Hello everyone, I will be applying for DTV tomorrow from Philippines. I see there is an honorary consulate in Cebu since the last one closed down but I am unsure what that even means. Can I apply through Manila embassy while staying in Cebu? Thanks in advance for any advice.

How long did it take you, start from finish to submit the DTV application? Just curious.

Been putting it off but I meet all the requirements for workcation DTV and have access to all the paper work needed. Brit living in Manila, would be applying from there.

I heard something about technical aspect being a challenge, requiring to upload all files and pictures under 1 pdf file that's 3mb. I know there are tools for it so shouldn't be a big problem.

Is it doable start to finish in few hours, a day, a weekend, or needs a week or two?

I would need to put all the docs together but I have access to it all. Only one might have to think about proof of where I live in Manila - I live with gf and rental and bills are all in her name, but address is on my local tourist alien registration card, and I guess I could book a hotel for a day or two.

I am trying to decide if I should apply in Jakarta or Manila. It seems like Jakarta is much more popular, although both seem to have similar requirements. Any reasons for that?

Does anybody reccomend the best neighbouring country to apply from for a smooth process for a UK passport holder? I’m hoping not to have to fly all the way back home to be approved Has anyone tried Cambodia? 🙌 Thank you

Hello! Does anyone know if flying into Cebu and getting an entry stamp there is valid for DTV application at the Manila Thai Embassy? Or do we HAVE to fly into the Manila airport and get a stamp there? Or is it all the same stamp?

Hi everyone! Does anyone know how many months of bank statements Manila, Philippines requires? And are they strict about how long the money is in your bank? What if I only transferred the money a month before applying, is there a possibility to get denied for my DTV?

I appreciate anyone's insight on this 🙏
