Maybe it's a dumb question. Still, can somebody tell me what I need to attach in "Document indicating current location"? My country of citizenship (my driving license or any utility bills), or where I am right now (at that time while submitting the documents)?

PS. I'm still in my home country...

Just got approved in Jakarta! Grateful for all the info / help I got from this group.

Here’s an overview of the process I went through. My advice is although Jakarta is smooth, don’t be like me and wait until last minute to apply.

I applied on May 29th. Got approved on June 11th. My stay permit (extended) in Indonesia expires June 13th.

I have a French passport and applied through soft power: 3 months via Tiger Eye - they were really helpful 💯

Submitted:

- proof of location: confirmation of my booking on Agoda with 2 nights booked then attached a letter mentioning that I plan on moving around in Indonesia while Visa is processing, stay permit in Indonesia, flight ticket to Denpasar (from BKK), and screenshot of my pinned location on Google maps

- proof of financial funds: 6 months bank statement of my savings with 500k+ baht, screenshot of the conversion from my currency to baht.

- paperwork sent to me by Tiger Eye Muay Thai

Submitted on May 29th. There were couple holidays in between.

Website was showing Pending Document Check for a few days.

June 9th I got an email asking to upload a proper Visa photograph. The one I uploaded originally I think wasn’t appropriate as I wasn’t wearing any sleeves so I took an proper Visa photo and submitted it.

I then called the embassy on the 11th to ask for an update as my Indonesia visa was coming to an end. I was told to wait. I patiently waited. Around 1pm I checked and it was « pending approval ». Then 6pm I received an email with the approval.

My last question on here so many of you were very helpful.... so trying again with another 😅... I applied for a nonO immigrant visa to the Royal Thai embassy in London on the 4th June.... here we are now on the 10th June, heard nothing and the status on the website is saying Pending Document check. I tried calling several times today, after 10 minutes on hold ...some robot tells me there is a technical fault and try later🫣... I fly out to Thailand on the 15th june... should I be worried? TIA

Hello

I would like to know the option from the group ?

First, I would like to know how can I get the visa extension From cambodia ?

How long is the process take and what is the cost to run the extension in Cambodia ?

Btw

I’m waiting the Visa Approval of DTV Visa of Thailand in Cambodia.

There is no update, So is that the best option to stay in the Cambodia for waiting the DTV Visa or move to another ?

Is that Okay or safe to move another country when applying the DTV Visa.

I would like to know the suggestion or recommendation from here.

Question: Just got my DTV Approved Da Nang (Ho Chi Minh Consulate.) Do I have to fly from Vietnam to Thailand to get my visa document? Or can I go to a neighbouring country for a trip and then from there (i.e Cambodia or Laos) and fly to Thailand? Basically, do I have to pass direct from Vietnam to Thailand to get the DTV visa document, or is it just put in my passport whenever I enter Thailand again from anywhere? It may be a silly question…I just wasn’t sure whether it had to be from Vietnam since it was processed by Ho Chi Minh Consulate…? Thanks!!!

My wife and I are presently divesting ourselves of our assets in preparation for retirement in Hua Hin.

As we are currently residing in the US, we plan to make Thailand our home by December 31st.

To ensure a smooth relocation, I have joined this group to conduct research and have noted that several members are experiencing difficulties with banking requirements. Following a review of the comments, I have surmised that hiring an agent would be the most advantageous approach.

I would like to inquire:

Is this assessment accurate?

Is it recommended that we hire an attorney or agent?

Could anyone suggest a trustworthy contact in the Hua Hin or Bangkok areas?

(Special recognition goes to Meta AI for a well written correction of my original post!)

Hello everyone, we are going to do the DTV in Cambodia in a couple of weeks. For the dependents, we have french birth and marriage certificates. We will get them translated in Thai or English but do we need to have the translation legalized by our embassy? Thanks!

We (my 2 kids and I) entered Bangkok international airport with the DTV for the first time on May 31th.

Everything went smooth. Just my 15 yo got a few questions, who are you here with, what’s your purpose of visiting?

They didn’t see me, but when I waved (we were in a different lane) she waved back and stamped the passport.

Also thank you to the person that shared his tip, about laminating the visa. This was very helpful.
