Hi there, did it happened to anyone that you didn't get the visa on time before your flight ? Since I had to book it in order to apply for it... Thank you :)

Recently came back on my DTV at BKK airport. No issues, I gave my DTV paper to the immigration officer, no questions nothing asked. Stamped back in for 6 months!

Hi all,

Looking at getting a DTV and returning to Thailand, but I keep hearing immigration is getting stricter.

Currently in Vietnam, Swedish citizen, programmer, have the required finances.

Just left a startup, now between jobs (own a consultancy company, but no invoices for the past year). Multiple visa runs, tourist extensions, one-day overstay. Last entry immigration told me I won’t get in again without a DTV.

Should I expect issues with my background? Anything I should prep for?

Thanks!

Hi everyone 👋🏻

I already have a DTV - I need to extend it next week (I will have been here for 6 months).

Can anyone please recommend a visa agent in Bangkok who can speed up the process at immigration (in and out of immigration as quick as possible)? I really don’t want to spend all day at immigration if I can help it.

Thanks 🙏🏻

Hey guys, quick question for anyone who applied online through the Thai Embassy in Jakarta:

I’m currently in Bali and planning to submit my DTV application this week.

My Turkish bank only provides a digitally signed bank statement in Turkish.

Can I submit that with an English translation that I prepare myself (not notarized)?

Has anyone done this and got approved by the Jakarta embassy?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Any Aussies in here who've applied for the DTV via Sydney Thai consulate? I'm just wondering what they accept as proof of 500k baht since it seems to differ between embassies? thank you!

(Also, what doc did you use for showing location?)

So a family applying for the DTV visa if both parents work remotly and married is it better to get two main DVT and a child dependent or one DVT with a spouse and child dependent visas. Do all applicants need access to the 500,000 THB in both cases or would we just need 500,000 THB between the three of us making it better to apply for the latter.

Once I leave after my first 6 months on my DTV and come back do I still need to have proof of 500,000 baht in liquid bank account again when i re enter for the next 6 months? I keep majority of my funds in an Individual Brokerage Account so that I’m gaining interest. I’d prefer not to hold that much in a standard checking or savings account.h

Hi everyone,

A friend submitted his DTV application at HAN (Hanoi, Vietnam) on July 22, and it changed to "Pending Approval" on July 24.

Today is August 1st (Friday evening) and he still hasn't received any update.

Is this delay unusual?

Has anyone had their visa approved over the weekend before?

Any insights or similar experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks 🙏

Sorry about the anonymous post I don't usually do it but don't want a certain person bugging me. Done my second entry today at chiang khong and it was smooth asf. Leaving laos he said you only stayed one night but I had my print out to hand and (laminated with dtv print out on one side and soft power document on the other side.a smile and through in 2 mins max. On the thai side exactly the same but took a bit longer as the lady was interested about my cycle touring as I was entering with my touring bike.took about 3 mins max. Showed my dtv but she just passed it back to be with a โคกดีและปลอดภัยเดินทาง.
