Thai language study Is not for the DTV visa. Find another soft power activity.

Anonymous participant 690 Pardon me but that's not 🚫 correct.

A Thai Visa Agent cannot get you the DTV visa by using fraud in proof of your having a bank account in your name only with 500,000 Thai baht or more for the required months.

You are confusing the DTV visa.

YES, very early on in a few Applications, some Agents tried to fool the Thai Embassy or Consulate where a DTV Visa Application was made. That was quickly discovered by the Thai Embassy or Consulates... and applications were denied.

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.

How about telling us what you have already done ???

Have you already been denied the DTV visa in Vietnam ?

What is your passport nation?

Where are you now?

YES, have the Muay Thai training gym prepare documents to submit to the Thai Embassy or Consulate where you will be applying.

If the Thai Embassy or Consulate requires 6 months of bank account statements, show them 6 months.

With a closing balance of at least 500,000 Thai baht or more.

Be prepared for requests for added documents, such as your sources of income, AND be sure to submit proof of at least 6 months of Muay Thai training.

Do as you wish... but the rules are for you to print out the DTV visa received from the Thai Embassy or Consulate with their email to you.
