Hi there! Anyone RECENTLY get a DTV using soft power Muay Thai who is OVER 60? (My husband is super fit).

JAKARTA DTV Success Softpower Muay Thai.

This is for myself and my son.

Main applicant:

May 18th - arrived in Jakarta, submitted mine

about 9pm. Status maintained at

pending document check the whole

time.

May 27th - status changed to pending approval

around 5pm, then APPROVED and

visa received an hour later!

My dependent:

May 27th - applied as soon as I got mine

approved. Submitted 8pm. Again,

stayed at pending document check

all through.

June 9th - status changed to pending approval

around 5pm, and APPROVED by 8pm!

Just in time for our flights the next day 😍

There were 2 holidays during my dependent’s submission. All in all, they are consistent in their timeframe of 7 working days for both our applications.

Documents provided:

Proof of location

-Boarding pass

-Flight booking

-Hotel booking for initial 5 days

-Stay permit from the autogates

-a selfie of myself in front of our hotel

Financial proof

- a cover letter explaining very briefly what I provided

- latest conversion rates from google, bangkok bank and wise

- highlighted screenshot of current balance and amount of 500k for the past 2 months. I provided 3 months of full bank statements

Muay Thai documents

- a cover letter stating my intention to apply via the softpower route

- a complete visa documentation package from Muay Thai Fever. It is a 6-month course.

For my son (dependent), I used the exact same financial documents with a sponsorship letter from me, his proof of location and his birth certificate translated to English.

I did call up the embassy a couple of times to check on our applications as the status remained unchanged. They were very friendly and assured me I will get updates soonest they can. They process everything by the date of submission.

HUGE thanks to everyone in this group especially Andi Traveller 🙏🏼

The waiting is hard, so we’re all very fortunate to have this group to keep us in the loop and entertained too! Good luck everyone!!

If your husband could get a DTV visa with soft power for 6 months Muay Thai, what would you need for a spousal visa?

If you got a spousal visa again, please give me some advice☆

Hello everyone, I'm just curious about the "soft" Muay Thai DTV visa... if my wife were to obtain this visa, is it possible for me to apply to be a dependent on her visa? Or can you only be a dependent for the other types of DTV visas? Thanks for any info!

DTV Approved (Soft Power - Muay Thai) - Singapore - Non Singaporean

Hello! This group has been super helpful and I wanted to share my experience. I was living in Singapore under a work visa and I applied under the Muay Thai category.

First attempt - 26 March - Rejected due to wrong Place of Issue. I put the issuing country of my passport but it was supposed to be the "Authority" field.

Second attempt - 22 April - Provided all the documents (my passport, rent contract in Singapore under my name, my work visa screenshot and picture, letter from my girlfriend stating I was going to live with her in Thailand, her ID and her rent contract, Muay Thai training contract including the gym's owner passport and banking statement in SGD).

Interview - 13 May - They asked me a lot of questions to double check my situation. Where I was working, how long I knew my girlfriend, my profession, if I ever had trained Muay Thai before, etc. After almost 2 hours, they approved it in the final of the interview.

Arrival in Thailand - 16 May - I arrived in Thailand and they didn't ask anything, just stamped the passport. I had also put my Thai visa number on TDAC already, this could have helped.

Feel free to ask any questions.

Hi what do I put on TDAC for purpose for visit - DTV for Muay Thai visa, thanks ! Also do I need a return flight?

Hey folks, I applied for soft power Muay Thai at Canberra embassy in Australia on the 14th of May, I had to add an additional doc on the 20th, I’ve heard Canberra can be fast and slow approving visas. Has anyone else on here gone through Canberra and what were your results.

Thanks heaps 🙏

Anyone got any recommendations for the gym that offers the cheapest endorsement for the Muay Thai DTV visa please?

Or if not what is the cheapest way around getting endorsed for any Muay Thai/ educational way?

I want the visa but don’t want to spend loads of money on classes as seems pointless
