Hello. Has anyone managed to book a ticket on the official Thai Railway website? Apparently, train reservations are only possible the day before the travel date?

Is there any actual requirement for how long the 500,000THB must be in your account for? I’m seeing nothing online about there having to be a strict time frame however it seems they’re less likely to accept if less payslips? Thanks for your help!

I

informed that I could apply for a non-O (marriage visa) Visa in Thailand, having spoken to immigration they informed me that I can’t get an O Visa unless I have a bank account. So I went to the bank and the bank said. I can’t get a bank account as I don’t have a long-term Visa. What is this all about?  is there a way of sorting this out in Thailand or do I need to go back to the UK and sort it?

Hi there,

I just applied today for my DTV visa. I am an offshore worker from UK. I live in Phuket Thailand but have been using the tourist visa with no problems for the past few years. After returning to Phuket from work last time I was told I cannot keep using the free visa.

I submitted today all my information, 6 months of payslips, bank account savings in showing over the required amount. My work gave me a letter to confirm I am a remote worker but put my passport I was using up until earlier this year. I still have the passport but I am concerned that they may reject based on that it is not the same as the passport I submitted. I have applied to the Thai embassy in South Africa.

Does anyone have any insight on my situation or anyway I can send an updated document to the embassy now that it is submitted?

Many thanks

Im currently applying from Vietnam the DTV. I can only upload one document for each section. What would you recommend as a freelancer to upload: CV, portfolio, contract with customer or references? Or should i make one PDF in put all my contracts, bills, documents together in one PDF and upload? Please help me :D ☺🤓🙆
