Greetings

Can anyone advise please?

The Customer Service Officer for International Centralised Services International here in NZ has indicated that a client declaration (standard form) needs to be completed every 6 months while away overseas to ensure continuation of Superanuation payments.

This declaration requires a witness signature, and if to be e-mailed in return also requires a stamp.

The stamp must show the city/country that the witness is in.

If you post the form, you do not need to have it stamped by the witness as the postal stamp will show this.

Can anyone advise where such a stamp may be located, or offer advise pl.

Thanks

The approval of my DTV visa. I was never asked by Thai immigration to produce the DTV visa; they merely stamped my passport.

I paid less than 10,000 baht for the soft power (cooking class), but the price has already increased.

QUESTIONS RE AUSTRALIA & AGENT

🙏

Hello! I’ve searched the group which is very helpful but I haven’t found an answer to these specifically.

I am wanting to apply at the Thai Embassy in Australia for a soft power DTV (currently in Thailand on Ed visa) so will go home to Australia when my Ed visa expires and apply so I can continue my Muay Thai training (DTV wasn’t a thing when I applied for my Ed)

1. Does anyone have any recommendations for an agent they used and were successful using for Australia specifically???

2. My partner is working here on a work visa and supporting me and our baby so I don’t have an income currently as I’m a stay at home mum. But I have the required $$$ in my bank. I am hoping an agent can assist with my documents to best explain this situation ect because I understand even with soft power they are now asking how you intend to support yourself. We are not married by paper but considered defacto under Australian law which the Thai embassy have already told me is not a problem when I emailed them as we share a bank account. Has anyone had any success in a similar situation in Australia?

3. Any other infomation those who were successful in Australia would like to share that I haven’t seen already in search function 🙂

Question about document translations for the DTV Visa

Hi everyone,

For those of you who have already submitted your DTV Visa application:

Did you upload any documents that were not in English (for example, in French, Spanish, Russian, Chinese, etc.) and still got approved?

If yes, could you please share:

What language were your documents in?

What kind of documents were they (bank statements, proof of income, etc.)?

And most importantly, were they accepted without certified translation?

I’m a French Canadian, and when I look at the cost of getting all my documents certified translated, it ends up costing more than a SoftPower Muay Thai training package 😅

In my case, my professional portfolio consists of notarized contracts proving my private lending activity. Since each contract includes multiple clauses and conditions, each document is around 12 pages long, which makes translation very expensive.

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience! 🙏

[HANOI - SOFT POWER COOKING]

Hi everyone. I plan to apply for the DTV visa at the end of July/ start of August. However, I'm a bit worried about the 500k baht.

Right now I've got 350k in my bank account, but won't receive the rest until July 20th ish. Will it still be ok if I technically just have the 500k 1.5 weeks before applying? Or you would advise that I gather the funds a bit quicker / delay my application date a bit?

I have used the search function of course but just want more definite confirmation. Thanks for all your help and support on this group!

I have not approved for the dtv visa yet because I was wondering if I have to always keep 15000 in my bank account in order to renew my visa or is it just the first time applying

My wife and I would like to move to Thailand next year with non-O retirement visa. My understanding for lump sum money that we need to deposit in Thai Bank is 800k + 400k = 1.2 Mil tbh. Is this the same if my wife comes to Thailand a little later than me, say 3 or 4 months later? Or does she have to apply for her visa on her own and we need total of 1.6 million tbh? Another possibility is for her to follow me like 6 months later. If she does that, can we re-use the 800k that I used to get my extension by depositing into a bank account under her name? TIA

I will be applying soon in Warsaw, Poland. I’m polish citizen. My plan:

-biodata of passport ( should I add photo of page showing that I left Thailand??)

- photo taken one day before applications

- copy of polish id and sworn translation of my residency in Poland

- sworn translation bank statement indicating amount of 530 000 bht

-employment certificate ( not work agreement because I have low salary) written in English with information from my employer that I can work remotely in Thailand-should this be sworn translation also?

- documents indicating that my company has active status from tax office (should this be also sworn translation to English?

I will appreciate Any feedback .

Edit-all documents should be merged into one pdf file?

Regards

DTV extension. Some say we have to resubmit all docs again for the extension after the initial 180 days of DTV visa. (hope this is a joke)

OR, we can do border run to extend it without going through the docs check.

Cause my concern is, what if one does not have the employment anymore after the initial approval of the DTV visa. I think they can still keep the visa status somehow, I heard.

thanks for you help!!
