Hello everyone! I submitted my DTV application online in Ho Chi Minh City on November 2nd. The status changed to "Document Check" on November 4th, then to "Pending Approval" on November 5th. Since then, there have been no updates.

Has anyone else who applied online around November 2nd received any updates or approvals? Just trying to gauge the current processing times.

Looking forward to hearing about your experiences!

DTV in HCMC: Approved

Big thanks to this amazing group, it really helped a lot!

Arrived 28.10 and applied as soon as I got to my hotel, it was almost 3AM when I submitted it.

Documents: photo + passport Company's registration + documents to prove that I'm the sole owner

Bank statement for the last 3 months with over 500k THB in there ( only 5 transactions in the last 3 months since I don't use that account much and it was fine)

Portfolio: my website links, YouTube channel links as well as screenshots from the studio page where it shows analytics and explaining only owner/manager could see that part of the channels)

Explaining that I own the websites and 3 of these YouTube channels + manage on YouTube channel for the client + what I do and it is all done remotely

Wise payment slip from my client that she paid me (through her personal account though and it was fine)

No extra documents needed. Approved Friday 22:53 (!!) I was surprised to get approved outside of the business hours but sure am glad I did and can go to Thailand today instead of spending the weekend here.

Edit: forgot to add proof of location. For that I gave them arriving to Vietnam visa stamp + Wise account statement where last 2 transactions are from Vietnam

Has anyone been approved when providing their own business bank statements instead of personal?

Visa has just been approved but surley this a mistake from the embassy? Valid from 26th October 2024 until 26th October 2024? 🤔

DTV approved today from Vietnam HCMC!!! I’m so happy!

I applied as a freelancer on Tuesday morning and received the e-visa this afternoon (by e-mail).

They asked 3 times for further documents (on Tuesday afternoon, this morning and this afternoon).

So it was stressful. I am finally feel relieved.🙏

Currently awaiting DTV visa approval in LA, I seek guidance on ticket requirements for travel to Thailand. Considering my indefinite departure date and need for multiple country exits and re-entries, is it mandatory I secure a round-trip or one-way ticket?

Just for info, because I found the group helpful. London office is currently less than 48 hour turnaround at present.

I submitted what they asked for on 17/10 at 13:30. I also included in addition, accommodation, return flight, and self assessment.

They came back the following morning around 10am asking for companies house registration. I submitted that immediately, and the visa was approved the following morning, just before noon.

Happy days 🙏🏼

Hello,

Been seeing a lot of approvals of the DTV on soft power for Muay Thai. Does anyone know of a Thai Cooking school that has accreditation for the DTV and/or has already students approved on the DTV visa? I'm not interested in muay thai.

Hi, anyone got their dtv visa approved from new delhi or india, pleaee share your experience and the docs you submitted to support your application. Also, did you show 10l balance or 500000 bht, and were the funds seasoned ie had this balance for a continuous period of 6 months. Thanks in advance ☺️

Anyone been approved by Phnom Penh online system??
