Anonymous participant - I do know the consular section is responsible for both visas and supporting Thai nationals in Cambodia. The tensions between the two countries have probably lead to more work on supporting Thai nationals. Furthermore, Thailand did request all Thai nationals to leave Cambodia, and that would include non-essential staff and family of essential staff. These things slow reviews down.

Anonymous participant - so it isn’t the nationality (some South Asians and African passports take a month)

I am sure the holiday didn’t help. What is your nationality?

If you currently have a valid tourist visa, you can’t apply for DTV

Suggest looking at what visas are available for you and also health insurance options. Those are pretty important factors when making a decision

Anonymous participant - It says it here.

Anonymous participant What information is wrong on their website?

Anonymous participant - This has been discussed many times here. You could have merged documents together into one pdf. For example, whatever document you shared that showed you were a digital nomad, could have been multiple pages, including your portfolio.

Anonymous participant - They reviewed your application and determined you were not eligible based on the documents you submitted. Why is that a scam? That is how all visa applications work

Anonymous participant unfortunately, there is no appeal process. You know the Thai culture of saving face. Once a decision is made, it is final.
