Went to Kasikorn bank yesterday and got my letter from them and my updated pass book after 1 transaction and my bank statement. 30 mins and no problems. Today I went to immigration for the purpose of obtaining my years extension of stay following on from my non o visa. 3 hours waiting in the queue and 30 mins for the immigration officer to process the paperwork. No problems. No Agent used. MEV also attained. Everything went smoothly and now sorted. Just info for Everyone , if you do things correctly, it's a doddle. Good luck to all.

Hi , my non-o e-visa application based on retirement has been on processing, pending approval since 1st October at London thai embassy. I've not been asked to submit any further documents or photos. I put an expected date of arrival in Thailand as 29/11/25 . Is this normal ?

Hey peeps, can anyone advice on:

1. Any tips on alternatives for apps/platforms (True Money or or..?) that allow scanning for payments in Thailand if we can't open a Thai bank account on a DTV visa? -- Also, how do you top it up? I got True Money but it seems like I can only link it to a Thai bank account, which obviously defeats the purpose.

2. Anyone knows if it's possible to transfer paperwork when buying a motorbike? I'm not sure it can be done on a DTV visa? If so, any idea of what documents are needed?

Thanks!

Hi everyone, quick question - do I need to show a return ticket, when I enter Thailand on the DTV?

Thanks

One question, but can you apply for DTV while you have another visa? Or does it need to be expired/cancelled

Hi friends, I am trying to submit my DTV documents to unlock my features on TrueMoney but when submitting my visa they ask my for workplace in Thailand, obviously since it is a DTV visa we aren't allowed to be working on Thailand. What do you do in this case?

Thank you for all the help 🙏

How have people dealt with the 3MB limit? I struggled with getting everything in order, using different software, merging pdf and minifying images.

Was this a struggle for you guys?

Applied 10/6 through Issacompass.

Paid roughly $1400 for visa fees and muai the courses.

Uploaded my documents, everything handled through them.

Approved 10/14. 8 working days through Chicago consulate.

All in all I highly recommend their services and the application went smoothly.

Before people get in the comments yapping about how you don’t need an agent etc, I was rejected the first time and applied using an agent for peace of mind.

Can’t wait to see Bangkok!!
