I emailed them about the DTV visa and they said I could apply even if I'm not a resident. The e-visa website let me apply in HK and I did on Saturday. I'm waiting for their decision now, since yesterday was a public holiday, I haven't heard anything from them yet.

in Hong Kong they don't stamp your passport, they give you a little piece of paper. So any proof of entry should suffice.

You just need to prove that you're physically in the country you're applying from.

I sent my entry slip for Hong Kong to the consulate hete.

this is great, thank you!

Thanks for the update! 😁

ingen aning, de vet ju inte ens själva hur saker kommer se ut när DTV visionen ska förlängas. This is Thailand 😅

Men de har inte listat nånstans att man måste visa bankutdrag vid förlängning av visum. Vi får se hur saker ser ut januari när folk gör sina första förlängningar 👌

It's supposed to be an extension from your last extension's end date. But check and make sure they stamp the right dates before you leave.

@Marcos ********

thank you for this. I was just going to send in the last 2 months, I'll get a 6 month report instead.

Did you get any other details? What should be on the contract? How long does it take to process the visa?

I told them I wasn't a resident and they said I can apply there

I'm applying next week in Hong Kong.

I'm from Sweden. Emailed the consulate in HK and they said I can apply there.

Proof of location isn't listed as a requirement in the official documents but is in the e-visa system. I'm going to upload my hotel booking and see what they say. But I also have a rental condo in Sweden with a contract, but it's not in English, so that might be an issue if they want an official translation.

Will update the group once I get my results, most likely after .
