How do you open a Thai bank account to deposit the 800k before getting the visa? Or do you get the visa first then deposit the money, do I need an agent ?

Has anyone applied for and received a DTV as a creative (ie, artist, writer, artisan, musician, etc)? I'm actually attempting to spend extended time in Thailand to pursue a career change from healthcare but I don't have any particularly recent projects to show and my resume would just reflect my healthcare background and education for which I do not have a remote job lined up.

I have published a children's book in the past. I do have my own registered LLC as just my name in my home state.

I could *create* a position as I did work remotely before. I plan to apply at the hcmc consulate if that helps.

Just probably a silly question, but I'm travelling to Bangkok next week for 10 days holiday. Travelling on Aussie passport. Do I require an E visa before arrival or can I just get visa on arrival? Thank you.

Has anyone ever had their one year extension approved prior to the end of the 30 day under consideration period?

I am renting in lower Sukhumvit, seeking “Extension of Visa”. Is there a satellite Immigration office nearby? If not, where is the closest Thai Immigration Office to be found? Thanks for helping steer me.

Hello everyone

Please don't roast me 🥹

My flight is scheduled for 24th December but I applied for my single entry visa to Thailand on 13th Dec(Friday) and made the visa fee payment successfully. My application has been on processing pending document check(1) since then.

I am feeling nervous about it 😓

Hi everyone,

I’m from the UK but currently in Bangkok, Thailand, and I’m looking to apply for the 5-year DTV visa. I understand that I need to leave the country to complete the application. Could anyone recommend the best nearby country where I can get my application approved in the shortest amount of time?

Additionally, do I need to physically visit a Thai embassy to complete the application, or is there an option to apply online? I already have all the required documentation, including proof of 500,000 THB in funds.

Thanks in advance for your advice in advance!

Hello, I recently joined this community and am considering the DTV for my move next year. I am still unclear about the financial aspects. Do I need to have $15,000 in savings or earn $2,000 per month from a job, or are both required for approval of the DTV?
