I have sent my SCB bank statements, and now they are asking for a copy of the visa I held when I opened the bank account. It was 15 years ago... Has anyone experienced a similar situation?

Anyone did the border run to cambodia recently with Dtv ?

Given the tension between Thailand and Cambodia, has anyone applied for a visa in Phnom Penh?

Has anyone here applied recently for a Non-O visa in Cambodia? How long did it take to process? I’d love to hear your recent experience. 🙏🏼

Approved. Soft skills. Muay Thai. Cambodia. German Passport.

Applied: Friday August 8th

Approved: Wednesday evening August 27th

I've been living in Thailand since 2013. Mostly on Marriage Visa and extensions, but the past 2 years a mix between border runs ( 60 day arrival stamps ) and 1 year ED-Visa.

I chose Muay Thai Fever for documents. They did advice to go to basically any country other than Cambodia, because they are known to be difficult. But, I was a bit stubborn. I've been wanting to visit Cambodia / Angkor Wat for years already and decided to stay in Siem Reap for the time. If push comes to shove, I'd just try again in Vietnam.

I also used Issa Compass to handle all the paperwork and submit the documents. Very reasonable price + money back guarantee if I get declined. No brainer for me.

I provided Issa Compass with all documentation and they submitted everything Friday August 8th. I should mention, I already have 2 Bank accounts in Thailand. Both were way under 500k. I topped "sleeper" account up to 500k in May of this year...so about 3 months prior to applying. I gave Issa 6 months worth of statements with almost no transactions except the 500k deposit in May.

The following week I was asked if I can provide a different bank statement "to make my case stronger". I provided my everyday account statement, also 6 months...but balance always around 20k. ( I hold most my assets in crypto and convert to THB as needed ).

They agreed to use that bank account as well, eventhough it was way below 500k.

A few days passed, and I was asked when I opened those accounts and which Visa. ( I was surprised and scared by those questions ). I provided pictures of my Visas for ~8 years ago ( mind you, I have a new passport since then as well ).

Then another few days later, they wanted some other document from Muay Thai Fever gym. They explained usually its not needed ( Cambodia apparently is the only embassy that asks for this one specific document ). I forwarded the information to my Agent Issa Compass. They understood the explanation.

Another ~2 weeks passed and I got the Approved! Email.

Without the Visa agent / Issa Compass I would have failed surely. I assume some?all? Visa agents have a direct line of communication with the embassy to handle missing paperwork. Whereas a normal applicant would possibly just get a rejection with or without explanation.

Good evening , I would like to ask , if the borders to Cambodia or Myanmar are open and if it is possible to make a visa run ? Thanks a lot .

Has anyone applied at the Thai Embassy in Cambodia during the ongoing conflict?

Hello to all, any news about this ongoing war in Thai border, has it started effecting travel to Thailand and around the country?

Firstly, I would like to sincerely thank everyone in this group for sharing valuable information and guidance. I applied for the DTV on July 2nd and received my approval today here in Cambodia. I have been working as a freelancer with genuine remote freelance jobs.

At first, I was quite worried that border-related issues might impact the outcome of my application, but I’m truly relieved now. I believe that as long as our documents are complete and aligned with the embassy’s requirements, there is a strong chance of success.

Wishing the very best to everyone still waiting for their results — may you receive good news soon. Thank you once again💕🙏

Hi, does anyone know, does the new TDAC, have a time limit?, I read it's 30 days, on a 60 day+30 day on entry visa, that doesn't make sense. I'm assuming it's OK. Also if you're doing a border run (Cambodia), after your 90 days, do you still have to do another DTAC on line, beforehand, while you're still in Thailand?
