French citizen in Thailand needs to apply for DTV soon. Remote worker. Where would be the best place to apply? If you provide a location, let me know also the delays.

Thanks.

Hi all,

I applied for the DTV visa from Australia in mid-May, with a departure date to Thailand in mid-July. I still haven’t heard anything from them about my application, it has been on “pending approval” for about a month now.. any advice?

I’m a remote consultant working for a company that’s based in Australia, if that helps.

Has anyone had experience applying from the Australian embassy recently?

Thank you!

I apply dtv from jakarta with 6 month muay thai tiger eye

applied 23rd morning

still pending document check

Hello,

I applied for the DTV visa on May 6th via the Los Angeles consulate with the e visa platform, as a digital nomad.

I received a request for additional documents on May 23rd and I submitted them the same day.

I have yet to receive a status update after the status changed to "pending document check" upon submission.

The website for this consulate says 15 business days for initial response, and if additional documents are requested, it will take another 5 business days.

My planned flight leaves June 20th(US).

It is currently the 16th and I have yet to hear anything.

I saw one post on reddit about delays with additional document processing through this consulate, but it took 11 business days after additional document submission for him.

It has been longer for me.

Has anyone had similar experiences, or any ideas on how to expedite this?

I have emailed the consulate but no response, can't contact via phone either.

I applied for a 90 day non O visa based on marriage about 20 or so days ago, then they asked me for more information about two days later witch I sent them on the Evisa. I haved booked and paid for my plane tickets for jest over two weeks time but haven't heard back from them. Anyone any idea? What I should do.

Let this be a warning to anyone who is curious: Do not apply for your DTV in Spain.

Just don't.

I'm a legal resident here who applied over a month ago and I still have not gotten a response. Now I have to leave Spain for a family emergency, and I'm basically begging the embassy to give me an update on the additional materials they requested. If you have the option, apply somewhere else, anywhere else. The stress alone makes me want to scream.

Hello,

I've applied more than 10 working days ago and it seems like my application hasn't been processed yet. Would it be a good idea to just go at the Embassy physically and ask about it or could they get annoyed by this and reject my application? That way I could also answer any questions they might have on the spot but that may backfire so I'd rather ask first. Thank you

Has anyone else incurred any delays in their DTV requests from last week due to Songkran?

We requested in Ho Chi Min last week on the 7th of April and are still waiting..

Anyone else waiting on a DTV visa in Ho Chi Minh?

I applied on April 1st and it’s still showing as “pending approval”… anything I can do to speed things up?
