Hi all,

I’m currently preparing my DTV application and was wondering-when uploading the passport scan, should it be cropped to the edges or is it fine to include the white space around it?

Thanks! 🙏🏻 🙏🏻

Hi everyone,

I could use your advice on Thai immigration.

Here’s my situation:

• I first entered Thailand on a 3-month tourist visa,

• Then I switched to a 1-year ED visa,

• After that expired, I did a 1-month visa run.

During the visa run, it was a close call: the immigration officer pulled me aside and only let me in after I booked a return flight on the spot. I was on crutches and explained that I needed more time in Thailand to fully recover.

Now I’ve been out of Thailand for almost 2 months, and I’d really like to go back — I miss it a lot, to be honest.

My question is:

👉 If I fly in without a visa (I’m eligible for a 60-day visa exemption), is there a risk they’ll deny me entry at the airport?

I’m planning to stay on this 60-day exemption and then apply for a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) once my funds have been in my account for 3 months (the required 500,000 THB).

I know I’m a bit impatient to get back 😅 but I want to avoid any trouble at the border.

Has anyone had a similar experience?

Thanks in advance!

I started my DTV application but I don’t have specifics such as where I am staying or what my flight number is or which region I will live in… how did everyone else fill it out?

Canadian just applied for DTV from Japan Tokyo embassy.

So apparently I need my documents notarized since I’m not from Japan/Thailand.

Any Canadians have experience with this? We’re from British Columbia but apparently the Tokyo embassy doesn’t notarized BC documents?

I.e., do we physically have to go back to BC, Canada to notarize our documents?

Hey guys any suggestions on this. I am currently needing to prove my location in Australia for dtv application however the immigration office is asking for a stamp on my passport showing that I’ve entered Australia as I applied for the dtv when I wasn’t in the country. Australia doesn’t do physical stamps they do it electronically.

I’ve applied to get record of movement from Australian immigration but they are taking for ever, are there any other ways of proving my location?

Cheers

How do I go about dealing with inbound flight/accomodation section of the application process (DTV) when you don't currently have my flights or accomodation sorted out?

I'm planning to apply tomorrow, I'm in the Phillipines but my flight booking will not be for two months and I'm not sure if I will be in Australia or America at the time, so figuring out flights now is not an easy situation..

Has anyone here had success going in person to the Embassy in Hanoi to clarify or fix an issue with their DTV application?

I got an email asking for more documents

It says ‘ not enough money ‘

but I already submitted 3 months showing over £11,000 (which is above 500,000 THB).

I’m confused to what they’re asking - has anyone experienced this please

Hey hi thanks for adding me..

I’m currently in the Uk filling in my DTV application.

I’m self employed digital designer.

Does anyone have template or examples of the section

Employment contract or employment certificate in there country or professional portfolio

Section as self employed person ??

Many thanks

So im in vientiane, Laos. Been here since 9th. Paid money 14th....they just gave us an interview date of 1st August FFS.

This is ridiculous.

Update - they kindly moved it forwards for me following a polite request. Looks like il be out of here 9 days from payment so I take back my above comments 😂 had a whale of a time here in Laos. If you bothered to learn any Thai in Thailand youl love it too as they speak issan and a lot of Thai and youl be able to communicate with and get to know some wonderful locals.

Anyone had an experience with applying to DTV in the Philippines? If so, how did it go?
