Hi there when you mentioned for tm47 & queue online # the front of the line, I haven’t been to division 1 before only the IT Sq location when changing my visa from tourist to Thai national special visa. I know u mentioned 3rd floor but what line are we talking about? The entry line b4 doors open or line after immigration opens to get your spot for meeting with immigration agent? Heard there’s 2 separate lines when the doors open up.

I did and they rejected it & said I had to come in person to manually report.

If you been denied 2x, the Thai Government/Immigration share information & most likely flagged your passport info barring you from renewing until next following year. It doesn't matter if you go to another country they use the same system and can see your denial in there system.

I used Sawasdee Translation for both certified translation & MFA Legalization for my Thai Citizenship Process. They also had options to expedite it as well and they delivered on there promise. NOTE: Be extremely careful who you hire regarding translation. If 1 word or something is off and translates bad then Ministry of Affairs will kick it back and you'll have to redo the translation correctly. You need to choose a competent translator and someone with good relationship with MFA. I provided there business location below:

Even with a valid METV, Thai immigration officers have the final say on entry. If there travel history suggests repeated long stays, they may suspect visa misuse (e.g. living in Thailand rather than genuine tourism) and can deny entry at their discretion rven if the visa hasn’t expired. They still have to abide by the entry and # of days in Thailand rule whether granted METV.

Congrats, careful posting your entire visa info. With the sensitive area blocked you can still see your personal info using special filter editing tools such as removing the noise etc. Your info easily shows, just giving you a friendly heads up to revise your post.

No, it's not true that you can only apply for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) using a smartphone. While some applicants have used mobile devices to complete parts of the application process, you can also apply using a desktop or laptop computer.

How to Apply for the DTV

You can apply for the DTV through Thailand's official e-Visa portal:
*****************************
The application process involves:

1. Creating an Account: Register on the e-Visa portal.

2. Selecting the DTV Option: Choose the Destination Thailand Visa category.

3. Filling Out the Application: Provide personal details, including your permanent address outside Thailand, occupation, and company information.

4. Uploading Documents: Submit required documents such as a recent passport-sized photo, proof of financial stability (e.g., bank statements), and documents supporting your eligibility (e.g., remote work contract).

5. Paying the Visa Fee: The fee is approximately 10,000 THB.

The application can be completed on both mobile and desktop devices. Some applicants have used mobile devices to complete the process, but there is no requirement to use a smartphone.

Important Notes

Application Location: You must apply from outside Thailand. Attempting to apply while in Thailand may lead to complications.

Document Requirements: Ensure all documents meet the specified guidelines to avoid delays.

Processing Time: Processing times can vary depending on the embassy or consulate. Some applicants have reported approval within a few weeks.
