Good morning I’m British but living in Portugal before and my bank statements are in Portuguese. Shall I translate them into English? I know that that’s what we’re supposed to do but of course it’s not gonna be on the original looking statement….

DTV Workcation approved from HCMC, Vietnam yesterday. Thank you everyone for helping!

Wanted to give an update on the translation of documents: I have used normal translations (click transkate website for babk account overview for example) and submitted invoices in German with added translations by me next to the original text marked in colour.

After having it 'pending approval' for ages with all the holidays in the last month I sent a very polite email yesterday pointing out my approaching visa end in Vietnam and if they need any more information. Got the approval 1.5h later, not sure if it was related to my email 🙂 Thanks and good luck everyone!

Hi everyone! I have a few questions about the DTV application:

- The website doesn’t list my city in France when I try to enter my home address.

So I used my sister’s address instead (different city).

But all my freelance-related documents show my real address (the one that’s missing from the site.)

➡️ Will that be a problem?

- I’m applying from Bali and I’m French. I know I need to translate all the documents,

but I don’t want to pay 40€ per page like the websites suggest.

I plan to translate them myself.

➡️ Has anyone done this?

➡️ Is it okay to only translate the main parts of the bank statements (not every small transaction full of codes and letters)?

- The 15,000€ are not on my current account, but on a savings account (called “Livret A” in France).

It still shows up at the end of my bank statement.

➡️ Is that acceptable?

Thanks so much for your help!

Really appreciate any advice!

Hi everyone! 👋

I’m Lithuanian and currently staying in Vietnam. I want to apply for the new Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) but the process seems a bit confusing.

My documents (like work contract and company registration) are in Lithuanian — I’ll translate them to English, but I’m not sure if they need to be “authenticated by the Thai embassy” or if that’s still required with the new online system.

Has anyone applied for the DTV visa from Vietnam recently? Did you use an agency? Any advice or success stories would really help! 🙏

Thanks in advance! 🙌

Do all documents need to be in thai or translated to thai language? Do they need to be officially translated or can it be done using google translate? I plan to apply in savanakhette.

Hi, this is in the everything else category.

I'm getting married here in a couple weeks. I have the notarized affidavit from my embassy and need to get it translated. The first place I checked said they were a "certified translator" and I guess that is a lower level qualification. What level of qualification is required. Also what's the going rate? I was quoted 1500 per page which seems steep. I have only one page (really only 1/2 page) and I'm thinking it would take no more than 30 minutes, so was a little surprised at the price.

Lastly can anyone recommend a translator?

Thanks
