Finally!! My DTV is approved.

Thank you for this group.

Quick background: A Philippine passport holder applied in Manila.

Sharing my timeline and experience as I saw quite few PH passport holders submitting DTV.

December 11: submitted form

December 16: Requested additional document: emails with clients and sample work

December 16: Submitted additional document

December 23: requested additional docs, (bank statement where pay is received) submitted within the day; changed status to pending approval

December 26: received visa approval.

Hello everyone!

I have a couple of quick questions:

1. If someone has stayed more than 90 days in 2025, does this reset on January 1, 2026, allowing them to re enter and stay up to 90 days again?

2. If I apply for a tourist visa through the Thailand Immigration website and it is approved, will the Immigration Officer in Thailand honor it without any issues?

3. When applying for a visa through the website, what is the maximum number of days that can be requested? Is it still 60 days, or can 180 days be requested?

4. The application asks me to upload a “Document indicating current location.” Could you share a few examples of what would qualify?

Thank you in advance for your help. 🙏

Hi there.

My visa application is rejected. I applied 17 dec /rejected 22 dec. I applied for worcation , i provided nearly 1 million baht of savings (last 6 months). I provied my uk Ltd files. I provided wise and payoneer invoices. Proof of accommodation and proof of current place (hanoi). I sent A dashboard screenshot of my portfolio as im working e-commerce cash on delivery. I highlighted the countries's currencies where I operate to proof that i don't operate in Thailand. I don’t why i got rejected? Did i miss something or what? Should i contact them? They didn't give the reason of rejection. Should i go visit the embassy maybe i get some clarification about the reason of rejection? (I can add my files add i provided for discussion here in the comments if that's okay)

Hi

Stuffed up calculation when I booked my return ticket, my flight is in February but visa expires on 19th January

I assume can’t extend a dtv at all ? Is only option to jump to another country and return ? Or they got strict on that in new visa reforms ?

Cheers

Hi everyone, I’d appreciate some advice from anyone who has gone through the DTV remote work process.

I applied for a DTV under the remote work category while staying in Vietnam. With my application, I already submitted my employment contract, employer approval letter, proof of company registration, bank statements showing the required balance, and six recent salary slips.

Today I received a request for additional documents, and I’m trying to clarify their expectations. They asked again for salary slips and bank statements, which were already provided, so I’m not sure if they want updated versions or a resubmission.

They also requested income tax documents for the last two years (2023–2024). In my case, income tax documents are issued only after the end of the tax year. I did not work during 2023 and 2024 and only started my current employment in April 2025, so I don’t have tax forms for those years.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? Would a letter from the accountant of my current employer confirming my employment start date be sufficient, and what details should such a letter include?

Thanks in advance for any insight or experience you can share.

Is there an online site and list to download the documents needed to renew my Retirement Non O Visa? Also what document shows the expiration date and how many days before it expires to renew the visa?

hello guys, i got a DTV interview appointment at Laos Thai embassy. May I know what kind of questions that the counselor would ask?

Here is some tips for the tourist 30 day extension forms, for any newbies.

When I report to immigration for the TM 30 after arriving in Thailand 24 hours earlier, I go to the visa information office and pick up the forms for the extension.

I then take them home and fill them in at my leisure, I also make a photo. copy of the blank form. in case I make any mistakes.

This saves time when I actually go for my extension..

Also yesterday at immigration I took a photo of all the completed forms that Thailand py partner had to sign,

This will help for next year's forms, If I am still fit enough to return

It was busy yesterday at Korat IMO, but 4 hours to complete that included a 1 hour lunch break wasn't too bad.

Just got approved for the Dtv Workcation in Manila took 11 working days and multiple documentation follow ups.

It said you will receive payment receipt in your email, I didn’t but it’s showing pending document check and I can actually see the receipt on the system. I am just worried if they ask for additional documents via email, and why I didn’t get any confirmation on email. Does Sri Lanka office communicate vie the system or through emailing ?
