Which agent can help open a bank account with the DTV in Bangkok? I could also go to Pattaya if it's easier to do it there, but for now prefer Bangkok, since I'm currently here.

Have a tax filling question related to the DTV Soft Power option. I have not applied yet.

I have seen posts stating being asked to submit the previous years Tax Filing. Is this a requirement for everyone and is it posted anywhere?

I have comprehension issue reading so I may have read it and misinterpreted it.

For the past 5 years I have not been legally required to file taxes in my home country, so I haven't. My current retirement income is tax free and I am to young for a Thailand retirement visa.

I can file taxes in my home country if required for the DTV.

Thanks for any knowledge.

Hi, I'm here on the DTV visa and need to do 90 day report soon. Can someone confirm that I should be going to IT Square Laksi rather than Chang Wattana? (have heard people going to CW were directed to IT Square). Also I wanted to book the appointment on-line but the IT Square choices do not include 90 day reporting.

Thanks

So my wife of 3 years, who has returned to Thailand again, following her second visit to the USA on her Tourist Visa, has been patiently waiting for USCIS to respond to her Green Card application/Spousal Visa for 13 months- that’s 13 months since they received her I-130. She has to get a medical exam done in Bangkok only (we’re told) once she gets an approval.

I am going over to be with her for 2 months on January 23. We’re wondering if we should go ahead, in early March, and get her medical exam scheduled and over with, anticipating word from USCIS. That way she could possibly finish her interview process in the USA, if she returns with me in late March- thoughts??

Hi, did anyone get the visa while living in Thailand already?

I applied for it with pick-up in my home country but they just rejected it and don't answer now. Kind of annoying, 10k thb down the drain.

Hi! Question regarding passport requirements.

I know it says your passport needs to be valid for 6 months when applying, but does anyone know if you need a certain number of pages?

I only have 5 or 6 pages left and I’m worried if the visa plus all the extension - leaving and coming back stamps - will be too many stamps.

Obviously can’t have the visa in one passport and then get a new passport at a later date to continue the stamps…

Any ideas?

Hi I am wondering, do you need to prove 500k thb in your bank at every re-entry/extensions? Or just show it one time when applying? Thx

Hi, In regards to the flight number. Which flight number do I put in when it's not a direct flight. The one from my current location or the connecting flight that actually lands in Bangkok?

Hello everyone,

I’ve been following the posts in this group for the past few months and have gathered a lot of helpful information. However, I still have a specific question and would appreciate your advice. What would you do in my situation?

Key Information:

1. I live in Europe, in Country X (my home country), but I am employed by a multinational company in Country Y (also in Europe).

2. I manage three personal bank accounts:

* 1x in Country Y: This is where I receive my salary from the company and keep most of my savings.

* 1x in Country X: I use this for paying a few expenses, mortgages, and receiving rental income.

* 1x Revolut account: Connected to my bank account in Country Y, primarily for personal expenses. I pay mostly everything with Revolut.

3. I own two companies in Country X:

* Company A: I hold 100% ownership, and it deals with IT projects.

* Company B: I have a 25% ownership stake, and it is a gamer product brand.

* I do not withdraw money from these companies in an “official” manner, so there are no personal transactions attached to me from them.

4. I own two rental properties in Country X and earn income as a sole proprietor, which is deposited into my bank account in Country X.

Question:

When submitting the application, what should I include?

Should I list everything (main job + companies + rental units), or focus on just one aspect?

Thank you in advance. If you have any additional tip, please share with me.

I’m considering the ED vs the DTV. My husband and I both want to learn Thai, but I also intend to work my remote job (I’m an independent mental health practitioner with a virtual practice). I’m reading that I would not be ALLOWED to work, even remotely, if I chose the ED route. The intention with choosing the ED route is to extend the total time we are able to stay…I would pick up the DTV after my ED is completed and my husband would come as my dependent. What problems or issues would you foresee? What advice would you offer? And is this something I should attempt to navigate without any professional guidance from someone who practices immigration law here in the USA? Side note to add, I’m planning for the future, not an immediate move. I’m also hoping that you guys can offer some advice on locations we should visit when we come as tourists (for 2 weeks or so) that would help us determine the area we want to focus on to settle in. We will be prioritizing safety, amenities, affordability and proximity to a school and an embassy or immigration office for future business.
