I applied for DTV through the Royal Thai Embassy in London UK using my Philippines passport (Im a UK permanent resident) and Im waiting for the result.

My UK naturalisation came through today so I will soon have a British passport.

Will it be a problem for me if I enter Thailand with my approved (fingers crossed) DTV on my Philippine passport using my new British passport?

Thanks

Grateful for this group for all the information leading to approved DTVs in Vientiane for me and my partner, now giving back. Both are under Remote Work Category - we are both on consulting contracts for different charities in other countries. We both hold Philippine passports.

1st application, my application submitted on Sept 24 with the following documents:

- Cover letter detailing the list of documents, the nature of my remote work highlighting thr job can be done through my laptop, my intentions for staying in Thailand - to immerse myself in its people and culture, as well as scuba dive around.

- Certification of consulting services signed by employer mentioning: ability to work remote and remuneration information.

- Consulting contract

- Payslips / Proof of payment from employer in the last 6 months

- Bank statements for the last 6 months from 2 banks both with more than 500K THB

- Proof of current location: Laos entry stamp, Vientiane hotel booking

- Additional supporting documents: TM30, Flight to Bangkok

Immigration officer asked one question: What is your work? I explained it's training staff from other countries remotely.

Received the approved DTV on September 26.

2nd application by my partner, submitted the same exact documents on October 4. Note she had an ED Visa and a reentry permit when she applied. Was asked one question: Are these your payslips, the response was yes. Approved on October 8.

A huge relief after getting approval for us both. Thank you to this group and everyone for being generous of timely updates.

Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) Approved! (Long post sorry!)

Just wanted to share my experience applying for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) as a Philippine passport holder at the Royal Thai Embassy in Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines.

Embassy Information:

* Location: Royal Thai Embassy, Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines

* Website (Issue?): Their website for the Philippines seemed outdated, so I called them directly (I got their number through their website Consular Services > Visa Application Section). They did confirm that they are processing DTV applications and provided an email address to send my inquiry so they can respond with the complete list of requirements. They responded quickly, about 2 hours from the time I emailed them.

Application Timeline:

* Date Applied: September 9, 2024. I visited the embassy at 9:30 AM, their opening hour, they mentioned that the turnaround time is 3 business days.

* Date Approved: September 12, 2024. I was instructed to return exactly after 3 business days to collect my passport between 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, I went at 2:40 PM today and I was surprised that they are already releasing passports before 3:00 PM. I got mine in less than 10 minutes.

Appointment Requirements:

* Appointment Needed? No appointment is necessary as they only accept walk-ins from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, Monday to Friday (excluding embassy holidays, refer to their PH website).

* Processing Time: My application process took about 20 minutes, including wait time. Also to mention there were only 9 people ahead of me and 3 counters are available. The officer reviewed my documents and collected the visa fee without asking any questions, likely due to my complete requirements (I assume)

Requirements I Submitted:

* Employment Contract: Signed job offer from the Philippine company I currently work.

* Certificate of Employment: Mine included the company name, annual and monthly pay, date of hire, job position, and states "Visa Application" as the purpose. It also confirms that I am authorized to work remotely.

* Bank Certification: From a local bank showing a balance greater than 500k Baht when converted from PHP. Also states that the certificate is for visa application purposes.

* Photos: 2 recent passport-sized photos (3.5x4.5 cm) with a white background.

* Visa Application Forms: Completed Visa Application Form and Supplementary Form for Filipinos, available here.

* Passport: Original passport plus a photocopy.

* Visa Fee: 18,000 PHP (cash only).

Additional Note:

* On the day of my application, there was a foreigner processing his DTV with a similar timeline and was also asked to return after 3 business days.

Hi all,

I'm inquiring on behalf of my friend. Does anyone know if Philippine passport holders entering Thailand with with 30 days visa exempt can be extended for an additional 30 days?

If so, what documentation does my friend need to prepare in order to apply for the visa extension?

Any information or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Hi everyone! I have a Filipino passport and am granted a 30-day visa exemption in Thailand. I work remotely and am thinking of staying for a few months, perhaps around 4 months or so, depending on how long I can actually stay. Now, my question is, what are the visa options available to me? If there are none, how many times can I extend my visa through local immigration, or perhaps do visa runs?

Hi everyone.

First time to post here. Would like to ask opinion about visiting thailand.

I'm a Philippine passport holder on Visa exemption when visiting Thailand. I was there last June 2023 until Dec. 2023 with 2 exits and 3 visa extensions. Would like to ask if the 180days rule per year for tourist still exist or can I come back Chiang Mai anytime soon?

I've been searching in google, said that rule was long ago abolished and not so much articles about the 180days rule. I got confused and worried that if I come back next month, they might deny my entry.

Thanks in advance for answers. 😁👋

Philippines Passport

Living in Bali (no Consulate here, only in Jakarta)

I want to stay in Thailand for 60-90 days

I am getting conflicting advice, what is the best way to go about it, please? What are the requirements?

I saw somewhere that I can just enter with VOA (30 days) and apply for a Long Term Tourist Visa while I'm there in Thailand?

I also saw somewhere that I need to apply for a Tourist visa first.

Bit Confusing - Please help!

Hello, my daughter will be spending her vacation here in Thailand where I currently work and live. She has a Philippine Passport but is currently studying in Canada. My question is what is the best way for her to stay in Thailand if she plans to spend close to 4 months here?
