I am currently applying for a DTV visa in Taiwan. However, my application was cancelled for the following reason:

"Your visa application has been cancelled. Wrong Personal Info: Country/Territory of Passport / TD does not match with passport."

I suspect this is because I entered “Consulate-General of Japan in Detroit” as the place of issue. My passport is Japanese, but it was issued in Detroit. I believe this might have caused the error. I am thinking of reapplying, but do you think it would be approved if I set the place of issue to “Japan” instead? Has anyone experienced a similar situation?

Hi all,

am looking at a DTV. Would love to hear from people that have actually applied for this recently. Would appreciate some advice, especially when and where to apply. Am in Hua Hin at the moment and leaving Thailand in 2 weeks.

I have accommodation booked for the month of September in Hua Hin.

Will be in Cape Town for August where I would have the whole month to tackle the DTV.

Please no hearsay 🙏

I see a lot of disinformation spread by anonymous accounts. I don’t think there’s any reason to be anonymous who agrees?

I'm applying for the DTV under the Workcation category in HMC.

I've been asked: "Please provide details about your current work, including the examples of your work, along with any supporting materials that demonstrate your experience and qualifications."

I've already submitted:

* LinkedIn Profile PDF

* Employer Company Commercial License

* Employment Confirmation Letter

* Employment Contract

I don't know what else they want. I'm a VP of Engineering working full-time remotely (not a freelancer), so I don't have a traditional portfolio. I'm planning to submit a concise work summary outlining my role and responsibilities, along with a notarised copy of my university degree. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there anything else you think I should add? Thanks!!

Quick question about speeding up the DTV application:

I’ve heard that some applications have been stuck in review for over 2 weeks.

I also heard that a few people reached out via Line to check on the status.

Would it be wise to do the same if my application has been pending for about 4–5 days? Also… has anyone ever tried asking if there’s a way to *pay* for an express review? 😅

Curious to hear if anyone has experience with this or any tips to share!

Thankss

I am on DTV. On first entry I stayed in a hotel then got a condo.

I am currently out of Thailand and will be back in a few weeks.

If the IO asks about my accommodation, Can I mention that I have got a condo on an annual lease? And show if the lease document if asked.

Or rather, I should do a hotel booking and cancel it later.

What people are doing usually?

I am sure they hardly ever ask for accommodation, but just in case.
