I applied for my visa at the embassy in Cambodia on August 11th. I'm unsure the turnaround time on applications being processed, but I know some individuals that are still waiting and applied earlier than me.

Of course, the ongoing conflict is likely affecting the time for processing, but when I initially applied, I was told they were open.

I'd rather get my application processed sooner than later, so I'm debating on cancelling it and applying at Jakarta instead.

My concerns:

1. What if it took one more day and they finally decided to review it.

2. What if it takes a long time for them to cancel it.

3. Am I able to have two active DTV applications at once?

I don't really care about the fee, just speed.

Hi everyone! After the embassy requested additional documents, how long did it take for your approval or rejection? Also, how did you translate your documents (they request not to use a “machine” to translate)? And can I redact my clients’ personal information on my invoices? Thanks!

My daughter (22), a dual Thai and Australian citizen will be graduating about this time next year (2026) from an Australian University.

To attend the ceremony, we would need a visa for my Thai wife (we are all permanent residents since 2010 in Japan, legally married for 25 years).

People (former colleagues from my employment before I retired) with Thai wives, were telling me it may take months to get a visa for my wife (she has never been to Australia). We would need a 2 weeks visa for her, I have Australian passport.

Hello everyone, I applied for a Thailand tourist visa from Bangladesh on 29th July through the official Thailand visa website, but my application status still shows ‘Processing’. Has anyone faced a similar delay or knows the usual processing time? Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

I'm currently in Thailand but back in the UK for 2 weeks in October and wish to apply for a DTV (I'm a UK citizen) - just trying to get my ducks in a row 🦆🦆🦆

Will a monzo statement be OK? Does the money have to be in your regular account or will a savings pot be ok? If I submit my paperwork before hand - will the 2 weeks be sufficient? Also, still undecided on whether to do the soft power or remote work option. I'm doing muay Thai anyway and can get a sponsered letter and can work remotely with a contract if needed- what's a better option for success? Thanks for any support. 🇹🇭🙏

Hey, does anyone know what the better option for me is? I’m traveling to Vietnam and want to apply for the DTV visa from there. I’m self-employed / run a business in Germany, so I think I could qualify for that type of visa.

However, I only have 10 days in Vietnam before I want to return to Thailand. Would it be smarter to go with the Sports Visa since it’s faster? Also, what’s the cheapest option that actually works?

Thanks a lot!
