ORIGINAL POSTER
Im preparing my DTV application and would love to get insights from those who applied recently, especially through the Thai Embassy in Tel Aviv or HCMC (Saigon). I have a few specific challenges:

1. New Business Registration: I am registering as a 'Self-Employed' (CPA-certified) business in Israel this week (Content Creator & Financial Trader). Has anyone successfully received the DTV with a business registered only a few days/weeks prior to the application? Did the embassy demand months of past invoices, or was a CPA letter and registration certificate enough?

2. Recent Bank Deposit: My 500k THB (60k ILS) was recently moved into my current account from a savings account. Will the embassy reject this as a 'artificial balance,' or is a current statement sufficient as long as I can prove the source of funds if asked?

3. Proof of Assets (Real Estate): I own an apartment in Israel. Does providing a Land Registry (Tabu) or a Rental Income Agreement help solidify the application in case the business is new?

4. Location Strategy (Tel Aviv vs. HCMC): Since I am currently in Israel, should I try applying here first? If I get rejected due to the business being too new, will it negatively impact a second application in HCMC (Saigon) a few months later once I have more invoices and 'business age'?

5. Re-applying: Has anyone here been rejected and then successfully applied a few months later at a different embassy?

Would appreciate any recent data points! Thanks in advance
