Hello, we would like to apply for the DTV Softpower visa. Our story in brief:
We applied for the first time in Germany at the end of April. It was rejected because the course only lasted 12 days instead of the minimum 6 months. The cooking school recommended this course to us, and to date, no other course has been rejected except for us.
We entered Thailand on May 21st. We left on May 29th for Vietnam, Hanoi, and applied again there, but this time for a 1-year course at the same school.
Rejected again in Hanoi – this time without explanation. However, our cooking school told us today that the exact week we applied for the visa in Hanoi, the consulate was very strict and there were sometimes up to 6 rejections a day.
We submitted both applications through the Issa Compass agency.
On June 4th, we entered Thailand without a visa, but I returned on June 4th. I left immediately due to a death in the family and traveled to Germany, re-entering Thailand on June 14th.
We would now like to extend our visa-free stay by 30 days and then try to apply for the DTV again in September, as the agency advised us not to do so again for another three months (it was rejected on June 2nd, so we’re commuting to September).
Which consulate is the „best“? Better saying: Where did you have the best experience?
Edit: People who have real documents but want to try by themselves. Please read this. I went to embassy and learnt 500k should be in account for 3 months or should be stable. Not ok with ending balance 500k even though it is your real money.
I have just got rejected mail in Hanoi. I believe I attached every documents. I have sent the clarification email and am waiting for the reply.
1. Myanmar Nationality
2. Australia based company
3. Submitted company registration, employment contract, remote permission, Company profile, resume, portfolio link, cover letter indicating that I am not working for Thailand company, payslips 3 months, Wise transfer email, Company website.
4. Vietnam Entry Stamp, Hotel booking
5. Bank statement 6 months with Ending balance 500k
My question is should I resubmit in Hanoi or better apply in HCMC?
Planning on visiting Thailand for the 9th time. The first few times I got a 90 day visa and the last few were 60 day visas + 30 day extensions. The last time I went out I provided an acceptance letter from a Muaythai gym with a registration number. I also provided everything else you need to provide for the 90/60 day visas. Is there anything else I need to provide for the DTV when it comes to muaythai purposes and are there any reasons why an application could be turned down? (The more reasons you list the better) I can also provide bank statements showing significant funds. I've had to result to creating a facebook to ask this since the Royal Thai embassy London haven't replied to any of my emails. It says there are no refunds when applying for an E-Visa so would prefer to know before I apply and pay as this is a new visa and just wanted to make sure I get everything right. Any help would be much appreciated.
Hi everyone. Just want to share my application experience in Vientiane. I went for my appointment this morning and got sent away twice for lack of documents. I hope this post will allow others to be better prepared.
I went to the embassy with the following documents;
1. Application form with 2 photos attached
2. 6 months of bank statement showing more than 500K baht every month
3. Employment certificate stating my position and that my job is entirely remote
4. Official company registration document with government stamp
5. Passport data page & Laos entry stamp
6. Hotel booking confirmation
7. Document showing my residential address (I use my country issued identification card with address stated)
First rejection:
After looking through my documents the officer wants me to show prove of my salary being credited into my bank account. I left the embassy to print the statements which showed the salary being transferred into my account.
Second rejection:
After looking at the statements, the officer wants to know how do I prove that the money credited is my salary and also wants me to provide employment contract. I left the embassy again this time to contact my employer to write a letter stating my salary for the months shown in the bank statement and an employment contract.
My documents was finally accepted and I paid 10K baht, receive a paper with the date for passport collection.
After reading through this group for a month, I thought the employment certificate indicating my work position and stating my work is entirely remote is enough. Turns out I need to provide employment contract. The bank statements conclusion too wasn’t enough, I have to show full statements with salary credited and also a letter from employer stating the salary.
Hopefully all is good and I get my passport back with the visa.
Does anybody know why my 90 day online could be rejected ? I did it many times in person. This is the first time after I reentered with an reentry visum about 90bdays ago. It is 12 days BEFORE the actual due date.
I work for American company in a different country. I asked my company to provide the company certificate for the DTV visa, but they sent me a certificate of the company that is located in Thailand. Is it enough for the visa or I should ask for the certificate in my country?
Friendly advice: If you will apply for a DTV visa (in my case I was in person in Penang), do not use a broker statement to prove your funds, my application was rejected for that reason, 🙏.
Hearing so many successful application on DTV, am curious on any cases of rejection? As i am planning to make a trip to neighbourhood country of Thailand. Just want to be well prepared in documents to avoid waste trip and whats the reason of rejection for these cities (Vientiane, Hanoi, HCMC, Cambodia)
