LOS ANGELES THAI CONSULATE:

Applied March 6th. Submitted further documents March 25th. Have not heard back since. It is now April 14th 2025

I applied for the DTV Soft Power on May 6th with all required documents and triple checked all information was submitted correctly word for word.

13 days later (March 25th) I get an email asking to submit a bank statement requiring a MINIMUM of $17,000 USD, with my name clearly printed and it cannot be an investent profile. My name was CLEARLY PRINTED on my bank statement, it is a statement from a SAVINGS/ CHECKING ACCOUNT with my BANK which also has the banks name and address cleary printed on it. I submitted the statement with $15,300 USD AS THE E-VISA WEBSITE and every other resource available online stated the requirement was a minimim of $15,000. I could have submitted the statement with $17,000+ the first time if thats what made clear anywhere but it wasnt.

I resubmitted a new bank statement with $17,500 1 day of recieving that further documents requested email (March 27) and ever since status has been in "Processing Document Check (1) ". I underatand as of now it Songkran in Thailand, but that document was sumbitted way prior to the holiday.

I also submitted the documents for my finacé's DTV SoftPower on April 4th 2025 with all the same required documents except I made sure her bank statement has well over $17,000 USD. We applidd to the same consulate as me. Her status has been "Pending Payment" ever since. Its been 6 business days and no status change.

I'll continue my patience but wrote this out slight confusion & frustration.

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE THAI CONSULATE LOS ANGELES

Anyone managed to buy things on Lazada? Without a Thai bank account it's a real PITA. My foreign Credit Card get rejected. It used to work a couple of weeks ago. Customer support has been unhelpful.

Hello,

I added my my card info it said “failed” but now it is “pending payment” but I can’t proceed with the payment anymore. Anyone had a same problem? How long did it take to be anle to add another card as a payment?

Hello,

Looking for a help regarding the payment. Just submitted my online application to the Royal Thai Embassy in Indonesia and when i paid with my Credit card it says that is “ Pending payment” . Where my friend used his debit card and his payment went through immediately and it says It is processing’

Now i can’t do anything- can’t cancel the transaction and use a debit card. Can’t use another card in general because it doesn’t allow me To do anything . Did something like that happen to you before? What should i do in this case. I guess it is a technical problem. Should i email the embassy?

Thanks for any help 🙏🏻

getting this payment failed pop-up message every time, I'ts so frustrating can anyone help me with this problem?

Has anyone submitted for a tourist visa through the Thai E-Visa website recently? I've tried to pay the past couple of days and the website doesn't accept it.

I've checked with my bank and they said they aren't the issue. so just trying to verify if this is me or universal problem

Ohh my god it finally went thru

I'm in Phnom Penh applied Sunday just checked the application and it says payment pending... thought I paid, tried again, the first time it just logged me out, then kept giving me an error. Anyone solved this? I've been using my debit and credit card over here without problems. I tried both those cards and a 2nd credit card, nothing worked. Sad I lost 2 days :( I guess I will try to call my bank tomorrow to fix and that's a 3rd day lost :(

Edit: tried Safari browser, chrome browser, not on a VPN

Edit 2: just trying a new application now per other posts

Edit 3: But now no booking site accepts my card payments for the new flight😭

Anyone having trouble paying for the Thai E-Visa? I am ready to submit, when I try to pay, I am either logged out, or receive “Payment failed or was declined”. I am using a Visa debit/credit card. I even went out to purchase a Visa prepaid card. No luck with that either. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Anyone come across this I’m at the end of the application where is says, proceed to payment after doing this it says click on an application below first but there’s nothing to click on .

Greetings and thanks for allowing me in your group. Maybe somebody can help with an issue I’m having. I fill out my DTV application online and everything is fine. That is until I go to pay the fee🤷🏻‍♂️

Every time I try to pay the application fee, it gives some kind of error message saying not accepted or canceled? I have used three different web browsers and five different credit cards and nothing works..

I have called my credit card companies and they say there are no problems with my cards such as fraud, and calling the Thai embassy here in America they say their website is working fine

I have checked my information over and over again and everything is correct. Last year with the regular E visa I had no problems at all. Can anybody clarify what might be the issue outside of everything I already verified above that is not the issue?

Thank you in advance 🙏
