@John ******

maybe, but the one I saw and worked on was the same as the originator has posted !

@John ******

Found it from another post on here by the originator..." short term educational course" that was on the original schedule, and based on that, that's how I got the DTV

@Alma **************

Yes, that's the original wording, and based on short term educational course, that's how I got the visa...

@Elías *******

may be correct now, but wasn't back in the early days of the visa

@John ******

The wording has changed now compared to back in July when it was first announced. I can't find my original copy unfortunately, but it definitely had reference to education or something that related to learning the language...otherwise I wouldn't have applied that way...

@Charles *********

probably referring to my post. I say, yet again...and I have actually been called a liar on this forum, that I successfully obtained my DTV from the Thai embassy in London, and within around 10 days based on enrolling on a Thai language course in Bangkok.

I now await all the comments from the experts, and the know all to shoot it down yet again....of course, this may not be the case anymore...but I know of one other person who after contacting me, also was successful via language course from London.

@Pete ******

correct....I did

@John ******

well, just to satisfy you I did try to upload a copy of my DTV to this site....but it appears your admin have blocked it ! It went to them for approval yesterday....but still not up on the site. So, looks like you will have to think what you like...

@John ******

...unbelievable!!

@John ******

suit yourself mate....I am not in the habit of lying. I will repeat yet again for all you doubters out there...I applied for a DTV at the Thai embassy in London based on learning the Thai language at a language school in Bangkok. Repeat again...DTV...not ED. It was approved within around 7 days, and that's after submitting further details they requested. I have been in Thailand since 16th October, stamped in for 6 months. Showed immigration the DTV visa, sailed through no problem. I have completed one month of Thai language, second month coming up, although there are no requirements from anyone, at the moment anyway, to prove I have done course at all.

And go check out the school...they are very good.



There, you have all the information from me now...happy ?
