, some IELTS speaking and writing marking templates I’d developed. I honestly thought this might be way off the mark, but didn't know what else could be relevant, and anyway it worked.

And of course I had already supplied all the company stuff; business registration, letter of recommendation, letter stating my work was all remote and no Thai clients and my work contract – all stamped with company stamp.

So, that was the screening process I experienced this week in HCMC. Now, you might get a different officer who checks different things, and they may get stricter or more lenient over time, but that was the state of play this week. I hope it’s helpful for someone thinking of applying in HCMC.

So after waiting for more than 3 months I finally see the status as ‘cancel visa application’ can anyone guide how to go about this it didn’t say rejected but I wanna know if anyone faced similar issue

Hello everyone,

I am coming to thailand on december 1st on a dtv visa, however the application is asking for a address and I haven't got my house yet because the agents I am speaking to are saying it is too early to reserve a house.

If I take an address in Bangkok (I am staying for one night before completing my travel to Hua Hin) can I just use that address for the visa application even if I will be there only one night?

Thanks in advance for the help!

To everyone considering applying for the DTV.

Please set aside a good chunk of time (hours if necessary) just for filling out the application online (apart from document / cover letter prep).

If you're even 10% unsure on any part, make sure to reach out for help or consult the guide/manual material provided.

10,000 baht is a lot of money to lose for silly mistakes, such as inputting a middle name when your middle name isn't even on your passport.

Hello, today I’m applying for DTV. I’m in Bali now and will apply online via the Thai Embassy in Jakarta.

For intended stay in Thailand, is it okay if I choose 6 months?

Also, do I really need to book long term accomodation? Is a 1 week hotel booking enough? I’ll move to another place later anyway.

Do I also need a return ticket?

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone done the DTV visa from Belgium as a freelancer? What additional documents could they ask for. I have gotten all the basic ones required. I have over 500,000 THB but some of it was in stocks so I’ve put them on my savings now. Should that make a problem with the 3 months thing? Also I’m a recent freelancer so don’t have any tax proof yet.

Hello Folks,

I just received a visa rejection email from the Thai Embassy in Dhaka. I applied under the Workcation Visa category on June 22, and today, instead of moving forward from “Pending Document Check,” it went straight to Visa Rejected.

Not sure what I might have missed! But I can ensure you that all documents and the input on e visa portarl was correct and legit.

Here’s what I submitted:

✅ Bank statements and solvency certificate (with more than the required amount, over 6 months) with regular tranjactions.

✅ Employment confirmation letter and an LLC company report from my employer (I work with them via Upwork). Been working for that company for the last 3 years.

✅ Upwork income certificate for the last 12 months

✅ Freelancer ID issued by the Bangladesh government

✅ All other regular documents (residency proof, air ticket, hotel booking, etc.)

Do you think I should apply again? If yes, when would be the right time?

Any advice or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Happy traveling, everyone!

Thank you.

Applied for DTV (Remote Worker) through the Thai Embassy in Singapore in early July.

Day 1 - Submitted application

Day 3 - Embassy asked for more documents including:

- Employer's updated ACRA within the last 3 months (previous version was an old ACRA document)

- Employer's letter to be addressed to Thai Embassy, Singapore specifically stating that I was allowed to work in Thailand. (previous letter submitted was addressed to "to whom it may concern", and "allowed to work anywhere in the world"

- Detailed bank statements (previously I submitted only the first page)

- Screenshot of my latest bank balance AFTER the 3 months of bank statements

- Proof of accomodation (they mentioned specifically AirBnB not allowed)

Day 6 - I only noticed the request on Day 5 and submitted everything they requested for on Day 6

Day 14 - Approved

Data Points:

- I had between SGD20k to SGD30k in the bank for the entire period of 3 months

- I still kept the minimum balance in there after submiting documents, hence my screenshot satisfied that additional criteria

- My salary is about SGD10,000, and I have been with the company for 3 years

Some thoughts: SG Thai Embassy is definitely pretty strict. I feel like they are trying to poke and find holes in what I thought was an honest and straightforward application. But otherwise, happy to have this approved.
