Hi all,

A shock to the system combined with a degree of ignorance.

My initial 12 month Non - O extension of stay (based on being over 50) expires in the first week of July and I intended to apply for a further 12 month extension based on the monthly income method of 12 consecutive months of international transfers (minimum 65,000 baht each month).

The issue is as follows:-

My Kbank branch informed me that my monthly deposits have been transferred from my Australian Credit Union to the Bank of America in Bangkok and therefore the transfer from them to my Kasikorn Bank account is not deemed to be an international transfer. The statements refer them to be automatic transfers (I was aware of that but still thought they counted as an international transfer).

Has anyone had similar issues and is there a way around it. I am meeting with a visa agent here in Chiang Mai on Monday.

Regards!

Graham

Hi everyone, does anyone managed to get a reason from Hanoi Embassy (or any Embassy) if DTV application is cancelled ? I applied with soft power

Sunday 25: submit and paid

Tuesday 27: additional documents requested and I provided

Later Tuesday 27: pending approval

Just now: application cancelled

I have no idea what I do wrong, I follow all the advices found in this group. I prepared only accurate document and double check all information I input on website.

I’m lost because I was really counting on this visa and I don’t know what to changes for next application, as I don’t know what was wrong on this one…

Is there any issues with the visa website right now. This morning I couldn't process the payment for my visa application. Spent 30 minutes on the phone with my bank and he was in contact with Visa cardholder to see why it wasn't going through. They verified that no suspicious activity and apparently the bank that handles payment processing is in Hong Kong. After all of that it still wouldn't go through. I checked the group and saw if there's a difference in any addresses then it'll fail. But I only have 1 address throughout the application and I entered it correctly. EDIT TO ADD. After another couple of hours of trying and calling the bank it finally went through.

Can’t get Thai Visa website to work. 100% need for Visa exemption now?

My friend is applying in Hanoi. The system has said 'payment failed' 3 times, using 3 different cards. He has changed browser from Chrome to Firefox, same thing. Now it just signs them out and returns to sign-in screen when they try to pay. The info is all correct. They think it might have something to do with addresses, but it's not clear how that would work, and the payment screen doesn't have any fields for address info anyway. There is nothing even showing up in bank app as pending or declined. Any advice would be appreciated 🙏

I submitted my application on Monday in Vientianne and had 2 requests for further documents (passport picture and financial evidecne. I uploaded those and yesterday the status went to pending approval. But today I got 2 emails again asking for the same documents. But if I login to the E-visa website it doesn't show I have to upload the documents like last time. It's still showing pending approval with no way to upload any extra documents. Has anyone experienced the same?

Hello all, please help🙏 Applied from Vietnam. Hanpi Embassy. UK passport, self-employed, UK business owner. visa cancelled: wrong personal info. Is it because of the middle name? Applied and inserted the middle name everywhere, however, the Companies House, Tax Return, Bank Statements have only initials, not full name like in the passport. I wonder if this is the problem?

This is meant as a warning. Do not use the embassy in Kuala Lumpur to obtain your DTV.

I was issued my DTV there and it was not for 5 years, but until the expiration of my passport...about 3 years, in my case.

Clearly, someone in KL did it wrong. However, it would appear that I have no recourse.

Hello. I need help. I tried to apply for my DTV visa as a freelancer in Cambodia. And after 15 days, I received an email saying: "Your visa application has been cancelled. wrong country of passport."

Can I call to understand? Or is there nothing to do and I have to reapply in another country?

Thank you for your answers 🙏

Heads up for those applying:

I applied for the DTV on March 4th, and received a rejection today stating "*Mismatched date of birth on application (12 March 2025)*". I was told I have to reapply and pay again, and this time when I was filling out the application form, I noticed that when I uploaded my passport into the application, it automatically changed some of the information I already input manually.

It changed my birth date and the passport expiration date. So I'm assuming that this is what happened the first time. So, learn from my mistake and triple check your information before moving on to the next page, even if you think you already confirmed.
