Hello, I’m currently in Thailand with a 60 days exemption visa and would like to travel to a border country (Laos, Cambodia, or Vietnam) to apply for a SETV from a Thai embassy. Is it possible even if I’m not a resident of these countries and just a tourist ?

This group was helpful when i prepared my application so i wanted to return the favor and share my experience with applying for DTV in phnom penh, cambodia.

I am a self employed developer and so I applied for workcation on Friday march 28 around 9pm. Visa approved today April 11. Exactly 14 days (2 weekends included) from application to approval.

I was previously on a spouse extention for 3 years and before that on ed visas. This seems to have not been an issue at all.

I was not asked for anything extra. My visa status was updated to "pending approval" on march 31 (first day after the weekend) and then went to "Approved" today. No news or changes in between.

Documents submitted:

I am a bit of an over preparer so I spend a good 4 days preparing 3 pdfs. Each pdf had a clickable table of contents and I highlighted a lot important information.

1. Proof of location.

- Scan of passport stamp arriving in cambodia

- I asked for payment receipt in the hotel and included it.

- Also included my e-boarding pass to cambodia

- added a cover letter to explain I flew from Bangkok to cambodia and that I understand I have to stay in cambodia until I receive a decision

2. Proof of financials

I flew out of Thailand on the same day that I applied for the visa. Flew in the afternoon and applied in the evening. Before leaving thailand, I went to kbank branch and asked for signed statements and a signed cover letter stating I have 500 000 baht in the account on the same day as the application. I provided 4 months statement but only 1 good month had the 500 000 in it. Before that the balance was just over 100 000. I do use the bankaccount daily or so they can see that.

- Signed and stamped bank statement from thai kbank

- signed and stamped cover letter from kbank

- payslips covering the same 4 months of the statement

- a coverletter in which I explain where my money comes from and also included a currency conversion table so they easily could understand the payslips in euro vs the bank statements in baht.

3. Proof of business.

I included a 27 page pdf to proof I have my own company. This pdf included:

- Coverletter of almost 3 pages.

- Employment contract to myself, signed by myself and it stated that I am allowed to work remote which I also highlighted.

- Proof of business incorporation in estonia.

- Result of my company financials of the last 5 years.

- Portfolio overview with a lot of screenshots and explanations and links to online sites to proof everything I was saying.

- Screenshots of my website and customer testimonials.

Super smooth for me in cambodia. Just have to be aware that it will take around 2 weeks. If you are fine with that then cambodia seems like the place to apply from.

Cheers.

I'm sure it's been asked tons of times,in Thailand going to Laos,or Cambodia,which is best for dtv?quickest ,least scrutinized,I know the prices.snyonr try in Philippines?

Hello, we are a family of 4 thinking of doing a DTV. We are hesitating between Jakarta and Cambodia. We'll only have 500,000 baht for a few weeks for the whole family, which seems to be ok for Jakarta but not sure about Cambodia. Has anyone applied with the same type of situation or anyone knows if Cambodia would be ok with us having 500.000 baht for a few weeks for my husband, our 2 kids and me?

Hey everyone!

I’m trying to decide where to apply for my DTV visa as a remote worker/workation spot. I’ve narrowed it down to Cambodia 🇰🇭 or Vietnam 🇻🇳, but I’m unsure which is the better option.

What are the pros and cons of applying in either country? Would love to hear your experiences.

Any recommendations for agents to do land border run to Cambodia for DTV holders ?

I have a relatively simple query: I am a South African living in Chiang Mai, currently on a non b visa (teacher). My contract at my current school ends soon, but my new school will take approximately two months to process my paperwork for my new visa and work permit. Where would be the cheapest, and easiest place for me to leave Thailand and return to get a visa waiver? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone applied for DTV visa from Cambodia? Not sure if I need to be in my Native Country to apply, or if I can apply from any embassy? I am resident in Cambodia.

DTVisa Approved

I originally applied for the E-Visa application in Thailand and flew in a week later to Cambodia... They didnt cancel my payment or my application.

Hi Guys !!! Did anyone apply for the “Muay Thai Soft Power" recently in Cambodia? I heard that many people that tried got their DTV cancelled due of a missing document "Of The Ministry Of Sports” which is impossible to get‼️

I’m currently in Cambodia! If anyone has some news and could share I would be really happy!
