I just got approved for DTV from Los Angeles and I wanted to share my experience.

Applied February 4th and got approved February 14th.

Applied under soft power and pre-paid muay thai classes for 9 months. This school had many branches and it was close to my condo. 9 months was the only length they had.

Provided only 1 month of bank statement. Drivers license for proof of residence in the US. Flight number but no proof of flight purchased required. Condo address in Bangkok but didn't have to show proof of a lease.

It was fairly easy. They didn't ask for any more info. Just be careful with the birthday. It kept changing on its own by one day or one year. Make sure you look at your birthday carefully on the last page before you submit. Also, I have a hyphen in my middle name and I thought I forgot to put it in the application. Make sure your name looks identical to your passport.

Hi Everyone!

Is there anyone applying DTV with Muay Thai class / cooking class in Bangkok?

Hey guys 👋🏻 can i still attach my spouse to my visa as a dependent when applying through muay thai classes? Should I buy a new class after 6 month or provide any proofs that I still learn muay thai?

Just got my DTV from the Thai embassy in Laos

Thanks to everyone in this group for their guidance and advice....

My process that I followed

Getting a Laos visa (as a UK passport holder) - USD 40 if you do VOA (visa on arrival)

Evisa option only available now as all bookings this month are full up

- 6 months bank statements showing THB 500k minimum (lucky I have a Thai bank account

but you can do with your home country bank statements showing the equivalent)

- Proof of residency (copy of lease agreement etc)

- photocopy of your passport BIO page

- photocopy of the Laos visa page (did not know this at the time..lucky photocopy place across the road)

- paperwork from the Muay Thai (fitfac) in Bangkok showing DTV approval

- proof of payment for the Muay Thai classes (photocopy needed)

- THB10000 in cash for the non refundable embassy charge.

Had appointment on the Thursday morning and picked up the visa on the Monday (13:30)

Now taking a bus (from app 12GO) from Vientiene to udon Thani (around thb200)

Feel free to ask any questions..but thanks again to the members of this group for their valuable contributions ...good luck to those going through the process

Hi, Do websites exist that provide information on Muay Thai classes and cooking classes that are Dtv Friendly, including options and associated costs? Kinda like a Dtv approval search engine ?

Is it possible to apply for this DTV visa if my only method of income is online trading? I don’t have a contract with any company, I just trade with my MT5 account for income. If so, what information would be needed to apply?

Finally I've got DTV visa for 5 years!

I've used Thai soft power , 0 documents about salary have been send .

Thx everyone who helped me !!!

Just a question... Is any type of dtv (digital nomad, muay Thai, cooking classes, etc) valid for 5 years renewing every 180 days?

Hello, I’m looking to apply for the DTV visa online. Is proof of one month Muy Thai classes enough to apply or does it need to be more time? I saw a few ppl mention Tiger Eye, any other suggestions would be appreciated . Thanks!

Hi everyone, i want to apply for DTV visa and im looking for muay thai classes that could provide relevant documents to support the application. I’d also like to ask, do i still need documents from employer to prove that im working remotely or 500 000 in my bank account is enough? Thank you!😊
