Dunno if this helps, but this is how it all took place for me...

I applied DTV (eVisa)

Status was 'Peding Document Check' for over 5 weeks!!! 😣😣🤧

Phone reply: Write an email

Email reply: Wait Patiently

😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

Finally, I walk-in to the consulate during visa-visiting-hours, on a thursday, this is 5+ weeks after I applied ...

Within 30 seconds they check that all is in order and make it 'Pending Approval'

Three days later (Sunday) 9pm (at night) Approved. 🙂

Then apply for my spouse, Next working day it moves to 'pending approval'. A week or so later, it's Sunday again, and BOOM, 1pm (afternoon) Approved. 🙂

UPDATE: *After 50 days I have been approved for the DTV Visa. I have contacted them by email (consuladotailandia @ gmail . com) asking if they need any more documents because it has been more than 1 month, and the only answer was asking me when I was going to Thailand. From there I guess they schedule the approvals so as not to have the months lost if the trip is not close yet. Another user told me that the approval was scheduled, and apparently it was also my case because I received the visa at 12:06AM. Besides, the Thai embassy in Madrid in August was also on holiday. *

Hi! I would like to ask the group if anyone has had the same experience.

I am applying online for the DTV in Spain (Thai Embassy Madrid). I started the enquiry on 25.07.24... had to upload some extra documents on 1.08.24 (bank statements, proof of salary and flight ticket).

This was checked on the same day and since then the status has been pending approval.

I often see here that most people get their visa after a few days. Is it sometimes normal that it takes so long?

My flight to Thailand is at the beginning of October but I will be in Malasia before then.

What should I do? Wait a little bit longer or get in touch with the consulate asap?

TIA

Hello everyone! How long does it take for them to approve you visa?, Mine has been stuck in processing for 2 days - and going on a 3rd day soon.
