Hi everyone,

I completed my DTV application on March 20 in Hanoi, Vietnam.

On March 24, I received a request for additional documents (they asked me to highlight the salary transactions in my bank statement), and I submitted it the same day.

Today, my application status has changed to this — does this mean it has been approved?

I haven’t received any email yet.

Does it usually take some time for the approval email to arrive after the status changes?

Thanks in advance!

Do condo owners in Bangkok usually fill out the TM30 form easily? Should I get a photocopy of the owner’s ID and a copy of the property ownership document? Do they usually provide these documents without any issues? Should I request these documents from the real estate agent I rented the place from?

Just need some clarification with applying for a DTV using soft power Muay Thai. I am planning on applying from Ho Chi Minh and I heard that you still need to provide proof of income?! I am confused because why bother going down the soft power approach if I need work requirements anyway? Is it only HCMC that is like this?

Has anyone been approved for a spouse DTV visa in Indonesia? If so, how long did it take to process? My husband was just approved in Indonesia for DTV and it took about a month. I was planning to apply for spouse visa but our visa agent is saying the spouse visa will also take another month! Curious to hear anyone else's experience with this. Thanks!

DTV Approved in Bali, Jakarta 🇮🇩

Applied on 16 Jan 2026 through Thai Visa Solutions

Approved on 18 Feb 2026 🎉

Timeline:

16 Jan – 02 Feb: Pending document check

02 Feb: Requested additional documents:

1. A photograph taken within the last 6 months (newest photo required)

2. Proof of current location in Indonesia (e.g., valid visa, airline ticket receipt, or accommodation receipt confirming you are currently in Indonesia)

3. Financial evidence of no less than 500,000 THB (bank statements for the past 3 months)

4. All pages of passport uploaded (no pages skipped)

06 Feb: Pending approval

18 Feb: Approved 🎉

Throughout the entire process, the team at Thai Visa Solutions was incredibly patient and professional. We were quite worried and even a bit aggressive at times because the process took longer than usual due to the election period in Thailand. However, the agent remained calm, supportive, and reassuring.

In the end, everything was successfully approved, and we truly appreciate their guidance and professionalism.

I highly recommend Thai Visa Solutions THAI VISA Solutions

Hello! Have questions about the DTV visa. Will be moving to Thailand in January 2027. I have myself and 4 children and will be retiring. I am only 40 so, I have to get something other than retirement visa. I manage my portfolio does that count as work? 😛
