Good evening, dear expats in Thailand.

I’m seeking some advice regarding the Digital Nomad (DTV) visa. I’ve been living in Thailand for almost 11 years, but recently I canceled my work visa and switched back to a tourist visa.

I’m planning to apply for the DTV visa in September, but I’m not sure where I can submit the application, since I’m already in Thailand.

As a Filipino citizen, which country would be the easiest or most convenient for me to apply from? I also have a Thai bank account and plan to use it for the required bank statement.

Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

I should have included this in my previous question about the visa processing timeline. When I completed the application, I accidentally input the wrong end date. I should have used the same date as my health insurance expiration, but I wasn't aware of this requirement and instead wrote an end date approximately 360 days from my planned arrival date.

My insurance expires about 2 weeks before the one-year anniversary of my arrival.

When I contact the consulate about their anticipated visa completion date, should I also correct this information? They'll likely discover the discrepancy during processing anyway.

I applied for the DTV in Hanoi about a week ago. Can I travel to central Vietnam (which is linked to HCMC embassy, not Hanoi) while I wait for the visa to be processed, or do I have to stay around Hanoi?

Hi!

I’m waiting for my DTV visa to be processed in Vietnam.

Can I travel back to Thailand during this time and then return to Vietnam later for the interview?

I’ve already entered Thailand twice with a Visa on Arrival — will that be a problem?

Thanks for any help!

Hello. Applying from Lisbon. Can they invalidate an application for delay in the delivery of additional requested documents? My company is taking a few days to deliver a document they asked for 😔

Thanks
