Hi everyone, I applied for the Thai DTV visa and my application status has been showing “Pending Approval / Processing Pending Approval” for the past 5 days.

I was asked to submit additional documents twice, which I’ve already done — just wondering if this is normal?

•How long did it take for your status to change after this stage?

•Is “Pending Approval” a good sign, or are there still chances it could get rejected?

Also, can I travel to another country while waiting, or do I need to stay in my home country until the visa is approved?

Any insights or experiences would be really helpful 🙏🏼

Quick approved in Warsaw :)

30 july apply for DTV

30 July afternoon ask for additional docs (all passport pages, id card)

31 july status change to pending approval

5 August morning visa approved 😀

Time for prepare luggage and start new life 😀

Workcation – Are multiple addresses okay?

Hi everyone,

I’m preparing to apply (Hanoi) and I’m a bit worried because my documents show two different addresses:

– My home address (on passport + bank statement)

– My work address in another country (on invoices and work related docs, as I’m registered as an individual entrepreneur there)

Has anyone had experience being approved/denied with a similar setup?

Any advice would be super helpful. thanks!

Hi everyone,

I applied for the 5-year DTV as a Cyprus tax resident (Non Domicile) and company owner, but mistakenly selected UAE as my current location because Cyprus has no embassy and I thought that field only chose the processing embassy.

I submitted all Cyprus-based docs, then got asked to provide UAE documents. I need to know if I can fix the existing application to reflect Cyprus instead, or if I must reapply (and pay again).

Also: I am a Non Domicile (60 days) in Cyprus. I have no residency card—can I use rental agreement + utility bills + tax residency proof? And is a shareholder certificate enough to prove my business status? I'm not employed, my only source of income is through dividends being a shareholder and director of my company.

Did anyone have this situation? What's my best collection of papers to get the visa?

Hi everyone 👋🏻

I already have a DTV - I need to extend it next week (I will have been here for 6 months).

Can anyone please recommend a visa agent in Bangkok who can speed up the process at immigration (in and out of immigration as quick as possible)? I really don’t want to spend all day at immigration if I can help it.

Thanks 🙏🏻

Any Aussies in here who've applied for the DTV via Sydney Thai consulate? I'm just wondering what they accept as proof of 500k baht since it seems to differ between embassies? thank you!

(Also, what doc did you use for showing location?)

💡 Tips:

Since the visa officer cannot meet you in person, you need to carefully consider what information they might need. Think from their perspective — not just what you have or what you think is important, but what they might require to approve your case.

One small strategy I used: I didn’t apply right after arriving in Vietnam. Instead, I waited almost a month before submitting my application to avoid giving the impression that I came to Vietnam specifically for the DTV visa.

I reviewed every shared post in this group and spent 10 days preparing over 90 pages of documents. The preparation and the wait were intense and exhausting — but I did it. Regardless of whether it was worth it or not, I made it through.

I hope all of you have good luck in your journey!

Hi!

Hoping to get clarity and some help from all.

Just got my final approval document for thr LTR Wealthy Pensioner. Yay!

It was my understanding that I would next have to get a stamp issued in my passport. I live in

NYC.

Called NYC embassy twice-of course 2 different answers. They are now telling me i need to apply for the e-visa. Once that’s done i will get another document that i am supposed to take with me upon my next arrival in Thailand to get the stamp in my passport.

I litetally just got back and plan on moving permanently Oct 1. The issuance is valid for 60 days so does that mean i have to fly to Thailand to get the stamp, come back, them move on Oct 1?? Ugh. Or would the e-visa document give me a new timeline?

Any info greatly appreciated

Thx all.
