I applied and paid for the DTV application online as a freelancer, from Canada, on September 9. Today on September 18, my application status is still pending document check.

The flight arrival date to Thailand I submitted is October 16, 2025.

Is this timeline normal?

It seems many people in this group are getting progress sooner. Thank you.

I applied to the Jakarta Embassy on Monday, September 1st, but as of today (September 6th), the status is still showing as “Pending Document Check.” Is this normal? DTV Soft power

Question:

Hey everyone, I’m currently in Hanoi waiting on my DTV (Soft Power – Muay Thai) to be approved. I submitted all my documents and paid the fee on June 4th, and as of June 6th, the application is marked as pending approval.

I know things likely slowed down because of the public holidays and a backlog, but it still feels like it’s taking a while. I’m aware the embassy doesn’t respond to emails, but has anyone had any luck going there in person to check on the status or get an idea of how much longer it might take?

Hanoi’s been great, but I’m more than ready to get back to Thailand. Appreciate any advice—thanks in advance!
