Hi guys,

I requested documents from Canberra, and since I have two jobs, I was provided with both contracts and a letter stating that I’m allowed to work remotely from anywhere.

However, the Thai Embassy asked for the following, and I’m a bit confused:

1) I already provided the company number in the letter, but they seem to be asking for something more official, such as a Companies House Certificate of Incorporation or a Companies House Company Profile.

Has anyone experienced this, or can you clarify what exactly they are expecting?

2) They also seem to want another letter confirming that I’m allowed to work remotely while staying in Thailand.

My previous letter included my salary and highlight work from anywhere remotely — for this new letter, is it necessary to include salary again, or is it enough to simply confirm that remote work from Thailand is permitted?

Any advice from those who have applied would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I couldn’t find many older posts about this, so I wanted to ask:

Has anyone here applied for a DTV visa through the Thai Embassy / Consulate in Ankara, Turkey?

How long did the process take in your experience?

And overall, did you have a positive impression of the consulate and the way they handled the application?

Hi everyone,

my girlfriend plans to apply for the Thailand DTV Workcation Visa at the Thai Embassy in Frankfurt at the end of December and we have a quick question.

* She is self-employed since May this year

* €2,000–2,500 average monthly income since May

* 500,000 THB in savings for over 3 months

* Tax returns for 2023 & 2024, but from working-student employment (self-employment started only in May)

We’ve heard that the Frankfurt embassy often asks for tax returns from previous years.

👉 How does the embassy usually handle cases where the applicant has only recently become self-employed?

👉 Is it a problem if older tax returns are not from self-employment?

Thanks a lot for any recent experiences! 🙏

Hey Everyone,

I applied for DTV a few weeks ago (Thai Embassy Munich) and haven’t received it yet.

I am arriving in Thailand tomorrow!

Which is not a problem for now, since I am just staying for 70 Days and can just use tourist visa + go to immigration for extension after 60 days

(Or maybe get an agency, who does this for me?)

BUT do you know if my DTV application is terminated, when I travel to Thailand without it? Because in the application they asked for my flight and day of arrival😬

That would be very sad to just spend the money for nothing

Thanks for your help!

Hi i recently applied for a dtv in Hanoi on the 6th Dec through a language school but was rejected on the 11th Dec without requesting additional documents or any given reason. I had bank statements with well over the minimum however I did black out my account number.

I'm thinking of heading to Vientiane and reapplying. Should I use the same school papers or go through an agency and do Muay Thai.

Has any one had experience or shed some light on a second application.

Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, I am gathering some info concerning this process. I just found out in a website that the application for the DTV has to be made from the country you have your employment / country you live in? Is that true? Thanks a lot

Madrid embassy one month wait them an additional document request for documents that they had the year before that don’t expire.

Will it get approved before my flight shrug 🤷‍♀️

!!! HELP. REVERSED NAME!! !!

The system keeps reversing my name when I’m about to submit the DTV (middle name before first name). Is this ok?? (I DONT THINK SO)

- it is put correctly into the system

- I have tried to remake a new application to see if it was a glitch and didn’t work.

Is this normal or do I need to contact the Thai Embassy in Hanoi?

While we were living in Thailand in 2022, we successfully applied and were granted the LTR-WP and dependents visas.

We are currently in NZ and my passport is expiring October 2026. The first five year period for my LTR visa expires in 2028. I don't intend at this stage to be back in Thailand until May 2026, at which stage I would have less than six months on my passport, so would have had to renew it.

I am wondering about the best way to renew my passport and get my LTR visa transferred to the new passport - can this be done at the Thai Embassy in NZ?

Inquiry for DTV visa cancellation process

I’m planning to apply for a Non-Immigrant B visa for work.

Currently, I hold a DTV visa issued by the Thai Embassy in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.

I’ve tried to check the DTV cancellation process:

♦️I asked immigration officers in Chiang Mai, but they said they aren’t fully sure. They told me my DTV will be automatically cancelled when I enter Thailand with a new visa from outside the country.

♦️I also emailed the Phnom Penh Thai Embassy for clarification but haven’t received any reply.

⚠️Recently, I applied for a Non-B visa in Laos, but my application was cancelled (as shown in the screenshot).

They said "my passport bio page image was unclear, even after I re-submitted it in JPEG format.

and in addition you still have DTV and IB visa issued from Thailand Embassy in Phnom Penh.Please contact them to cancel them before you entering Thailand with a new visa. "

Is there anything I can do here in Laos to resolve the DTV visa issue, without needing to travel back to the Thai Embassy in Phnom Penh for cancellation?

But Phnom Penh Thailand embassy hasn’t replied to my emails, and I am currently in Laos.

For context, my visa history is:

1st Non-B → then DTV in cambodia, Phnom Penh→ now applying for Non-B in Laos, Vientiane.

So I’m wondering:

👉 Has anyone experienced the same issue when switching from DTV to Non-B visa?

👉 Is there anything I should prepare or be careful about regarding the DTV cancellation or passport submission before applying my non b visa again ?

Any information or advice would be really appreciated. Thank you! 🙏
