Also, did you merge the documents into one pdf? There have been a few applicants who mistakenly tried to upload separate documents, not realizing that every time you upload a new document, it deletes the previously updated one. So for each upload tab/option, you can only upload one pdf.

Most of the European based Thai embassies require you to be a resident. This is different than the embassies in Southeast Asia.

To apply from a different country, your friend would need to travel there first. That seems like a lot for a tourist visa. Maybe your friend needs to cancel this vacation and apply in a few months

@Zara ******

well that is the lowest threshold visa. If rejected why do you think a new application would be successful?

@Zara ******

what type of visa? I am not an expert but you need to understand why friend was rejected. How would a new application be successful when last wasn’t?

Unfortunately there is no appeal process and they don’t have to supply a reason. It is a difficult situation to be in.

Usually the same length as your application. It isn’t that they are vetting stuff, it is more that they have other applicants ahead of you to review.

If you look, Vietnam has been taking along time as well. Furthermore, not sure you can apply again while you have another application being reviewed. You might want to find that out before heading to Hanoi and then learning that. When did you apply in Cambodia? Can you push back whatever you have in Thailand. June 18 is a good amount of time away.

They want to see the money in a savings or checking account and want to see 6 months of statements to prove that you use that account routinely. It sounds like what you shared with them isn’t what they want.

From what embassy is your wife using for the DTV?
