I want to thank all the people who have shared their experiences with the process, it helped me to streamline my paperwork. My partner also helped me to organize everything. Here's my story:

I applied on Dec. 5. They requested more information on Dec. 8, then requested even more information on the 9th. They approved me on Dec. 11th.

I tried to redact some client information and they weren't having it. It made me a little uneasy but I guess it is what it is.

I applied through the Hanoi Embassy in Vietnam. I was shocked on how quick it was and the cost was MUCH lower than expected.

I did have a Thai visa in the past when I used to teach so I'm not sure if that swayed the application or not.

Either way thanks again, I combed the discussion threads and it was very helpful. :)

I'll share once more when we arrive in Thailand in a few weeks.

Just got my DTV and will be entering Thailand from Oz in January. My entry point will

Just got my DTV and will be entering Thailand from Oz in January. My entry point will be Hat Yai International Airport. My agent recommended one of the Bangkok airports and just wanted to know if anyone else first entered via Hat Yai? Thanks in advance and yes I know all about Hat Yai as I have already done 2 x 90 days there.

Has anyone recently left Thailand after completing their 180-day stay on a DTV visa and tried to return a few days later? What are your experiences?

Has anyone applied for a Tourist Visa in London recently? If so how long did it take for the visa to be authorised? I understand they state its currently 15 working days but was wondering if people have been getting earlier than 15 days.

We've been hearing a lot of rejected attempts in Hanoi over the past few weeks, both from soft power and workcation. But are there lucky people out there who got it successfully in the past month or so and how long did it take? Share with the rest of us your experience and give us some hope. haha.

Another super smooth re-entry, in Phuket this time, with my DTV (Workcation / German). No questions asked.

That is how the DTV works in reality for real people and not anonymous fearmongerers 😜

Enjoy your time in this beautiful country everyone 😊😍☀️

I am a Canadian citizen

Is there anyone here that has had received dtv visa from Canada? Canadian friends please help

Has anyone applied for a DTV from Turkey and obtained a visa?

Well we were dreading flying back into CNX on our DTVs this time, having read a few horror stories. But we picked the smiley young woman and she probably was nice to us because we're over 60😃. It was a relief, particularly as we'd just returned from stressful family stuff. I guess if you stay positive and you're legit it will be ok.

Has anyone in Jakarta applied for the DTV visa using a Wise or Revolut account? How did it go, and what was your experience like?
