Hi I intend to get the Dtv visa by the soft Thai power muay Thai wat.. I can buy the muay Thai fever program for 15000 baths.( They are based in Chang Mai). Anyone has applied Dtv using their invitation letter ? Are they reliable ?

Otherwise are there any reliables muay thaï clubs in Pattaya providing not so expensive Dtv services ? ( Because I plan to stay in Pattaya. So would be more suitable for me)

Thanks everyone.

I just arrived in Bkk today activating my DTV, went smooth, no questions asked.

Here’s what documents I submitted when applied:

- Photo (not older than 6 month)

- Passport

- proof of residence (of my apartment in Germany)

- freelance contract and permission letter to work from abroad (specifically stating Thailand too)

- 500k baht bank statement (money was transferred just before my application, no necessity for proof of 6 month in my bank account)

Applied in Frankfurt, Germany. Visa was approved after 9 days.

Hope this information is helpful. If you have any questions feel free to ask.

Applied through workcation (remote work) category.

Documents submitted:

- Passport bio page (I took a photo and covert it to pdf)

-Passport photo (The embassy does have a requirement for the photo, especially for ladies, if you have long hair, make sure you put your hair back before taking the photo. You can check if the photo meets the requirement when you upload it)

- Entry stamp to Vietnam (also took a photo and covert it to pdf)

- Hotel booking receipt (I booked through agoda, at agoda, you can get an official booking receipt that shows the property address, the dates that you booked).

-Pay slips for the last 6 months with bank statements showing the transfer (merged into 1 pdf) (highlighted the payment transfer)

-Bank statement for the last 6 months showing 500k balance (Highlighted the balance at the end of each month and also covert the amount to THB for each month written next to the opening balance of each month) (merged into 1 pdf)

Additional documents submitted: Was asked to provide the company's vision & mission on the following Monday after I submitted my application. Sent the document on the same day before the embassy closed.

P.S: You can do a draft application before the actual application, so you have an idea of what needs to be submitted.

Thank you again for all the information & tips from this group.

Hello!

Please suggest driving licence agent in Pattaya (reliable and affordable). I tried my level best but it will take months of time and also they are not accepting my Indian driving licence as it is partially damaged. I have done immigration formality and doctors certificate, TM30, form filling but all in vain now.

Preferably a school with good teachers and teaching methods :)
