Two US passport holders. Visited the Yangon embassy on Monday to apply for DTV medical option. No evisa here as others have noted. Made the appointment two weeks ago. Brought along 6 months of bank statements. Foreigner registration and copies of all visas past two years. Photos and the generic visa form. Had appointment details for Bumrungrad specialists for the next 13 months along with stamped signed certificates of diagnosis and treatment plans. Those certificates were very brief and to the point. Not a formal letter. Applied for spouse visa for my wife and brought marriage certificate. All these things were copies. They didn't ask for payment. Told us to come back at 2 pm. Came back and paid, got a receipt and told to return on Wednesday. My wife went back today and picked up everything. The staff were very courteous and as others mentioned wanted to help. They were amazingly efficient as well. We had tons of additional documentation too but they didn't ask for it. Didn't ask for flight ticket or apartment lease. Some local people had up to 8 passports with them. Traffic was very brisk. We've only been in Yangon for two years but know what people are going through. I hope everyone who was there had their visas approved and are able to get out.

The embassy I'm applying through (Yangon) doesn't mention a housing contract as part of the required documentation on their site. But just to be safe I'm thinking about booking a 90 day apartment stay through booking.com or similar. Has anyone had that rejected as evidence of housing contract? Plus if living outside of Thailand how to get a proper housing contract anyhow?

With regards to the Jakarta embassy does one just walk in there for a visa appointment? No need to book in advance?

And can a UK Passport holder make the DTV application there?

Same questions for Vientiane and Yangon.

Hi everyone! Does any of you have any experience with applying for a Thai tourist visa in Yangon, Myanmar? Does the Thai embassy in Yangon do 2month tourist visas? Or can you only apply for a 1month tourist visa? How many days would that take or is it ready the next day? Thanks so much for any tips or advice 😊

Went to Yangon Wednesday evening to apply for new tourist visas for me and my family.

Got to the embassy shortly after 9am on Thursday fearing a big crowd. To my surprise there were very few people and we waited in line for maybe 10 /15 min. Handed in our papers and were called again 10 min later to pay the $40 fee. In and out in 30 min. Great experience.. Next day pickup at 1:30pm in and out 15 minutes.

Great Thai restaurant (Thai 47) close to the embassy. Overall service and kindness of the people in the city astonishing. Beautiful pagodas, nice restaurants, roof top bars.. Overall had a nice 4 night visit. 4/5 star hotels very affordable. Transportation extremely cheap.. Less than 1/2 of Thailand. Same with food. My number #1 place for visa extension so far. Only downside was really bad pollution. We were the only ones wearing masks in the whole city but it was necessary
