Hello everyone,

I am planning to apply for a DTV visa for Thailand in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Here is the list of documents I have prepared in advance:

✅ A recent passport photo (without a smile).

✅ A clear passport scan.

✅ Bank statment in English for the last six months.

✅ Approval for managing an account in Englis.

✅ A business license or notarized translation of the license, along with your business and personal details.

✅ A signature confirmation for managing the business (notarized).

✅ A copy of the main page of my site, with my website address included.

✅ Four financial invoices translated into English.

✅ A confirmed flight ticket.

**✅ hotel booking in vietnam

**

My Questions:

1. Should I submit everything online while I am in Vietnam, or do I need to visit the Thai Embassy in person?

2. Should I stay in Ho Chi Minh City and wait for the visa, or am I allowed to travel to other cities while it is being processed?

3. Will I receive the visa by email, or do I need to collect it physically?

4. Am I missing any documents, or is my preparation complete?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi asking for some advice, sor for a long post

I’m in the process of a divorce with my thai wife, we lived outside Chiang Mai near Doisaket so now have to start all over again, don’t really have much in Australia

I have to change visa’s as marriage visa no longer an option so considering this visa as a possibility but not sure

I work offshore on ships in Australia/ worldwide (mainly Australia) 4 on/ 4 off & want to stay living in Thailand as have been here for around 12yrs & have been seeing a doctor since August 24 for some serious health conditions (heart) & diabetes

Not sure if DVT or LVR is best? DVT is cheaper but not sure if I would qualify under workcation as technically I work remotely on ships in Australia or worldwide but not a digital nomad

Under soft options I could use my medical treatment but does the doctors need to be accepted/registered through /with this visa?

LTR initially 5 times the amount, 10 year visa, I meet the salary conditions under the “work from Thailand professional” can work for a Thai company, have health cover fo US$50K

Any advice if offshore would pass as work remotely or not for the workcattion & the soft option for my medical conditions & if any doctor can be used or if they have to be part of a conglomerate (BKK hospital or similar private system ect)

Just got accepted DTV visa in cambodia phnom penh. Took 17 days because of holidays but finally its done. Thanks for all people share valuable infos.

For reference purposes:

Just got approved for the DTV.

Type: workcation (full-time employee for a company in The Netherlands)

Location: Ho Chi Minh City

Application date: 6 Jan

Documents supplied:

6 months bank statements, Revolut, with closing balance of 15,500 euro (over 500,000 baht)

1 year worth of payslips

Employment contract, translated to english by myself (not legalised/authenticated)

Letter from my senior manager approving remote work specifically for the DTV (not legalised/authenticated)

Legalised Chamber of Commerce extract of the company i work for

On the 9th I got requested for extra documents, requesting more details of my role in the company, CV, portfolio, work examples and supporting materials demonstrating experience and qualifications.

Wrote a letter explaining my role, going into detail what work i do and what my daily workday looks like. Reminded them that i am a full-time employee, not a freelancer so I can't provide a portfolio, work examples, etc. Also mentioned due to the nature of my job, i am bound by a confidentiality clause.

Went to "pending approval" on the 10th.

Approved today.

So happy as I was a little afraid i would get rejected due to the documents not being authenticated by the dutch embassy as it was advised. Glad that stress is now over.

Hi everyone

My daughter 6 years old is on a ED visa - 1 year

She has left Australia for one month over Christmas

However when her one year visa was granted a note was placed in her Passport to report on the 29/1.

Given she has not spent 90 days in. A row in Thailand. Does it become 90 days after she returned in January?

Hi,

Request for advice regarding the DTV visa.

I applied for a DTV visa as the wife (my husband received the visa earlier). Unfortunately, I did not manage to receive it while in Poland and I have already arrived in Thailand. I received a request to complete the application: (Please upload a copy of the written statement (with the applicant's signature) with information regarding current place of stay/location status.) If I cross the border tomorrow and write a statement with a stamp in my passport indicating that I am in Malaysia, will it make sense? I applied at the embassy in Poland because that is where I was staying; will my trip to Malaysia be of any benefit? Will they reply that I should apply in Malaysia?

Hi.

Maybe a dumb question, but is it possible to hold a DTV Visa (Thailand) and a Malaysia (nomad/MM2 visa) as can’t face returning to UK for 6months of the year due to 180day limitation on DTV

If not , what are most people doing to circumvent this process ?

Thanks

I've been looking for a good Muay Thai class or school in Bangkok but many of them seem to be scamming me by overcharging, likely just to make the DTV Visa. Could you please recommend any good schools that offer affordable prices?
