Hello!

I have a couple of questions regarding the choice of Embassy/Consulate.

1. I applied in Frankfurt/Germany and got a request for addiitional documents four days after I initially applied. Since I submitted the documents, it's been almost three weeks without any update. Has anyone else here gone through Frankfurt in recent weeks/months? What are your experiences?

2. I thought I have to go through Frankfurt, because it's close to where I live, and they are responsible for handling request from people in my region. Since there is a lot of discussion in this forum about choosing a different embassy/consulate for applying, I would love to understand the way this would work. Are you guys then travelling to the place of that specific consulate and stay there until the decision on the DTV has been made? Thanks in advance!

✨ DTV Visa (Thailand Workation) Update ✨

• 7 September: Applied at the Thai Embassy in Frankfurt

• 15 September: Embassy requested additional documents

• They asked for a professional portfolio as part of the process

• 29 September: ✅ Visa approved! 🎉

Sharing this in case it helps others — be prepared that proof of professional activity (like a portfolio) may be requested.

Feeling extra lucky because my flight is already booked for 1 October ✈️🇹🇭
