Who we are
Soft Power Route ("we," "us," "our") is an independent comparison resource for people applying for Thailand's Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) through Muay Thai training or Thai cooking courses. By using this site or purchasing the full guide, you agree to these terms.
What we are, and what we're not
Program details on this site (prices, durations, documentation status) are provided by schools directly or gathered from public sources, and may change without notice. Always confirm current details with the school and current requirements with Thai immigration or a licensed advisor before applying.
No guarantee of visa approval
Following our guides, templates, or checklists does not guarantee that your DTV application will be approved. The decision to approve or reject any visa application rests entirely with Thai immigration authorities and the relevant embassy or consulate, based on factors outside our knowledge or control. We help you prepare and organize a strong application - we cannot control or predict the outcome.
The full guide purchase
Purchasing the full guide gives you access to the Application Guide, Cover Letter & Document Organizer, Program Comparison Worksheet, Common Rejection Reasons & Fixes, Fastest-Approving Embassies, and the Application Tracker, for your personal use in preparing your own DTV application.
This access is for your personal, individual use only. You may not resell, redistribute, or share your access or the downloaded templates with others outside your own application.
Your access lasts for as long as we continue to operate this service. If we ever decide to discontinue Soft Power Route, we'll give at least 30 days' notice by email to registered accounts, and will make reasonable efforts to provide a downloadable archive of the guide's content before the service closes.
See our Refund Policy for how refunds work for this purchase.
Featured placement & paid listings
Some schools pay for featured placement on our homepage. This is clearly labeled, and paid placement does not indicate our endorsement of a program's quality - it's an advertising arrangement, separate from our independent comparison content.
Accuracy and "documentation confirmed" status
Where a school is marked "Documentation confirmed," this reflects our own research into whether that school appears to provide proper DTV documentation, based on the sources available to us at the time. It is not a guarantee, and we encourage you to confirm directly with any school before enrolling, regardless of its status on our site.
Intellectual property
The content, design, and templates on this site are our property or used with permission. You may use downloaded templates for your own personal DTV application; you may not republish, resell, or distribute our content elsewhere without permission.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss arising from your use of this site or the full guide, including but not limited to a rejected visa application, financial loss, or reliance on information that has since changed. This doesn't affect any liability that can't be excluded under UK law, such as liability for fraud.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, and any disputes will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
