Hi from snowy Scotland , is it better to arrange health insurance before travelling or on arrival of 90 day trip , not that I will need it .....

Hi what is the exchange rate for uk pound at the moment bank and booths please 👍

Hello everyone, I just got my DTV e-visa through Phnom Penh embassy.

Here’s how I did it & my experience.

I applied on 21st 11am, and got my visa on 29th 5:30pm.

I went through soft power, medical route.

🤞🏼6 months bank statements from my Bangkok account.

🤞🏼confirmation letters from two doctors I am visiting and 2 appointment letters from both of them for 4th November 2024. (Both same date)

🤞🏼one night Phnom Penh hotel proof of stay, and 2 nights from sihanoville.

If you guys are planning to apply from Cambodia, I suggest doing it while you get your holidays. Nothing much to do here in Phnom Penh, so I went to sihanoville for 3 days, Koh rong saloem for 2 days, then back to Phnom Penh.

I find Phnom Penh more expensive than HCMC, even though I’ve heard lots of other people say the other way round. But food is great here. Lots of Chinese food options, Indian and Indonesian.

If you have any questions, please ask away 😄

Received my DTV today! I applied on the 22nd and collected my passport today. As a self-employed digital nomad, I provided a bank statement showing $150,000 USD, a stock portfolio worth $50,000 USD, my monthly Google AdSense income of around $3,000/ month and payment slips from the past six months. I was called in for an interview on the 25th, but by that time, the visa sticker was already issued.. Thailand Here I Come ☺🤣

Do they exchange £50 notes easily in Thailand

I recently got my DTV in Jakarta using a medical appointment I made online. I just wanted to thank all the posters who provided the detailed information I needed, which allowed for my application process go very smoothly.

As a way to give back to this community, I'd like to just add an observation if you'd like your application process to go as smoothly as it did for me. Print out the visa application document from the Thai embassy in the country you plan on visiting. Fill it out completely before standing in line at the embassy.

Once I was allowed entry into the embassy, I was given a queue number. While waiting for my turn to go up to the application processing counter I saw several people, one of whom was the first in line, having to provide additional information, which unnecessarily prolonged their time at the embassy standing at the form-filling counter, which quickly got full. It took me no more than about 15 minutes from the time I got my queue number to the time I exited the embassy. Do yourself a favor and have all your forms and supporting documents ready before you head to the embassy and the process will go much more smoothly... 😉 All the best everyone!!

Yesssir!! I just touched down in Thailand today with my DTV visa I’m excited to start this Thai Journey.

Hopefully this post gets approved.

I am dealing with a gym that tells me they can accept my application and proof of funds and forward it to the Foreign Department in Thailand and they approve and forward to my embassy. And then I suppose I go to embassy for a stamp in my passport ? Sounds like they are acting as an agent ?

How long does an initial Non-O generally take to process? Ball park figure? I will be entering Thailand from Laos by air on a 60 day TV to then start the process through to extension.

I have the funds and time, so won’t be using an agent and applying myself. Any tips or advise about the process would be very much appreciated. I’ll be applying in Phuket.

Also, best currency to use in Laos? I’ve heard USD?

Thanks in advance.

I’m about to have to do a bounce, and I was planning on visiting another country close by, but after doing some in-depth research, it’s not exactly what I though it was, so I’m opening up my options. I have it narrowed down to Da Nang, Singapore and Manila/Cebu. Is there a consensus among the group of the best destination? Sorry if it’s off-topic, but I need to figure this out ASAP. Not too worried about the budget, within reason, and I can stay as long as I want. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Edit. Basically going because my visa is up. I enjoy Thailand, and thought the Phils were comparable, but the comments online make me now think different. The usual activities... sightseeing, tours, nightlife, etc. I'm not hard to please. Just something interesting to do to bide time before returning here.
