Anonymous participant bear in mind that Monday 14th is a Thai holiday so all Thai consulates will be closed.

Good luck.

Yes. I went to a medical clinic in BKK. They provided signed and stamped letter and appointment schedule for the dates and date range I required.

You can PM me if you’d like more info.

I had a similar dilemma, not about the 90 day reporting which isn’t a hassle to me because I travel frequently, but more about the inconvenient dates of annual renewal.

My Non O retirement (extension and multi re-entry) is due to expire on 30th December, and as I plan to travel over Christmas time I didn’t want the constraint of being in Thailand during the preceding three ish weeks to undergo the renewal process. So I decided to apply for a DTV.

Yesterday I successfully applied in Jakarta under Soft Power medical. I provided a doctor’s diagnosis letter from a Bangkok clinic together with a schedule of four appointments over a period of 3-4 months, all signed by the doctor and stamped by the clinic.

I’m not sure. Mainly the fact that most ASEAN zone consulates are switching tomorrow 8th Oct, and I read a post on this group that an applicant had emailed the Jakarta consulate asking about the switch and received a reply saying it was postponed until the end (vague) of the month. Probably worth emailing the consulate for a reliable answer.

I downloaded from their website. Recommended. The security guy at entrance has some too. Some of the early queuers missed their slots because they were filling them in in the application room. 🤪

No. not at the moment. I believe they’re switching to the e-visa application process at the end of the month.

See my comment above regarding details. Walk in. I was first in line, arriving at 7.30am. Door opens at 9am. By 7.45 there were 15 ish in the queue. By 8.30 about 40 people.

When I walked out at 9.04am there were about 5 people inside and over 50 outside.

I got their ultra early but had a GRAB Starbucks delivery to the queue. So it went quickly. 🤪
