sorry, forgot what group I was in. Here is my post about it in this group:

@Tod ********
no graphic or updates on their site. Just an email reply from them stating this. They also said it would take around 30 days to receive date October. I’ve since heard all of them are moving to evisa in October. I posted about it in the dtv group.

@Farzad ******
hard to say but I disagree. I think that just more people are going to Laos because its closer / easier to get to, but HCMC has had very positive reviews from the few that have posted.

@George ********
I didn't make the rules. The DTV softpower category includes cooking, boxing, medical apts etc... it does not include studying Thai because that falls under the Education visa. So what is your question?

@Gintas ***
you can't do that. its the rule. its a tourist visa basically. You have to leave every 180 days, or, extend once per year.

@James *******
yeah, I know. Thats the embassy I was talking about in my comment. All the SE asian once seem to report less than 7 days. The evisa consulates are longer.

@James *******
I've read them all, very simple and straightforward. The best part, for me, is the guaranteed 2 days turnover.

@Andi **********
Yeah it is not. I think this is a mistake. The DTV is not for studying - that's the ED visa.

I didn't even know that studying Thai was one of the soft power categories? You would think that an Education visa would be what they would recommend.
