Greetings,

i follow this Group for a While now and i am now ready to submit my Visa Application.

I take the DTV-Soft Power Option

Consulate: Germany Frankfurt

Muay Thai: 3 Month Tiger Eye MMA

I have everything ready to apply i just have one Question:

In the Application Information it asks me for my Employment Details, even tough its the Soft Power DTV. I am currently Employed but wont be by the time i go to Thailand if i get the Visa. would you still put in my current employment or just say i am not employed anymore? Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks:)

Hi Everyone!

I emailed Japan Embassy to apple Japan visit visa with DTV. They emailed back I can apply visit visa woth DTV. When I checked the process to apply visa , they asked documents for No.5 section. But ,as a DTV holder for workcation status, I don’t have work permit . What should i do? Is there anyone who got Japan visit visa with DTV? Please share me about that. I am greatly appreciate for this.

Good afternoon everyone, I hope you are well.

I am French, living in Uzbekistan and looking to relocate in Thailand. My current work contract goes up to the end of august. Would it be enough to apply for the DTV?

Another question, as living in Uzbekistan the attached consul is in Moscow. Is it possible to do the application fully online ? Not that I would not like to visit Moscow.

Thanks a lot for your help and good luck for all

Approved today in Hanoi embassy (freelancer status),

I found it quite easy. I provided these documents:

- Financial proof (3 months of 500K BHT)

- 2 framework agreements with agencies I work for

The framework agreements were not in English, so I simply translated them with ChatGPT.

They asked me for 2 more things:

- passport stamp as proof of arrival

- registration document of an agency I work for

This registration doc was the most tricky part. I asked one of the agencies to send me the registration letter and they did that. However, as it was not in English as well, I translated it also with ChatGPT. The translation and formatting was the most time consuming part of the whole process.

I applied on 21st of January and it was approved today. Last week the embassy didn't work though because of Tet, so you could say that the whole procedure took one week effectively.

Those of you that were asked for an In Person Interview, can you please share what you were asked? And the embassy you applied at?

Hey is it possible to apply for a business visa while I'm in Thailand with the tourist visa?

Hi everyone,

Thanks to the participants of this group for their activity, which helps in understanding the visa application process and answers many questions (I just used the search and didn’t have to ask anything myself).

I submitted my documents on the night of January 16 in Hanoi. The next day, they requested an entry stamp for my arrival in the country and a more recent bank statement (mine was issued a couple of weeks before submission).

On January 23, I received my visa.

After that, my wife submitted her application on the same day.

The next day, they requested a notarized translation of our marriage certificate (Fortunately, there is an embassy of my country).

We obtained the translation and submitted it just before the Lunar New Year (TET), but we got stuck for another week because everything was closed for the holidays.

This morning, on February 3, my wife received her DTV visa, and tomorrow we’re heading to our beloved Thailand.

Thanks again to everyone here!

Hi there,

I’m currently applying for a tourist visa online. I’m actually in Cambodia but I will enter Thailand via Laos, is it a problem?

For the supporting documents I uploaded my entry stamp in Cambodia as proof of current location but for « travel booking confirmation » I will put my bus ticket from Laos to Thailand.

Is it valid or will it get denied ?

Guys, I see a lot of confusion about this: do you have to have the minimum 500,000 THB for at least 1 month? 3 months? or 6 months? I can prove a good flow of income for the last 2 years. But 5 months ago I made an investment and I no longer had that minimum amount. However, I have had at least 500,000 baht in the bank for exactly 3 months, and now I have even more. Do you think I could have a problem because 4 months ago I did not have the minimum?

Hello, I would like to know whether I can apply DTV under workcation if my employment contract is stating place of work in SG (employment contract dat since 2022). Currently I am working in Singapore as an IT professionals with hybrid working arrangement (2days in office a week). Please let me know if anyone got approved in Singapore Embassy with similar situation?
