Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) Approved! (Long post sorry!)

Just wanted to share my experience applying for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) as a Philippine passport holder at the Royal Thai Embassy in Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines.

Embassy Information:

* Location: Royal Thai Embassy, Makati, Metro Manila, Philippines

* Website (Issue?): Their website for the Philippines seemed outdated, so I called them directly (I got their number through their website Consular Services > Visa Application Section). They did confirm that they are processing DTV applications and provided an email address to send my inquiry so they can respond with the complete list of requirements. They responded quickly, about 2 hours from the time I emailed them.

Application Timeline:

* Date Applied: September 9, 2024. I visited the embassy at 9:30 AM, their opening hour, they mentioned that the turnaround time is 3 business days.

* Date Approved: September 12, 2024. I was instructed to return exactly after 3 business days to collect my passport between 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, I went at 2:40 PM today and I was surprised that they are already releasing passports before 3:00 PM. I got mine in less than 10 minutes.

Appointment Requirements:

* Appointment Needed? No appointment is necessary as they only accept walk-ins from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, Monday to Friday (excluding embassy holidays, refer to their PH website).

* Processing Time: My application process took about 20 minutes, including wait time. Also to mention there were only 9 people ahead of me and 3 counters are available. The officer reviewed my documents and collected the visa fee without asking any questions, likely due to my complete requirements (I assume)

Requirements I Submitted:

* Employment Contract: Signed job offer from the Philippine company I currently work.

* Certificate of Employment: Mine included the company name, annual and monthly pay, date of hire, job position, and states "Visa Application" as the purpose. It also confirms that I am authorized to work remotely.

* Bank Certification: From a local bank showing a balance greater than 500k Baht when converted from PHP. Also states that the certificate is for visa application purposes.

* Photos: 2 recent passport-sized photos (3.5x4.5 cm) with a white background.

* Visa Application Forms: Completed Visa Application Form and Supplementary Form for Filipinos, available here.

* Passport: Original passport plus a photocopy.

* Visa Fee: 18,000 PHP (cash only).

Additional Note:

* On the day of my application, there was a foreigner processing his DTV with a similar timeline and was also asked to return after 3 business days.

I just got DTV in Hanoi, Vietnam today.

- applied on the last Wednesday.

- applied as a remote job employee for Myanmar company

- required documents are as described in their website plus your official stay permit in Vietnam: entry visa stamp to Vietnam and hotel booking confirmation should be okay for that.

- they mainly checked my supporting financial data and bank statement. It's better to prepare your salary pay slips if your bank transactions are not much enough. They wanted see many transactions in your bank statement.

- they will notify your application result and passport pick up date by email. So make sure email address you fill in visa application form is correct.

Good luck everyone

Any Canadians in the forum. I just uploaded last 6 months of TD Bank....looks like they actually need 500k current balance.

What is the other document - business registration of the employer?

I already got a letter from my employer and submitted it. They sent this message to me again.

Just got approved for the DTV out of Washington D.C. For anyone that has their own LLC, I submitted the articles of incorporation and my partnership agreement as proof of documents for employment.

DTV approved in Hanoi. Easy process, courteous staff.

Made an appointment online though it doesn't seem to matter, there's been almost no people there the few times I've been.

Docs they wanted were:

* 6 months of bank statements

* employment contract (the staff made me believe it needs to explicitly state "remote work" - mine didn't but apparently it's not necessary as it went through)

* apartment lease in Hanoi (a hotel booking would also work) as proof of current location - apparently my physical presence in the embassy or the stamps in my passport weren't proof enough that I'm actually there

* deposit slip for accommodation rental or hotel booking in Thailand

* filled out application (had to write in DTV because it's not yet an actual category on the official visa application :D) and photo

* $340 - I paid attention to give very clean bills, they didn't really check their integrity at all

... That's it. Done in 2 days. Here at least, they look at face value at whatever you submit, there are no deeper checks.

Grab it while it's hot, not sure how long a deal like this can last before it becomes apparent that it's too cheap and too relaxed criteria.

My employer is a huge company, I am allowed to work remotely, but they can't provide paperwork other than proof of employment (with no mention of remote work). Will that pass in Laos?

Does anyone have experience applying for the Destination Thailand visa via the Thai Embassy in Washington DC? If you applied as a remote worker, did they actually contact your employer to confirm your remote work status?

DTV Success

I applied for the DTV at the Royal Thai Consulate in Vancouver. I used the remote worker option.

Submitted Passport Page, Photo, Copy of Driver's License as proof of residency, Most recent Bank Statement, and Letter of Employment verification.

About a week later they asked for my most recent Payroll Advice.

Next day they sent me the DTV.
