Just got my DTV approved. Despite what I imagine was a somewhat unusual situation (applying from Brazil as a US citizen with a Hong Kong permanent address and a Hong Kong joint bank account listing my partner's name alongside mine), I was approved without a request for additional documents. I applied via the soft power route and was approved in 8 working days.

I have no idea whether any of this helped, but here's what I did beyond the minimum requirements to strengthen my application:

* I signed up for a 9-month course with Fitfac Muaythai in Bangkok. They're not the cheapest, but they were very responsive (even over the weekend) and I suspect having the documentation indicate a 9-month course would add credibility and make it easier to extend the DTV in 6 months.

* I applied using bank statements from a joint account that had over twice the minimum balance (i.e. one million THB). I figured if there were any questions about using a joint account, I would be able to argue that I was legally entitled to the minimum funds required for the DTV, even if half of my bank balance were considered to belong to my partner.

* I detailed my recent visa and travel history to Thailand (dates, ports of entry, visa number and work permit number, etc). The purpose of this was to build trust by demonstrating that I've always played by the rules during my time in Thailand.

* I wrote a detailed cover letter explaining all of the above, why I was applying from Brazil, and my interest in the DTV. I tried to anticipate and address any questions. I attached the letter to the course registration documents provided by Fitfac.

* I dressed professionally for the photo and used formal language and formatting in the cover letter. The goal here was to make myself look as bland and predictable as possible.

Hope this helps. Good luck to all who are applying!

Hi guys l am seriously thinking of getting the DTV visa a lot less hassle than normal and has 5 years to run. I will probably do the Muay Thai course in Hua Hin. Has anyone on here done this visa and if so what are the benefits and pitfalls of the DTV. I already know about the bank problem. But don’t know how people transfer money. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hey everyone, any tips for applying from Bali? Would the Muay Thai course letter need to be addressed to the embassy in Jakarta? Anyone had success applying online for DTV e-visa from Bali specifically? I'm flying to Bali tomorrow from DMK. Many thanks🙌🙏

I was issued a DTV on the 13th of May with the intention of entering Thailand (and starting the Muay Thai course for which it is intended) in late June.

However, due to family concerns, my plans have changed and I may not be able to enter Thailand until late August. Even though the visa doesn’t explicitly say so, I’m worried that this may cause it to be nullified as it is more than 90 days from the date of issue.

Should I be worried about this? Many thanks.

Hi all.

What is the update on that botany course? The pricing is quite attractive.

Currently looking at the wall fitness MT, which is 1 class a week for 18k for the 6 months, seems like a good service but not so competitive on price.

Then again, I haven't shopped around yet, so please let me know if you have any info for me.

Thanks

We are a family of four: my parents (aged 62 and 57), myself (33), and my wife (32). I’m planning to apply for the DTV visa. I have sufficient funds across both my father's and my own bank accounts, and I intend to enroll in a Muay Thai course.

Has anyone successfully obtained a DTV visa through the Thai Embassy in New Delhi? Do you have any advice?

Hello everyone !

Is there anyone who applied for DTV from Turkey ?

I am planning to do it under softpower activities (muay thai course)

Ive seen comments saying it takes too long and theres no clear requirements on the official website especially about proof of 500K baht, such as how long I need to keep the balance in the bank before applying etc.

I appreciate any help thank you all !

Hello Everyone!

Does anyone have experience with online Thai cooking / Muay Thai courses for the DTV?

Was it accepted by the immigration?
