Sharing my DTV Journey so far + Question:

I submitted on 2/10 in HCMC.

2/14 status changed to "Pending approval" and now 2/17 it is back to Pending document check.

Has anyone experienced this?

UPDATE: 7 PM Visa approved

How long processing for approve Non-O 90 Days Marriage (Thai wife) I submit with Munich Embassy?

Thought I'd share my DTV process for those who is going medical route in HCMC Vietnam.

-Applied for HCMC Consulate

-Took a day before requesting for documents

-I moved money to personal bank account to be sure (well over the 500k baht since it's joint )

-for documentation of what medical care plan

-I'm an athlete with injuries so I showed diagnosis, MRI's, multiple doctors visits, PT , receipts, and treatment plan over the next few months. (all done at thai hospitals and had wet stamps) Also had a cover letter explaining what each document was.

-they replied and said my bank statement was not correct (which was the only option I had from my bank). so I took a screenshot of the account activities and sent that with the previous bank statements that they said was not a bank statement.

-They followed up and asked for a selfie with the date and my name on the receipt at the location I'm in.

-Approved 3 days later.

I've also found when it asked for help here there were a couple trolls who weren't very knowledgeable and specifically an old guy who was a "top contributor" that sounded adamant I won't get it.

so just be prepared in the requirements and read other stories of what others have submitted.

No interview needed

My Experience with the DTV Visa - Applying from India

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share my experience applying for the DTV Visa under the Digital Nomad / Workcation category.

A big thank you to this group! The posts and shared experiences from other members were incredibly helpful.

I applied for the DTV Visa on February 10th from India, selecting the New Delhi embassy. I paid the visa fee of 10,000 THB via bank deposit at a DBS Bank branch.

## Documents Submitted:

* A formal letter on my company’s letterhead, signed and stamped, explaining my work.

* A No Objection Letter (NOC) from the Board of Directors, confirming that my company has no issues with me working remotely.

* My company’s Incorporation Certificate and GST Certificate.

* My personal bank statement for the past three months. (I didn’t maintain a balance of 500,000 THB consistently, but I had around 600,000 THB in my account for the past week.)

* My recent income tax return, showing my annual income.

* For proof of current location, I submitted my national ID and the most recent Indian entry stamp on my passport.

* For accommodation, I booked a "pay at hotel" reservation for 81 days and entered those details.

That’s all I submitted.

I applied yesterday, and today, I received my visa via email!

I hope this helps. 😊

Did anyone receive the visa email after working hours or during the Weekend? Or will it be another weekend in Phnom ??

I'm so suprised my visa got approved yesterday (Sunday) after applying on the 23rd Jan in Hanoi! Technically less than 3 business days (because of Tet). I was really worried it wouldn't get approved in time for my flight out of here on the 6th. They didn't ask to see passport pages (apart from entry stamp the next day after application).

Hey guys I got my DTV visa, its in my email. How does it work? Next time I go to thailand I show that email to immigration and they will print it on my passport?

DTV approved in Dubai, applied the 19th and approved today Jan 30

So happy

Please !! For the ones who got approved/Denied for the DTV specifically regarding the Thai soft power activities may you please share your experience and if you completed the application online or at a embassy and the reasoning for getting denied/approved also how many months do I need to enroll in a activity.

Thank you In advance
