Has anyone applied for DTV with a joint bank account? Do I need to be the main account holder? I’ve tried to email the Los Angeles consulate but no response.
Online info on Thai visas is generally out of date and not synchronized with actual requirements of Immigration at the Bangkok airports. In Taipei I scurried about to prepare documents for Visa on Arrival, following online instructions, and then after arriving I was told that those rules were no longer valid. All I needed was my passport (USA in my case) and boarding pass for 45-day visa exemption. So to celebrate I went straight to my favorite little restaurant on the first floor of Tharathip Mansion near Ari and Saphan Khwai stations. The best spring rolls in Bangkok! Delicious Chinese noodles-and-ham dish too...
I'm a work permit holder. My husband got a visa to accompany me from the Thai consulate in LA, California but they mistakenly listed the reason as "Thai wife". Our local immigration office won't grant an extension of stay until the mistake is corrected, but I can't get any response from the consulate in LA.
I'm thinking that we'll have to exit the country, apply again at a consulate outside of Thailand, and return. Is that correct?
(I get zero visa support from my employer for family members. Even getting the appropriate documents to apply for the visa was a struggle.)
The EVisa portal is requesting a document but I haven’t received an email regarding what documentation I actually need. I’ve sent multiple emails to the embassy and tried getting through on the phone but no luck. Anybody have any advice on want to do? It’s the Washington DC embassy.
I emailed them to check If I needed proof of income, they sent back a check list and said no proof needed. But you do need a police check now.
One wk later, I handed in my Paperwork and they said "where is your proof of income". I said your consulate sent me a check list last week and said I didn't need one. But he wasnt interested and was quick to push my paperwork back to me. Luckily I had printed off a bank statement showing I had 20,000 in the bank, (just incase they rejected my app and I would have to get a Tourist Visa.) He was quite disappointed when i produced the proof of income.
Info about Tourist Visa.
My daughter had to get a tourist visa for the 3rd time as her school mucked up her paperwork twice.
They checked her paperwork and took her money, gave her her passport back the next day with her Visa in.
Customs at Don Muang refused her and after over an hour interrogation, they allowed her 30days after watching her book and pay for a flight back to the UK. So was Penang wrong to except her application?.
Another friend went to get her first Tourist Visa in hoi chi min. Again they accepted her app and took her money. When she went to pick up, the visa was in her passport but with void stamped all over it. She had also now got 30days left in Thailand.
Sorry for long post, but thought this info might help some people.
