Guys, I’m over the moon right now! 😭🎉 I finally got my visa today 4.40pm, January 17th! I started my application on Sunday, the 12th, in HMC, and after just one week, the long-awaited email arrived at 4:40 PM today! On Tuesday, they requested some additional details about my company (Workation with my own business), and that was it. 

Thank you all so much for your help and support along the way! 🙏

Anonymous participant 762 It depends where you apply on the ease of approval. Some embassies are way tougher than others to apply. There is no 5 year multi entry visa like this in Thailand and elsewhere I believe so people excited at having one is understandable.

Probably. I switched from non-O retirement visa to DTV. Took five days in Sydney. No drama. There's more paperwork involved with extending a non-O marriage visa. I must have missed out on the ecstatic euphoria of congratulations. To me it's a simple process of providing documents required

I just landed at BKK, I did not show a printable DTV , I only showed my phone with the pdf, but it seems enough at least for this officer, anyway I think if you can print (I had two copies just in case), much better.
