Anonymous participant jakarta is the only embassy that does that though mate, good luck

Just a tip ... the last few weeks jakarta have started asking for evidence of previous soft power activity. Its really strange ... people going for our Muay Thai visa have been asked to provide evidence that they are already into muay thai. Its caused problems this last few weeks so keep that in mind. They dont ask everyone .. maybe random maybe certain nationalities.

We just had a customer approved in 7 days in Hanoi. But it can be longer depending on there workload. We found its best not to put address in Thailand as home address. Put an address in your home passport country, they like to see yoi have a base at home rather than telling them you already live in Thailand. I guess you could put UAE address too.

MJ can you help my customer? She has the DTV printout but it displays her old passport number. She just really needs that communicating to the IO when she enters Thailand.

London is a great embassy to apply to never had any silly problems from London. Congratulations

They have a habit of issuing Ed visa instead of DTV which is a massive problem as DTV gyms are usually not licensed schools with the education authority. Causes so many problems. We completely avoid japan now. Waste of time and money

1300 ukp is approximately 60,000 baht can definitely get by in a place like chiang mai if not too much into partying

thanks mate, yes our objective is to use the DTV money to create the best gym possible. We are working very hard on that. If and when DTV ends we will have an elite Muay Thai gym as a legacy.

Muay Thai Fever did the first ever DTV for MuayThai and have been market leaders ever since. Very few gyms have compliance with all 3 governing bodies. Sports Authority, Board of Boxing Sport and Ministry of Education.

6 months is the benchmark but each embassy is different. London have been accepting 6 minths i just had Moscow tell one of ny applicants they want to see a 5 year course though 😲
