Attention Attention! Please let this incident be an example to everyone, do good research.

I came to Phuket Muay Thai course with Soft Power DTV. I paid 24000 baht for 6 months, 1 lesson per week. But the gym says that the money I paid is for the visa and does not include the lessons. I have all the documents and invoice. Right now, I want to overcome the language barrier and solve this in a good way. But what should I do if I can't solve it? Thank you.

Good day, having just submitted my 90DR on 12th Feb., I received an email this evening saying it was rejected.

I have been submitting them previously online for at least a year without any problem.

It was submitted within the 15 day period.

Is it okay to try again?

Could there be any reason for this?

Thanks all.

Hi everyone,

I went to Taiwan Taipei Thai embassy on Wednesday Dec 17 9am to apply soft power Muay Thai they told me to come bakc at 3 pm and came late so they told me to come back the next day 3pm. They asked me a few questions like how long have you been in Thailand what do you do for work do you have a Thai bank account they asked me when I first came to Thailand 2018 as a tourist in and out and got stuck out when covid happened. Officially moved to Thailand when I opened a business and worked in it because of covid business slowed down a lot amd we shut it down. After shutting it down I did a education visa and tried to apply for,the Thai elite visa but got refused because education visas were frowned upon (a blessing for me I’d say) and the DTV came out applied for it and got approved picked up my passport.

Now I’m having trouble applying for a motorbike license went to 2 places they both refused because I didn’t have a work permit.im under 50 retired. Anyone know a legit place in Bangkok preferably sathon Rama 3 area.

Thank you all in Advance for taking the time to read this.

Has anyone actually been denied entry and turned away at the airport on a successful DTV, without option to pay some scam fee to get in? If so what were the circumstances of that denial?

## DTV approved but with error.

I'm italian holding an italian passport, living in Malta. Just got my DTV approved but in the vista it's stated:

Passport / TD: Malta

I assume it should be Italy.

Nationality is correct though.

Trying to call the embassy but no reply now.

Is this going to be an issue?

Is there anyone meet situation like "delivered visa by email" but cannot see any visa in your email ? I sure that my email address is correct. It has happened like this for 2 days. Should I contact to The Royal Thai consulate or continue waiting ? Thanks!

Potential problem discovered today. Some immigration offices may ask you for proof your bank deposit came from abroad. Many people use online banks like Wise. But Wise send from their Wise London bank to a partner bank in Thailand, and then on to your bank. So your deposit's code in your Thai bank is not from abroad. Immigration can therefore make this an obstacle - that needs overcoming - to get your visa. Note: not all offices or officers ask for this apparently.

UPDATE: According to others, it seems this problem has been solved by Wise giving an option to send "funds for longstay". If, like me however, you sent the funds before this option was available, the problem remains. You will most likely have to resend the funds from abroad. My local office will not accept the Wise (funds sent) statement as proof.
