Excuse me, would it be acceptable to demonstrate that I transfer 65,000 baht monthly to my wife's account, or is it necessary for me to possess my own account for a retirement visa?

I need to go to Laksi immigration next week - but even when I arrive early - the security guard won’t let me in until 8am.

When I’m finally allowed in there’s already a huge number of people waiting inside.

Is there a secret entrance somewhere?

I’ve tried other doors but all the automatic doors don’t open until 8am.

Thanks for any help

Hi, can someone recommend a Thai tax advisor? I'm planning on moving from the US to Thailand and need to understand the tax implications. Thank you.

Hi folks, a little bit of help about applying for an OA Thai retirement visa. Primarily for applications submitted outside of New South Wales Australia. We are currently in the process of applying for our new Visa. We have in the past lodged the application via mail to Canberra. We are in the belief that this hasn’t changed however it is required via online if living in NSW. We have had conflicting information in this regard. Can anyone out there who has recently gone through this process and can give us the correct information help in this regard.

We know what we have to do however all we are wanting to know is if the process hasn’t changed for Oz residents outside of NSW. TIA

Hello ! I'm currently writing my application on the thai e visa website, and my home city is not listed in the dropdown menu. I can put my girlfriend address but I won't have any utility bill under my name.

Question:

- Does the document indicating current location has to be at the same address than the one I put on the application

- Otherwise, what document can I provide ? Proof of accommodation + utility bill under my gf name ?

Embassy of application : Paris

Thanks !

Looking to see if anyone has had their DTV approved by only having the funds in their account for less than 2-3 months.

I've heard people being approved after a week applying from Taipei.

I'll be applying from London and would love to hear other people's experiences. Thanks.

If I want to show as many funds as possible, just to make my approval chances higher, how it may work if I have 2 banks and savings divided between them?

Can I submit 2 statements and cover letter explaining the whole sum recalculated into THB? (Please leave a comment if yoy have done it this way).

Or will it be better to transfer and accumulate all my funds in 1 bank?

Planning to apply for a medical DTV. I have made an appointment with a reputable hospital in Bangkok and I can get a letter from them.

My question is about continued medical treatment. What will I need to show while in Thailand and on future entries. Thank You!
