When applying for evisa (London) and they ask for extra documents, have people found they ask for all extra documents at once or do you send one required document and then they say there’s more to send? I just want to get an idea of how quickly the process should take once I send them what they asked for. Thanks in advance.

Hello. I have some questions about the visa application form as it confuses me:

1. In the top right I have to select which visa I want, but “DTV” is not one of the options, so which one should I select?

2. “Current address”: I’ve been renting a Bangkok apartment for over a year, but I’m going to Jakarta to apply for my DTV, so which address should I write down? My Bangkok condo or my Jakarta hotel?

3. “Permanent address”: I guess I should I leave it empty as it will be the same my Bangkok address above? Or perhaps I should even note my Netherlands address where I grew up?

4. “Date of Arrival in Thailand”: Ehh I don’t know the exact date upon which I’ll enter Thailand again, as it depends on when they’ll approve my visa lol. So what should I fill out there?

Thanks for any help :) !

Hello everyone !

I have several questions about the DTV visa.

I would appreciate answers from people who have been through the process & know things, not guesses. Thank you !

1. I am currently a tourist in Thailand, soon I will go to Cambodia / Vietnam. I understood that I can apply for a DTV visa there, even as a tourist, right ?

2. I understood that the DTV visa there (Cambodia / Vietnam) is only online ?

So if I'm in Cambodia, I need to use the Thai embassy in Cambodia website even though I'm not Cambodian citizen ?

3. If I want to use an external visa assistance agency through which I will submit the documents online, is this possible ?

I prefer to submit through an authorized agency that will check all my documents before I send it, so that there are no mistakes and then my visa application money will go to waste...

If you know of an external visa assistance agency that helps tourists apply for a DTV visa in Cambodia or Vietnam,

do you have a name & website address that I can go to there ?

4. My documents (payslips, bank balance, etc.) are not in English.

I understood that the documents should be translated into English, is that correct ?

If so, where is it done in Cambodia or Vietnam? Is there an online service that translates documents that the government will accept ?

I think the translation should be from a professional & authentic body and not a normal Google translation, right ?

*If it is not mandatory to translate documents, write to me. This will greatly facilitate the process.

By the way, if the visa documents need to be translated into English - do I need to send the documents both in my original language & also in English, so that they have the original documents ? Or should only the translators be sent to them ?

I would appreciate clear answers from people who understand the process.

Thank you and have a good day !

Hi everyone!

I finished my contract on September 30th but my work visa expires on October 27th. I want to do a border run to Laos before that to re-enter as a tourist.

At work they told me this about cancelling my visa, is it correct?

` You need to go to the immigration for cancel your visa first by bringing passport work permit and paper from us. For example if you will leave country on 21st October, I will issue cancellation paper effective cancel your visa on 21st October and you can go to the immigration from 1st October onwards. Then on 22nd Oct, I will go to cancel work permit for you'

I thought they had to cancel first.
