Any Indians who recently got approved can tell me how much money you had in your bank account and for how long? Is 10 lakhs enough? Or 13.89 lakhs (converting 500k THB)? Especially those who applied at Chennai.

Update: I reapplied at the same embassy one week later, with 6 months muay thai, via "Issa Compass" agency, and sent more freelance work invoices, and got approved

My ? Is more opposite of most here. I have a female friend in Bangkok and she has tried 4x for a tourist visa and has been denied each time. Why is it so hard. What do we have to do to get a tourist visa. To USA. Thank you Didn’t know it was so difficult!

Denied in Taipei🥲

Type: remote worker (for 1 company, not freelance)

Situation: coming from non B visa

Heartbroken to say that I was denied in Taipei. It is a specific situation, as I have worked in Thailand, legally for 3 years. I accepted a remote job and came to Taipei to switch my visa type to DTV.

Even with a current contract and first payment made by current company (+600,000 tbh banked and consistent income for past 6 months from past job), they denied because they wanted me to have 6 months of income *from my current contract.*

Note: I also had everything else in order, including the employment letter (stating remote position), company registration documents etc.

The issue they had, specifically, was was that I hadn’t been in my current role for 6 months. Pretty much they told me to leave and try again in 6 months time when I am established at my new job. There was no remedying it with them.

— and genuinely this was so shocking because I’d never heard of this being the case for anyone else before. Am I wrong on this?

So, if you are coming from a non B and are switching to remote work, please be aware that this is the way Taipei approaches this scenario.

If you have a similar work history but successfully gotten a DTV visa, can you please comment? I’d really like to understand what else I can do and how I can better plan my application in the future.

Hi everyone!

This question is specifically for UK DTV visa holders, as it seems every embassy has its own set of rules.

This is my second attempt to get a DTV visa 😊 (my first try was in Penang this August). I’m currently in Thailand, and due to work, I’ll likely be flying to the UK in the next few days. I have a couple of questions:

1. Can I apply for the DTV visa online through the London embassy within the first or second day after my return to the UK?

1. For proof of residency, I have UK bank statements (personal account), a UK driving license (although it shows an old address), and *settled status* for living in the UK. Will this be an issue?

1. My main concern is proof of funds. My funds are in a WISE business account under my US-based company, where I’m the sole owner. This led to my rejection in Penang, as the account wasn’t in my personal name. How is this handled in the UK? As a freelancer, it’s common to use a business account, and with an LLC, the funds aren’t directly in my name. Despite providing proof of ownership, it wasn’t sufficient in Penang.

Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Anyone have any idea how long the process is for a thai female to get approved or denied for a tourist visa to the US? Any recommendations as to the best way to approach this?

Is there any reason if your LTR visa application is denied for non nefarious reasons you can't apply for the Elite?

Hi, can anyone advise me how to obtain my Thai girlfriends uk 6 months holiday visa. I’m hoping to bring her to the uk end of January. I’ve checked out some agents and they are quite expensive. I’ve looked at the government website and the application is very extensive . So basically looking for an easier way to apply for her visa. Thanks
