I have just been rejected for the second time.

Embassy; Thai embassy in The Hague, The Netherlands.

1st request; freelancer.

After multiple back and forth requests for additional documents they asked me to deliver contracts of work or clients.

I provided them with a rental contract with a client paying me rent monthly, and provided terms of use and agreements, but couldn't deliver them the contracts they were looking for because that's not something I can deliver in my line of work.

Finally went to awaiting approval and rejected 2 days later.

Reason; Insufficient reasons to apply for this type of visa.

2nd request; Soft power.

I found a Muay Thai school, agreed to a 6-month course, paid in full. Provided all the requested documents and the embassy did not request any further documents. Straight to awaiting approval, rejected 4 days later.

Response; the reasons to apply for DTV are insufficient. The Embassy wishes to suggest the applicant to apply for other type of visa for example, Non-Immigrant.

I am at a total loss, It could be me, but I don't find this an acceptable justification, I can't do anything with this.

I don't know what I did wrong, if I did anything wrong.

I can't talk to anyone to ask them what they mean by insufficient reasons (I provided all the documents as requested and delivered extra information like my rental contract in Thailand and proof of sponsorship, even though I already have more than 500,000 baht in my own bank statements).

I wouldn't even know what to provide now if I wanted to make a new application.

In the meantime, Im due to arrive in Thailand in the upcoming week.

Anyone who have DTV visa get with Muay Thai . After 6 months out of Thailand and come back process is easy or not. Any documents need to show to thai border immigration again

Please can u tell Me wot goes in here is that the information from muai thai course. Thanks

Does someone have experience applying to a muy Thai school for the dtv but living elsewhere? If you would fly out every 6 months this would not be a problem right? would it be a problem if you do an extension?

I'm a US citizen applying in Jakarta this week and have a few questions for the group regarding Muay Thai soft power application and submission of documents.

I've merged 3 months bank statements into a single PDF and I'm wondering if it would be helpful to highlight the closing balance on the most recent statement?

For those that included a screenshot of the exchange rate for the day of submission, did you merge it into a PDF with your statements and keep it as the first page of the document?

I'm thinking of ordering my financial documents like this:

1. Official balance letter from bank.

2. Screenshot of account balance from my banking app on day of submission.

3. Exchange rate on day of submission.

4. 3 months bank statements ( balance topped up 3 weeks ago and only most recent statement reflects 500k+).

Also, I'm currently unemployed and primarily sustain myself from my cryptocurrency investments (they will be able to see withdrawals from Coinbase for the top up). Would it be reccomended to tick the unemployed box?

Thank you to the group and I would appreciate any insight you all may have!

My DTV has been approved for Muay Thai, and I'll be flying to Thailand soon. As far as I know, I have 180 days, followed by the option to extend for another 180 days. After 360 days, will I need to resubmit all the paperwork to enter the country, or can I do a border run to restart the 180-day period?

Longest and best visa to get?

Thinking of doing muaiThai for school visa for 1 year

But want longest

Hello,

I am actually in Phuket and about to apply for DTV soft muay thai in Jakarta. Please can you clarify how does it work, do i need to fill up on the official website once i am in Jakarta or i can do it right now? Once i filled up the form, how long does it takes to get appointment in Jakarta thai embassy? i presume who need to be there to fill up the form also physically?or i can go at thai embassy by myself without any appointment?

Thank for all you answer in advance and your help.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to share my experience applying for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Jakarta. I submitted my application on Monday morning, February 24th, and it first showed “pending checking documents.” By Wednesday morning, February 27th, the status changed to “pending approval,” and later that evening, it was approved.

I applied under the Soft Power (Muay Thai) category with Wildcat Muay Thai, and Meaw Boonpradub was super helpful in getting all the necessary documents together quickly (definitely recommend).

Documents I Submitted:

• Financial Proof – A 6-month bank statement from a foreign bank in USD. I had the required amount sitting in my account for the past six months, but I’ve heard that this isn’t always mandatory. Along with that, I also included:

• A screenshot of my account balance from my banking app.

• A screenshot of the exchange rate for that day.

• All three were combined into a single PDF file.

• Muay Thai Documents – Provided by Wildcat Muay Thai.

• Proof of Location – A picture of the Indonesian Visa Stamp in my passport.

• Scanned Passport

• Visa Photo

For accommodation in Thailand, I just listed where I was staying, but they didn’t ask for any proof.

Thanks everyone for all the information regarding the process!

P.S. If you’re planning to apply in Jakarta, you don’t actually have to be there—you just need to be somewhere in Indonesia. I didn’t realize this beforehand, and let’s just say Jakarta is not for beginners !
