Which country would you recommend for applying the DTV? I've heard that, Vietnam should be good?

I should have all requirements and i work online Self-employed as digital Onlinemarketing Freelancer. I have around 600.000 THB on my private wise account since 6 months and contracts with my clients. Should I also apply as freelancer or owner with LLC? I happy to hear from you guys :)

Hello everyone,

Has anyone been to Jakarta recently? Is there still a lot of chaos in Indonesia, or is it safe to travel there and submit for my DTV application?

I'm at the confirm your application page and I noticed something off. The first "Passport / TD" line is the country of my passport, and the second "Passport / TD" line is my passport number. The "Number" line is blank, and I'm not sure if that's actually where it's supposed to be. I'm certain I put the number in the right field of the actual application, and every other line here is correct. Has anyone had this happen, is it normal?

And a question about my last name. In my passport it looks like there might be an extra space, so it reads "MC FARREN" instead of "MCFARREN." Maybe it's a typo but my name has only ever been written out like the latter. So I'm wondering if I should just write it as normal, same spelling of course just without the extra space?

I know this all might seem like overthinking but I've seen people get rejected/cancelled for minor things like this and I don't want that to be me 😭 Appreciate any advice, especially people who applied from Jakarta.

DTV application question: I plan to do it in Indonesia (Bali or Jakarta, not sure if it matters), is it risky if I apply myself or should I do it through an agency? How long does it take to process the visa from Indonesia? Whats the success rate if I apply under Muay Thai vs Cooking class (preferred for me, i actually love cooking)?

If I go with an agency, which ones are reliable and has a decent price? I talked to an agency and their price is more than other ones and they said I can only go do it in Vietnam (don't prefer to go bc it traumatized me a little in the past) and only apply for Muay thai bc they have a partnership and that cooking classes won't get approved. I feel like they just want me to do this so their partner gets my money for muay thai (my partner wants to do muay thai but I don't bc i am unable to do it physically due to health reasons and I've done it in the past when I was able to).

Also if I opt for a cooking class like do I have to look for a place that would agree that I would use them for a DTV visa? Whats the success rate for this? I'm actually serious about cooking though, how come muay thai always gets approved and cooking classes don't have the same success rate?

Let me know if you have successfully applied from Indonesia with a cooking class or muay thai option or any good agencies (not willing to spend a lot for this since I can technically do it myself).

Thanks

Hello, is it ok to enter Vietnam/Indonesia and apply for the DTV as soon as possible? Or should I wait for 1-2 days?? Thx

Hey gang, I'd been planning to apply for my DTV in Indonesia, but not sure if I should go to Vietnam instead with what seems to be happening in Indo right now with protests/floods/etc?

For context, my husband was approved for the DTV in Australia, but we didn't have time for me to then apply as a dependent/spouse, as the approval came through the day before we left the country.

We each have the 500k baht (mine has only been in the account for 2 months, but was close to the full amount for a long while before that).

My question is, is it better to apply as a spouse from Vietnam or Indonesia, and is the Indo process affected by the current situation over there?

Hi everyone,

I applied for the DTV in Jakarta (Indonesia) on September 1st. Today (September 11th), I finally got a reply, but they are asking me to provide proof that I am currently in Indonesia.

Does anyone know what type of document works best to make sure it gets accepted? (visa, photo, something else?)

Also, my current visa expires the day after tomorrow and I will be going to Kuala Lumpur after that. Could this be an issue for my application?

Thanks a lot for your help 🙏

Hi I'm in Indonesia waiting for my DTV how long on average is it taking at the moment?

Request for further document from Jakarta embassy

* Document indicating current location: Please upload stay permit from Indonesian Immigration and proof that you are currently in Indonesia.

* Other request documents: Please upload all pages of your passport.

What does stay permit mean? I already sent them my indonesian online e-visa on arrival (i don't have stamp because i used e-gate) and i sent them my arrival card too. How i have to proof my current location in other ways?

Hi group! I'm getting prepared to apply for a DTV and have a few questions.

I'd like to apply through the Jakarta office as I'll be in Indonesia soon, but on Sulawesi, not in Jakarta. Do I physically need to go to the Jakarta office, or can I apply fully online from another region of Indonesia?

I'm thinking of applying for the workcation as I'm under contract with an online teaching company, but I'll only have one or two months of pay to show. Those who have gone through Jakarta - how many months of income did you need to show? (I'm coming off of a non-b visa, so it's a transition time which is why I'll only have a couple months of recent online pay. I've also plenty of savings to show, so that aspect isn't an issue).

My other option is doing a soft power. I saw that "seminars" was an option. Has anyone done this one? What does it entail?

Thank you everyone! 🙏
