Dear community,

I am contemplating to apply for a DTV softpower Visa.

I wanted to commit to a six month course but read a few testimonies that, when re-entering Thailand, some were asked to show a valid course.

So I am wondering if I should rather find a 1 year or 2 years option in order to travel in and out without worrying about this.

My question: Was any of you asked to show a proof of a valid course when re-entering Thailand after the first 6 month?

I would be very grateful for some insights and advice.

Thank you

Thank you 🙏

Hey everyone

Just wanted to share my experience with the DTV Soft Power Visa, since this group has been super helpful for me! 🙏

I’m German and applied last Tuesday in Hanoi (October 15). On Friday, they requested one more document – just a better quality photo because my original one wasn’t clear enough. And today, Tuesday, October 21, I got approved!

For reference, I had 500,000 THB in my Thai bank account for the last 3 months before applying.

My Soft Power category was Muay Thai, and I registered with Tiger Eye Musy Thai Bangkok , highly recommend them if anyone’s considering that route.

Overall, the process was really smooth and faster than expected.

If anyone has questions or needs help with the application, feel free to reach out happy to share more details!

Who has had experience with the DTV Soft Power Visa attending cooking or Muy Thai courses in Chiang Mai, and then moved to another city (Bangkok, Pattaya, Phuket) and continued courses with a different school in a different city?

Looking forward to hearing your experience. Feel free to reach out!

I will be applying for a DTV soft power when I am back in the uk. So applying through the London embassy as uk passport holder. When I input flight details into the e visa system can I just put my proposed flight details using Emirates or Qatari flight numbers or do I actually have the tickets bought already?

Those who have DTV soft power visa. Do you need to book an additional course after documents for the first expire? And does immigration ask for course documents during re-entry?

Many courses are sold for 6-12 months, so I’m wondering what to do after documents for course expire.

Hello people who have applied in Kuala Lumpur for the DTV soft power? I would like to know for the DTV soft power application, if they ask for the same documents that are requested on the official website? Because some say that it is strict. I would like to have feedback from people who have applied for it. Thank you

Hello,

My application for the DTV Soft Power Visa has unfortunately been rejected again – this time in Hanoi, Vietnam. I was not provided with a clear reason for the refusal, so I am unsure what the issue was.

Around two months ago, my application was already rejected in Cambodia because the documents from my previous Muay Thai camp were incomplete and insufficient. Since then, I have enrolled in a new, professional Muay Thai camp in Bangkok, booked a nine-month course, and submitted all the required documents in full.

As I believed everything was correct this time, I am now uncertain about what steps I can take in Hanoi to possibly have my visa approved, or what other options are available to me at this stage.

Could you please advise me on what I should do in this situation?

Thank you very much in advance for your assistance.

Kind regards,

Hi Everyone,

My fiancé (American) and I (Filipina) are planning to apply for the DTV Soft Power visa and are hoping to base ourselves in Chiang Mai. We’re currently looking for reputable agencies or schools that offer eligible courses for enrollment.

If you’ve had a good experience with any, we’d be so grateful for your recommendations. Looking forward to hearing your suggestions — thank you in advance!

Los Angeles Thai Consulate DTV soft power approved in less than 2 hours! Seriously could not believe how fast that was…after reading it had taken some 4 weeks or more! Now all set to go Sept 21! Thanks all for the helpful info!
