DTV approved in Vientiane for myself and dependent (14 yo kid).

I booked with Arun Thai Cooking School and used their visa agent to help me apply, as the process looked intimidating.

The agent is very slow and not very responsive, so I cannot say I had a great experience, but I got approved though.

My background - single mom, working in Thailand on WP for 10+ years, transitioning to my own online business. Russian passports for both myself and dependent.

Timeline

05 Jan 2026 - arrived Vientiane by air

06 Jan 2026 - agency applied

07 Jan 2026 - I paid my visa

additional documents were requested 3 times.

I used my Thai bank account as proof of funds, so they asked to submit a photo of my bank book, my ATM card and screenshots of banking app showing my data and account balance.

I guess they know how those should look like, and thus were happy with those, as no interview was required.

20 Jan 2026 - visa approved, no interview

For my dependent I applied myself, no agency:

21 Jan 2026 - documents submitted early norming, visa paid

21 Jan 2026 - status changed to "Pending approval" in the afternoon

29 Jan 2026 - visa approved, no interview required

no extra documents were requested wither

I submitted my bank statement, her bank statement (she has her own bank account, with 500K + in her account as of mid-October 2025), my DTV visa, her Thai birth certificate (she was born in Thailand), and from previous experience, we added a picture of her bank book, her ATM card and photos of her banking app.

I also provided a sponsorship letter, just in case.

Her application could have been faster, but with Thai elections, the embassy was busy (they were not even accepting visa payments on 22-27 Jan, and also 29 Jan).

Hope this helps.

Hey guys, I’m applying through London embassy online. Just got the email for further documents, I wanted a bit of advice on this so I make sure I get it right-

So firstly they basically want a cover letter explaining my freelance work & making sure it doesn’t infringe on local laws regarding working in Thailand

&

Secondly, I run an online store selling clothes from the uk, so should I write a description of that and link my social pages & website to them?

Any help or advice would be great.

Thank you!

(For ppl who are applying from uk, for ref I applied on the 5th and received this email on the 8th)

Hi, where should I start to get my DTV? I have my online business and want to move to Thailand.

Is there a guide somewhere or something I can refer to? I mean, not necessarily the government one, also like maybe youtube videos or anything to inform me about steps or tips&tricks.

Thank you :)

Hi, my family and I are moving from Canada to Thailand. My husband has his own consulting company and works online. Has anyone moved their business to Thailand, or have you kept your business and residency in your home country? Trying to figure out the best way to go about this, thanks in advance for your help.

Hoping someone can give us some advice? My husband is a fly in fly out worker (28 days on 28 days off) and I would like to start an online business and we want to move to Thailand.

Does anyone know the best types of visa’s for us? We have Australian passports.
