Maybe everyone already knows this but I’m currently in the “bank situation” with a bangkok bank account I’ve had for ages. But now I Dtv I’m paranoid so today I went in with my drivers license. That was a no go. They needed passport to “check visa”. I then discovered you can withdrawal on the banking app at the ATMs. Again you guys may know this, but you just use the cardless withdrawal and then go to the atm and scan the code from the atm screen onto the app. Idk how long I’ll get by like this but I’ll take it however long it is.

waiting since 29/9, applied in Brussels, don't understand why it takes so long while all documents are provided, also it's weird they could be asking for additional documents instead of requiring them during the initial upload, that would save so much time, anyways, hope the wait will be over soon...

I moved house and did a new TM.30. Does that mean my next 90 day report schedule restarts? (90 days from now) or do i stick to the old schedule?

Hi, I’m applying for the DTV visa as a freelance business analyst and have just started working independently.

I’ve set up a professional website and created a brand name to present my services more professionally. However, I’m not yet registered as a business, and my income is currently below the £1,000 turnover threshold for self-employment registration.

For my initial invoices, should I issue them under my personal name, or should I include *both my name and my brand name*?

I’m concerned that using only the brand name might *prompt requests for business registration documents*, which I don’t yet have.

My goal is to ensure the visa process goes smoothly, will it open a can of worms adding my brand name on the invoice or is this something that is recommended since I'll be sending screenshots of my website.

Thanks in advance

Advice please.

DTV workation from uk.

My work contract doesn’t specify work location.

I’ve asked my employer about changing it but they have asked, can they not do me an official letter instead. They’ll write what I need.

If they confirm my employment. Years service. Current salary.

Say work is done remotely from home or abroad ( including Thailand) is fine.

Anyone successfully done this? Any tips on what should be included?

TIA

Why dont the banks / goverment allow people on tourist visas to open highly limited bank accounts that could be a win win. E.G limit transfer amounts in / out monthly. Limit transfers to foreign accounts etc that way day to day spening is possible but business / work isn't.

I don't know about you guys but I would be happy with a bank account with a tiny limit such as 1,000 baht per month all my large spending can be on credit card and my small day to day stuff on my thai account.

This limit would stop people running businesses or getting paid through their thai bank accounts but allow legitimate tourists to use the bank account
