Hi everyone! I first entered Thailand on August 31st on my DTV visa, and I’ll be leaving on December 1st after using the full 90 days. I plan to come back again in January on the same DTV visa (for my Soft Power Muay Thai training).

With all the recent rule changes at Thai immigration, I wanted to clarify something:

👉 If I re-enter after 1 month, will I have to show accommodation proof, training proof, or any new documents again?

👉 Or will immigration stop or question me because I’m entering again on the same visa type within a short gap?

👉 Has anyone recently re-entered on the DTV after a short exit?

Any updated experiences or advice would be really appreciated — thank you! 🙏🇹🇭

Many people have commented in this group how owners refuse fail to file a TM30. I am happy to see something being done about this

3 days in Laos

Easy

I went to Bali on Nov 3rd, had some business there. Applied for my DTV. So this was before all the new rules. On Nov 13 they asked for all pages of my passport and proof of income. I work for myself so I sent my PayPal account and sent a letter stating that my bank account holds a balance of $180K Canadian which is over 4 million Thai baht not including other investments. I was approved yesterday Nov 18 got the email around 1pm. I then booked my flight to Thailand for today. I had the email printed out everything done. I got pulled over and questioned, they ask me what information I provided Jakarta to get my approval, I had to show my website, I showed my bank account balance, I showed my water bill because I rent a condo. Eventually for stamped for 6 months. So just because you have a DTV doesn’t mean you won't get questioned. Also to be clear, I have never done a visa run. I came to Thailand used the 60 days tourist, 1 extension for 30 days then went to Bali. It just aligned with my work. Within those 3 months here I leased a condo knowing I will apply for the DTV. Oh they also wanted to know how much I make monthly, it's random, some months can be 5000 some months nothing so I said that.

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!

Hey:)

Has anyone recently submitted a DTV soft in Taipei Taiwan, and can share their experience?

For several years i have used the online 90 day report without any problem. The last 4 occasions it has been rejected. I have just done 14 days before, 13 and today 12, each time rejected. Is anyone else experiencing the same problem?

Hello has anybody recently had any issues at the airport with them asking to show the 500,000 THB, that was needed for qualification is still in your bank account? I’ve heard multiple people saying they had issues at the airport with this and was just curious if everybody was experiencing this?

I will need to apply for a DTV from the UK embassy.

What are peoples experiences of applications through there?

Having looked through a lot of posts etc, I am still confused by what is actually required by the London embassy as requirements seem to differ greatly between locations.

I have been told that London only requires the bank balance on the month of the application, not 3 months, that they do not check previous earnings ( I do have them ) and other diffferences in some requirements.

I would be applying as a freelancer with a portfolio of apps and my marketing business.

Could people who have actually applied through the London embassy please confirm what the emabasy actually requested so I can be fully prepared.

There is so much conflicting information out there that I need a better perspective from people that have actually done it.

Thanks

Hi Everyone!

Can anyone share some suggestions or experiences about applying for the DTV Soft Power Visa under the Muay Thai program in Hanoi?

Did you include any work-related documents in your application?

I submitted mine on the 3/11 as others, but unfortunately, I received the email it was rejected on Today.

Here’s what I attached:

• Muay Thai enrollment documents

• My Vietnam stay information

• My financial bank statement

I’m wondering if the reason for the rejection was because I didn’t include any work-related documents.
