Has anyone had their Digital nomad DTV accepted using sponsored funds from their parents at the embassies in any neighbouring countries?

Looking to apply for Laos but unsure on the situation.

Thanks

Hello, following up something I read another member post, I am planning to go into Laos and apply for the DTV, but I only get 14 days of visa exemption. What if I never get my DTV approved by then, would it be okay to travel to Thailand with visa exemption for 14 days, and wait for the DTV there? And I just go back to Laos if it’s approved and back into Thailand with DTV.

If not may I get some suggestions on what I should do about this? Am I able to extend my visa exemption in Laos? Thank you very much for your time.

Thanks for all the responses to my questions..I have yet another..my exit date when I entered is Nov 9....since it looks like I may have to leave and reenter for the 90 day..what is the latest I should wait to do it...I don't want to waste a month or so that I have already...am I correct in my thinking...and must I go back to the U.S. to apply or can I do Laos or Philippines? Thank you in advance.

Hi, my DTV application got rejected in HCMC yesterday. 5 working days, no additional documents asked.

I applied as Thai soft power, here are what I submitted:

1.Passport first page

2.Photo

3. Vietnam visa and stamp, Hotel confirmation, Boarding pass

4. Asset certificate for 1 year shows every month had more than 1M THB (under financial products category, not deposit), A copy of Chinese ID card(I thought only the ID number was needed, didn’t do the translation), Two motorcycle green book copies (I have tow motorcycles in Chiangmai)

5. Thai soft power 6 months course related documents.

And about the basic information I had put in, for the home address part, I thought they were asking for the address I am staying in Vietnam, so I wrote my hotel address and one more address in my country (China)

Now I want to try again in Laos, hope I can get some advice about what I did wrong.

Thank you

Border run #2 22.8.25

Drove to vientiane border from pattaya, drank 1 drink and came back to Thailand. When I left Thailand the IO lady was looking at the computer quite a few moments, I didnt ask why but I was thinking because I did my TDAC 5minutes before going to her 🤔

When I got back, the IO wanted to tell me that my visa is DTV and I will get 180days, that was quite funny, that was all the conversation we had 😆 never experienced explaining before, for 4years

Why I post is the budget;

Car 700thb

Gas 2500thb (honda city)

Laos visa 1700thb(+100thb because i forgot to take passport picture) thats $52 if you pay with dollars its $40

Leave your car next the 711 parking lot, 50thb. Tuktuk to bus station 50thb (i offered he accepted), bus 30thb each way

Thats a total of 5160thb for another 180days. And about 24h of time (had 2 of us, each driving one way)

I also got a speeding ticket of 1000thb, they set a trap at the mountain speedlimit lowered to 40 (altho same time says cars 60, who knows) when we were rolling down only using break 😅, a lot of fog so cant see much, i was following car ahead of me because i could see the lights, for "some reason" they looked at him and let him go and picked me 🤣

Also got picket at 1 of the 6 big stops we encountered...

"ooh.... silence.... you speak thai? -mai"

"what you name? -Toni"

"where you go? -pai Chon Buri"

"Ok pa"

I don't have enough time for apply online for my Laos visa.

So it gonna be Visa on Arrival at the VTE airport.

I will arrive at 22:00 in the airport.

Could this be a problem for my VOA?

Or they make VOA 24./7?

Border run Nong Kai Laos.

I never been there before.

Can I just stay and leave in 1 day?

(Few years ago I did this in Cambodia It took me 20 minutes)

Right now I am on a ED visa (15 months total) and it expires 29 July.

Someone who is sure about this?

And maybe some other advice for me if I am going there?

Border run question.

I need one, before I did go to Cambodia 3 years ago. But that's not possible at this moment.

I stay in buriram so it probably gonna be Laos.

My question is: howlong do I have to stay there? And do I have to pay there for a visa? And howmuch?
