Hello everyone

Please don't roast me 🥹

My flight is scheduled for 24th December but I applied for my single entry visa to Thailand on 13th Dec(Friday) and made the visa fee payment successfully. My application has been on processing pending document check(1) since then.

I am feeling nervous about it 😓

Hi everyone,

I’m from the UK but currently in Bangkok, Thailand, and I’m looking to apply for the 5-year DTV visa. I understand that I need to leave the country to complete the application. Could anyone recommend the best nearby country where I can get my application approved in the shortest amount of time?

Additionally, do I need to physically visit a Thai embassy to complete the application, or is there an option to apply online? I already have all the required documentation, including proof of 500,000 THB in funds.

Thanks in advance for your advice in advance!

For those that have been approved:

I just got a standard stamp at the airport when making my first entry on the DTV visa.

I’ve seen photos of peoples passports in this group where you’ve got a full 1 page showing all the DTV visa details.

How do you get that and where do you go to get that put into your passport?

I think it’s better to have that compared to a normal unclear stamp in passport

approved DTV! 🥰

apply evisa in Jakarta on Dec 8th, change status to pending approval on 11th, and just approved today on 13th! Really nervous because my flight is tomorrow and plan to change the flight if until 9pm I didn't get the visa yet.

They didn't ask for more document but I also make sure all the documents are complete and the Muay Thai place that I choose is really helpful w the necessary docs.

Is a bank statement with my address on it a proof of address?

Also, i'm currently in Australia, ready to go to thailand but i'm sending this off. Once the visa is in motion, can I leave and visit thailand on a 60 day tourist visa or do I have to stay out of the country until it gets approved?

Approved🙏 online E-visa DTV soft power/Muay Thai, with an ongoing membership at a Muay Thai gym that I already had since last year.

- 5th December 10pm submitted

-9th requested more things (my e fligh ticket, and 3 different documents from my Muay Thai gym)

-10th sent them

-12th December 10pm accepted

Was surprised when it got improved at that time since it’s 5am in Thailand at that time.

I currently have a non-O foundation volunteer visa and work permit that I've held for 15+ years. I'm switching to a religious (RA) visa soon. The department of religion said I need to apply for an E-visa and recommended getting it in Penang, Malaysia.

The problem is that I can't apply for an E-visa if I'm in Thailand. What's the process for switching visa types like this?

I see my post was removed. The answer from Tod was great. Not sure why it was removed. I had a follow up question about my wife and son. Do they need to apply separately or is there a place to include them as "followers" on my application?

Looking at submitting an application while in Laos in January. Tried to make appointment for the but system says none available and mentions the e-visa will start 1 January. Will it be online only started January 1 in Laos. If I am there, I apply online to Vientiane?

Rejected application due to DOB typo via E-Visa LA. Be careful, they really wanted that non-refundable application fee over a pity mistake. Entered the month/date backwards. Proper waste of 13k baht innit. My 4 forms of identification clearly show my DOB or my previous approved E-Visas. Smh…
