Pending document check means they haven't checked the documents yet right? For soft power there aren't really many documents to check. How can this take such long time?

hello to all, does anyone know the current deadlines for a DTV from Laos? Thanks in advance

Bonjour a tous, quelqu'un connait les délais actuels pour un dtv depuis le laos? Merci d avance

Applying for DTV but the Muay Thai gym are saying they need 30 days to process my application!? And not to book a flight for 40 days "just in case"! Anyone else had this?

Seems an extremely long time to wait for a piece of paper to say that I've signed up for a Muay Thai course?

DTV Reply Estimated Time from Spain?

Hello 👋

Its been more than 2 weeks, and I need to leave Vietnam soon.

Is it normal ?

DTV visa application - Embassy of Paris

Hello everyone, I applied for my visa on July 17th and I haven't heard back yet. My boyfriend got his visa in about 5 days.

So, has anyone applied for a DTV visa through the Paris embassy recently? Do you know how long it might take at the moment?

Thanks ☺️

I applied for the non OA visa through the New York consulate on July 6, and it's still being processed. My flight is in about 8 days. Should I be concerned?

Hi,

I am coming to Thailand for 5 weeks at the end of August.

I am then back in the UK for 3 1/2 weeks before heading back to Thailand for just over 5 months, from the beginning November.

For the November trip, I was thinking that the 6 month METV would be the best visa to get.

If so, will the 3 1/2 weeks that I am back in the UK be enough time to get the visa.

TIA X

Hi have just booked my flight to Thailand arriving 19th October, when would be best time for me to apply for non o visa from London, have most paperwork ready thanks
