For the DTV is the 500,000 baht requirement just for your current balance? Or do all 3 bank statements you submit need to be above 500,000 baht?

My closing statements are:

August $20,000 (650k baht)

Sept $15,300 (498k baht) at today's exchange rate

Oct $18,000 (580k baht)

Nov $19,000 ($610k baht)

Am I going to be rejected because of my September statement?

Are there certain consulates that are bad and good for this?

Have USA Passport and applying for Workation Freelancer.

Thinking of applying in Taipei, HCMC, Hanoi, or Manila. I'm already in Asia.

Hi! Last December I arrived to Thailand and left for a 3 week long trip to Cambodia before exceeding the 60 days, around the early days of February. I came back to Bangkok at the end of February. Stayed until the end of April, then returned to Hungary, my home country.

I travelled back to Thailand at the end of September (so I spent 5 months outside of the country) and will fly to Vietnam this weekend. I have never exceeded the 60 days before leaving and never had a visa extension. I plan returning to Thailand in the middle of December. Should I worry about getting rejected and start thinking about applying for a visa instead of getting the usual stamp at arrival?

I want to apply for the DTV visa but under soft core heading how would one sign up for activities when you are not currently in Thailand. Would Immigration issue the visa on the basis that you will sign up for a course when you arrive in Thailand.

Hi

I have received

my NON-O retirement Visa and will be leaving on the 11 of Dec 25

To Bangkok Thailand

I have secured a condo

For a year s lease

And will take the necessary docs to immigration and then to a Bank to open a Bank Account my question is what steps to take to deposit the required monies into the new Thai bank after opening this bank account

I can have the required monies

Sent directly to bank in Thailand thru USA bank

But that would take some time

Hours days ? does bank allowed

Time for monies to transfer

As I would not have the required deposit on my person

Please advise as to how to

Accomplish this task

Thanks

Quick question, does the 90 day reporting rule apply for the DTV VISA if you're in the country for more than 90 days? Also can it be done online or do I have to go to the immigration off office? I had a look online it the visa it applies all other visa except DTV? Maybe the site I was reading hasn't updated it for the DTV VISA because it is fairly new.

Hello,

They have requested more documentation

‘A recently letter/reference letter confirming employment/contract details from your Contractor or Client or Accountant stating your work role as remotely worker in Thailand (address to Royal Thai Embassy in London) signed by an authorised person’

I am a co-owner of an LLC. Do I make a letter to myself confirming that I can work remote?

Entered at CNX today with no questions (pre-filled TDAC, laminated DTV). Funny story though: I put the date of a flight out that I picked randomly in March (using an onward air service) because I always worry about being rejected for not having an onward ticket. They stamped my passport for DTV, but put the exit date as the date in March. I was planning to take a trip out sooner than 6 months anyway but be warned!

If you have the DTV for Thai language lessons, how long are you allowed to be out of the country? For example, if we wanted to travel somewhere in Asia for a couple of weeks, would that be allowed? I haven't found any information on this.

Hi, has any Filipino crossed Thailand with a DTV visa? What are the common questions? Do you really need to print all the documents and the return ticket? I heard they can be strict with asian nationalities. Thank you.
