Anyone having / had problems with visa approval in Taiwan after an interview? My partner had to attend an interview yesterday and the website hasn't been updated, we phoned and they said the supervisor is still making a decision. We have a flight on Saturday but only a few hours to rebook it.

I have my DTV interview next week in Vientiane, I have read that they will email the outcome before 2pm after the interview. What experiences have people had lately for the actual time you end up with the email?

Also if accepted, I understand printing out the acceptance email for entry into thailand is recommeneded. Would it be possible to get in with the emailed digital copy oinly? Cheers

Is it possible to do a DTV visa interview in Savannakhet…or do I have to go to Vientiane…? Thanks for the factual answers.

Just got approved from Colombo Sri Lanka

Applied: december 1st in the evening

Requested additional documents (all passport pages only) december 2nd in the morning

Submitted all passort pages 16:00

December 3: got asked for an interview december 4th

Went to the interview was a little chat less then 5 minutes gave copies of all the documenets

Got approved in the evening at december 4th

Took less then 4 days.

Dtv -> freelancer

Seems like a super smooth process and didn’t got asked anything besides the things on the Thai Embassy website

They do require 6 months statements but it’s fine if the money was there for 3 months although I’m not sure if they only want final balance above 500k+ or 3 months 500k+

As I didn’t find to much information in the group about applying there wanted to share my experience.

It seems like it’s a very good embassy and goes super quick they told me 2 working days (additional documents will reset this)

Got mine in 3

In the interview, does Ambassador in Jakarta ask to show WISE account or Upwork Dashboard live on the mobile?

What else should I be prepared of?

Thanks.

Hi everyone,

Vientiane have requested an interview dated the 11th December.

Would it look rude if I emailed them to request an earlier date?

Just don’t think I can stay here for too long with my mental health issues. But they have been amazing with the visa process so far. Never expected them to review the documents so quickly.

Timeframe:

27th Nov 6.30pm - entered via Nong Khai land border

28th Nov 6.30am - submitted all workcation docs online

28th Nov 10.30am - paid visa fees at embassy

28th Nov 3pm - request for documents (clearer photograph)

29th Nov 22.30pm - request for interview

I am in Nusa Penida, Bali. I received Visa interview email today around 4:30 pm local time. The scheduled time for the interview tomorrow in Thai Embassy, Jakarta is 9:30 am Jakarta time. I can't attend the interview tomorrow morning because of the unavailability of the transport (Penida to Bali ferry). Did anyone ever reschedule their interview?

Updated:

I have rescheduled the interview via email.

Question:

Can I leave Indonesia after the interview is done? Or do I have to wait here until the approval?

Update:

I attended the visa interview today. At the end of the interview, the interviewer mentioned that I must not leave Indonesia before I get an update, and they might ask for more documents. But after 5-6 hours, I received the visa approval email.

Thanks to everyone who helped me with the information. I used a lot of information / helpful documents shared by other people in this group. Special thanks to them.

I have my interview for my DTV e visa in Vientane on the 12th. Do I need to print off all the documents I submitted online?

Hello, I am applying as a freelance for workcation category of DTV in Laos. I hold an ASEAN passport and I also got my visa on arrival which allows me to stay in Laos on for 1 month. I was wondering if I could get some sample interview questions so that I could practice it ahead of time. Thank you very muchh.
