Husband got DTV today after almost six working days. Applied in Vietnam. Probably would be shorter process if you could upload everything at once, but they asked for documents separately so we just gave them only what they needed. Tonight we're doing my tag along DTV.

Good luck to you all.

Hello everyone!! I am applying for a DTV visa in the HCMC embassy or Hanoi consulate and would like to ask for some kind advice from you regarding my situation. I have my questions listed at the end of the post.

(This may be too long but I would really appreciate every comment as I tried to consult the agency before and they tried to raise up the price from 30K to 55K baht in two weeks. I’m stunned)

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

>Background (can skip this part when reading and come back for references)

⁃ I worked in Thailand as a salesperson from 2022 to early 2023 with a NON-B visa and a work permit. I quitted the job in the early 2023 and changed to 6-month Muay Thai visa, training Muay Thai.

⁃ After my Muay Thai visa ended in October 2023, I flew to visit home for a few months. I started working remotely as a salesperson at a company from the other country that is not Thailand and my home country in November 2023. The contract stated that my location was in Thailand, because I was renting a condo in Bangkok (The rental Contract is Aug2023-Aug2024) and did not want to get taxed in my home country. I usually receive my salary through WISE.

⁃ I came back to Thailand in January 2024 and proceeded to get an ED education visa. I had been working remotely with the ED visa until July 2024 as I took a career break. I am now applying for new jobs and will get one shortly.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

>I am planning to apply at the HCMC embassy or Hanoi consulate at the end of this month.

Other than photos, passport copies and visa application form, my current documents include:

⁃ Cover Letter and CV: introducing myself, what I do

⁃ 7-month Bank Statement(Issued by the bank in my home country): amount equivalent to 500K baht (500K baht has been in my bank for half a month, not very much transaction going on this account either as I receive my salary through WISE and I have other Thai bank account opened since 2022)

⁃ Work Contract from November 2023

⁃ Rental Agreements in Thailand [One appeared in my work contract (Aug 2023-Aug 2024) and one I am residing now (July 2024-July 2025)

⁃ hotel booking in vietnam

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

>My questions include:

1. Are the HCMC embassy and Hanoi Consulate good choices or are there any more recommendable embassies or consulates?

2. Must the 500K baht equivalent be in the account for certain number of months for the HCMC embassy and Hanoi Consulate?

3. Rental Agreements (?): Should I attach any of them?

4. Pay slips (?): I would not attach them in the first place. Should the embassy later require it, I can attach my WISE pay slips but they will only show from Nov 2023 – July 2024. I will attach a letter explaining that I am taking an unpaid leave from July 2024-Now. Do you guys think this is a good idea or should I include this information that I am on an unpaid leave now since in the cover letter? Any advice please?

5. Bank Statement: Should I also attach a bank statement from a Thai bank? Many transactions in there were transferred from my WISE account, which I usually receive salary from.

6. Bank Guarantee (?): Should I request for one and attach it?

7. Tax Return (?) : I would not attach them in the first place. Should the embassy later require it, I can attach it but it will show that my salary has not been taxed.

8. Do you think it is a good idea to apply for the DTV visa now or should I wait until I can get a new job, and I can ask the company to issue me the letter guaranteeing that I am working remotely with them? Because now I only have work contract and I’m a bit panicked.

9. Should there be any more documents I can attach please?

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

Thank you so much for your contribution! Have a nice day 😊

Good evening everyone. Its been a while but I wonder if I can ask your advice again. Stupidly I let my bank balance slip before the renewal date of my 1 year marriage visa. So I guess I'm going to have to go to a consulate and start again. Anyone have any recent experience with ho chi min? The website site says there are no appointments until 1st Nov which is too late for me. Do they stick by these or can I walk In? Also wanted to ask how the evisa works? It's all new to me. If I apply online to UK embassy for an evisa non o. Multi. Cam I print it. Fly to Vietnam or where ever. Then just fly home and present the paper? Sorry if this is a dumb question. Thank you all kindly. Neil

I have just received my non-o multiple entry visa based on a Thai spouse in HCMC Vietnam. Everything is very well laid on on their website for the requirements and the fee involved. No proof of funds required. For drop off yesterday I was 3rd in line and was out in 5 minutes and for pick up this afternoon I was 3rd in line and out in 1 minute. For those that live in the north of Thailand like myself, HCMC is for sure easier and faster to get to than Savannakhet, however slightly more expensive. Overall great experience.

Going to HCMC for a SETV this week.

Does anyone know if they accept a lease contract as proof of accommodation? The consulate website says hotel booking or housebook - if im staying with a thai. I can make a fake booking, but its easier to use my lease.
