How can I apply for a visa for Soft Power activities at a Thai language school in Chiang Mai with an Argentinian passport?
John *******
Many embassies won’t issue you a DTV for Thai language. Suggest reaching out to the specific embassy in advance

Why was my DTV Soft Power visa application cancelled after submitting all required documents?
John *******
Where are you physically located? You state you plan to cover yourself using your savings, but the embassy will see that your bank didn’t have much savings more than the last few months. Crypto and gold won’t be sufficient evidence

How can I communicate with the embassy about my pending DTV visa application from Pakistan?
John *******
Are you Pakistani? If so, it will probably take 45+ days for review. From the few others on here who applied via Islamabad, I believe they all were rejected.

Why was my workation visa application rejected in Hanoi despite providing all requested documents?
John *******
Anonymous participant - Ok, just making sure, since there is also a consulate in HCMC. If you were in the southern half of the country, you would have needed to apply via them. But it sounds like this isn’t why you are rejected.
