Are you the American wife and child of the American who just received the DTV visa in Hanoi Vietnam?



"Hi everyone

my husband got approved under DTV

thank you for this group and all the helpful information 😀

we applied in Hanoi on the 8th 8 AM of october

same day they requested more documents: stamp on the passport for being outside of thailand, for the 500k baht we used his dad as sponsor( since we travel alot and we recently purchased a house in another country we did not have it in our checking accounts for the past 3 months and we decided last minute on staying in thailand. they asked for his dad’s bank statement which we got the stamped 3 months of his balance from the bank). and they requested documents showing the relationship with his dad which we provided birth certificate. the status changed to pending approval on the 9th and we just received the approval."

@Rasim *******

all DTV Visas are issued as Multiple Entry visas valid for 5 years with a 180 day stamp on each entry into Thailand.

Anonymous participant thank you 👍 Are you now going to apply for dependent DTV visas for family members of your husband? Or do you already have a DTV Visa?

What is your passport nation?

Where are you now located?

What is your recent history of staying or entering Thailand?

Why do you want to get the DTV visa?

None... do your research. Thai language is an Ed Visa not for the DTV visa.

Are you Thai married to your foreigner husband who has received the DTV visa?

What is your husband's passport nation?

What is your passport nation?

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.

Wonderful 👍

There's no requirement to keep your funds in the same bank account which you used when you applied for the DTV visa.

Note the overwhelming advice from many to 🚫 not seek to obtain a 180 day extension inside Thailand.

Simply do land, air or sea border bounce to get a new 180 day stamp.
