DTV visa now requires criminal record clearance and residence proof
Starting 31 August 2026, DTV applicants must submit a criminal record clearance certificate and proof of permanent residence instead of a current location document. The e-Visa system will be closed on 30 August 2026 for updates. Applications submitted before the effective date will still be processed under the old requirements.
What this means for you
- Foreigners applying for a Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) through e-Visa must add a criminal record clearance certificate and show proof of permanent residence instead of proof of current location.
- The change applies from 31 August 2026; applications submitted before that date use the old requirements.
