APPROVED in Prague, Czech Republic

Category: Soft Skills (Muay Thai)

Very helpful information in this group, thank you for that. Hardly any reports from the Czech Republic though, so here is mine:

Applying as a Czech citizen with a Czech passport.

22nd July 2025 (Tuesday) – Application submitted

23rd July 2025 - Request for further documents:

* Proof of travel document to and from Thailand.

* Proof of accommodation for the whole stay.

24th July 2025 – Documents submitted

25th July 2025 (Friday) – Visa approved

My personal tips:

* Document Indicating Current Location

Scan of both sides of my personal ID card (Občanský průkaz).

* Financial evidence

My bank (Fio) was unable to provide statements in English, only the Account confirmation (Potvrzení o vedení účtu), so I included that together with the account statement in Czech (Výpis z účtu) in CZK currency.

* Proof of confirmation to attend the activity

I chose Bangkok Fight Lab gym and bought a 6-month membership. Issued payment in THB by a bank transfer using my Revolut account. The recipient bank was TMBThanachart Bank and the payment was confirmed within 5 days. Documents from the gym followed shortly after.

* Place of issue (Passport)

It is written on the front page of the passport under "Authority" (Pas vydal). In my case I wrote "UMC PRAHA 7".

* Last port of embarkation (Travel)

In case of a transfer flight it is the one that lands in Thailand. In my case I have a flight from Prague to Bangkok with the transfer in Istanbul. So I put "Turkiye".

Hope this helps.

Hi group,

I got approved, thank you for the information here!!

I had been ROMing this group since last year, but was really nervous about applying until I was approved. 😅

I’d like to share my experience as an example.

📍 Embassy: Hanoi (Vietnam)

🗂️ Category: Workcation

⏱️ Timeline:

* Submitted: 18th June Wed (e-mail: 8:27 AM）

* Approved: 24th June Tue (e-mail: 1:25 PM)

There was no request for additional documents.

📁Document:

Cover letter and portfolio

I included:

* Upwork documents (certificate of earnings + profile screenshot)

* Screenshots of my blog and creations (including LINE stickers)

* A remote-work freelance service agreement from a Japanese client

My Upwork earnings were about 10k USD (last July ~ this June), I didn’t include documents for my other income sources.

Writing an English cover letter was a bit tough for me as a Japanese, we are not familiar with it 😅

I included the following in my cover letter; summary of my freelance work, my purpose for staying in Thailand, a list of portfolio items (starting on the next page)

Document Indicating Current Location

* Hotel reservation documents (from OTC)

* Passport stamp showing entry to Vietnam

Financial Evidence

* I used Wise screenshot and statements (in USD and JPY, mixed)

* 6 months of records

* I was gradually saving up money, reached 500kTHB 1 month before I applied

I hope this helps 😃

Hello Guys I am preparing my documents and I am confused about one thing.

Your money is in your current account or invest account?

Can my 500k THB be in my invests?

Approved in Hanoi (Workcation)

July 1, Tue: Applied

July 2 Wed: Add Doc

July 7 Mon: Approved

First of all, thank you so much to everyone who shared countless application reviews.

In my case, I annotated the Financial Evidence section in detail for the past three months and even included screenshot captures on current day, but ultimately, I was asked to simply resubmit the original bank statement. Just for your reference.

Just as I’ve received help, I’ll do my best to answer any questions you may have.

I submitted my DTV application at Thai consulate Dubai with all documents including a bank statement (6 months) and closing balance certificate. I got a request for uploading additional documents which also says "Financial evidence: an amount of no less than 500,000 THB (e.g., bank statements for the last three months, sponsor letter) (The other bank statement to support for 3 months as well.)". I am not sure what do they mean by "other bank statement" since I only have 1 bank account and already uploaded the statement. Can you someone please help or share a similar experience ?

Does a US letter from SSI stating over 3300$ a month eliminate the 80k bank account requirement?

I'm trying to apply for a DTV visa for soft Sports (Muay thai). And I have some questions:

- Occupation: Is there any problem for saying unemployed? Is It better to Mark employed? Or any other option is better?

- Date of departure: It has to be any Date before I have spent 180 days in Thailand?

- Accomodation in Thailand: contact telephone, is the the telephone fron the hostel?

- Is there any problem if I Cross yes on the question ¿Have you asked before for a Thai visa? (I requested time ago for a tourist visa)

- Document indicating current location: What can I upload?

- Financial evidente: Is It okay a bank statement of an spanish bank account or does It need to be Thai?

- Proof of confirmation to attend the activity: Can It be any Muay Thai gym from Thailand, what Document I need from them?

Thank you!!
