For the people who have applied at the Taipei location - I applied this morning - dropped off everything needed and all the officer worker said was ‘come back today at 4pm’. She didn’t said approved or not, all she said was ‘I don’t know’. She didnt take the money yet either …

Are you suppose to pay upon pick up?

Talk about keeping us hanging for the next 6 hours lol

Is this the same experience you all got from applying in Taipei?

“Processing: Pending approval”

Anyone experienced any surprises or rejections after this status?

How long before the approval came through for you after this status.

Thanks in advance for any help.

DTV visa approved - my experience:

Currently in the UK so I applied via the e-visa website, so the UK Thai consulate handled everything.

Couple of interesting points to mention:

- it only took 4 days to approve

- the 500k was only transferred to my UK bank account a week before I applied. I only provided my august 2024 bank statement - they didn't ask for anything else

- part of that 500k was a small loan from my parents. When they transferred the money to my bank account they put "loan" as the reference. This didn't cause any issues or raise any questions.

- I applied via the medical tourism route. I asked my dentist to write me a letter detailing a couple of appointments that I have during September and next year.

Overall, I would say that my experience of applying for the DTV was incredibly easy and straightforward. Very quick and no questions asked.

Happy to answer any questions relating to my specific experience.

UK Passport holders. How long did it take to get your 60 day TR visa approved on the evisa system once payed ?. Thanks. David

Hello! Anyone applied for Thai e-visa these days? My payment isn't going through, no matter what card I use. Anyone else faced the same issue?
