they can cancel it on the spot. Your DTV visa is only a permit to take the flight. Thai immigration has final discretion on admittance 🙏

agree with you this has created so much trouble that i believe they will make changes to the program. I dont see this visa staying in its current form for long due to fraud misued etc. If you get stop by immigration dont argue with them. They have final descretion on admittance. The visa is only the permit to take a flight into THAILAND thats it. They can cancel your visa with no questions asked by nobody. I will just be cautious 🙏

Anonymous participant 725 with all the fraud, misuse and abuse all of them actually. There are just too many people that have been approved for this visa but should not have. Those advocate for making stories and not actually providing what is required at the most embassies at the moment. From what i have seen at Hanoi they dont seem to care much at the “pending document check “ stage but as it goes into “pending approval” they are looking close into the financials to see if you can support yourself. The gurus here keep pushing the idea that only 3 month are required at hanoi but i sent 6 bank statements in detail showing movement and highliting the salary payments i did to myself. As for my wife application they dont seem to dig much as long as you have the money. For her case was 500k and mine was also 500k so a million was required for her visa approval. 🙏

Anonymous participant 725 good luck to you. Send the most information you can send to them and this will save you time, and back and forth requests for multiple documents that will affect the timeline of approval. Your application should have responses to ALL THE ANSWERS of all their possible questions. Good luck 🙏

ohh ok yes because you work for a company they know the visa fees for the dtv are way cheaper than a regular business visa. I am 99% sure this is what is giving them trouble. Send that YOUR ACTIVITIES CLIENTS MONEY ETC OCCUR OUTSIDE OF 🇹🇭 this will satisfy the requirement . Good luck 🙏

Include your company allows you to work in thailand. I made a recommendation letter for myself since im my own boss. Get a supervisor to do this for you include responsabilities etc. Also that YOUR INCOME COMES FROM OUTSIDE THAILAND AND YOU WONT SEEK LOCAL EMPLOYMENT as there are other visas for that. For your profile they might be trying to find out you dont have any thai local clients etc. good luck 🙏

i would not use a Thai Bank account as they want the money to come to Thailand and i really dont see how you would have a bank account at this point. Maybe if you had another visa before that allowed you to do it than it would be ok i guess. I would also advise you to apply once the money has been there enough time 3 months but i would do it for 6 months to justify the consular officer you have the means to stay in thailand for 5 years. Good luck
