Hi everyone,

I went to Taiwan Taipei Thai embassy on Wednesday Dec 17 9am to apply soft power Muay Thai they told me to come bakc at 3 pm and came late so they told me to come back the next day 3pm. They asked me a few questions like how long have you been in Thailand what do you do for work do you have a Thai bank account they asked me when I first came to Thailand 2018 as a tourist in and out and got stuck out when covid happened. Officially moved to Thailand when I opened a business and worked in it because of covid business slowed down a lot amd we shut it down. After shutting it down I did a education visa and tried to apply for,the Thai elite visa but got refused because education visas were frowned upon (a blessing for me I’d say) and the DTV came out applied for it and got approved picked up my passport.

Now I’m having trouble applying for a motorbike license went to 2 places they both refused because I didn’t have a work permit.im under 50 retired. Anyone know a legit place in Bangkok preferably sathon Rama 3 area.

Thank you all in Advance for taking the time to read this.

Has anyone actually been denied entry and turned away at the airport on a successful DTV, without option to pay some scam fee to get in? If so what were the circumstances of that denial?

## DTV approved but with error.

I'm italian holding an italian passport, living in Malta. Just got my DTV approved but in the vista it's stated:

Passport / TD: Malta

I assume it should be Italy.

Nationality is correct though.

Trying to call the embassy but no reply now.

Is this going to be an issue?

Is there anyone meet situation like "delivered visa by email" but cannot see any visa in your email ? I sure that my email address is correct. It has happened like this for 2 days. Should I contact to The Royal Thai consulate or continue waiting ? Thanks!

Potential problem discovered today. Some immigration offices may ask you for proof your bank deposit came from abroad. Many people use online banks like Wise. But Wise send from their Wise London bank to a partner bank in Thailand, and then on to your bank. So your deposit's code in your Thai bank is not from abroad. Immigration can therefore make this an obstacle - that needs overcoming - to get your visa. Note: not all offices or officers ask for this apparently.

UPDATE: According to others, it seems this problem has been solved by Wise giving an option to send "funds for longstay". If, like me however, you sent the funds before this option was available, the problem remains. You will most likely have to resend the funds from abroad. My local office will not accept the Wise (funds sent) statement as proof.

Hello everyone! I hope you’re all doing great. I have encountered some visa issues and would greatly appreciate it if anyone with similar experience could provide some insight and advice.

I left Thailand last Friday after a 60-day stay in Phuket and would like to reenter the country as soon as possible. I applied for an E-Visa on Sunday and it’s still pending approval. The reason why I applied for an E-visa despite having a 60-day visa exemption for my passport is because the immigration officer told me to do so the last time I reentered the country just a few days after my departure.

I do have a prior commitment that requires me to get back to Phuket as soon as possible. Do you think I should just try to fly into the country before my E-visa is approved, hoping to get another 60-day visa exemption? Or do you think I should really wait until the E-visa is approved?

All help is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much!

Help - DTV visa

It's been 11 days on 14 days and they request for the thrisd time my company registration (I have all the document and submit them every time). Anyone facing the same issue?

Do you know if it's denied if I lose my pavement?

Thank you

I'm super stressed don't understand why it's not working

Interesting news for content creators (the daring ones 😝 mostly): I've noticed some people in this group asking if this was allowed. Now, you might have your answer.

I have a valid residence permit sticker of another country, but my DTV was issued in another country (which is not my home country). Messy, I know. Could this raise issues?

Can any Pakistanis share if you've had success or issues doing a border run to Cambodia, Laos, or Vietnam? Not sure where to go without issues.
