Has anyone in Australia applied for a workaction DTV recently and supplied their girlfriend's address as where they will be staying? Any problems encountered with this or additional questions asked (e.g. need copy of house book, ID card etc)?

I am going to get her to right a short letter of invite, but not sure if it needs to be handwritten and hand signed (as opposed to signed digitally which does not prove it came from her) , or whether it is better to be in Thai or English?

TIA.

Hi all,

What would happen if you are in Thailand with your DTV Visa as a remote worker and have stayed in the country for a couple months but you get laid off? Will this affect your DTV Visa?

Hi πŸ‘‹πŸΌ I have a question

What information should I enter in point 3? I normally live in Thailand. I understand that I should enter the same information as current in VN that I entered earlier, is that correct?

Thanks a lot πŸ™

Hello everyone,

I am puzzled, so I would be grateful if anyone can help.

I am a Czech citizen, but I work in Germany. I plan to apply for DTV of course, but I am currently in Vietnam, then I go to Bali and then we would like to stay in Thailand.

At which embassy in this case should I apply? Does it matter which country you are arriving in Thailand from (For example I would be coming from Bali) or does it have to be Vietnam, if I am in Vietnam now?

Or alternatively, should I just apply at the German embassy?

Thank you!

Hi all, those already on a DTV - have you had any issues traveling within Thailand? Say, you are based in Chiang Mai and want to visit Phuket for a week. Is this problematic in any way?

I saw some info on a website that said DTV holders might experience issues traveling to other provinces (away from where they are based) for short trips. It seemed counterintuitive to me, but I want to check if this has been problematic for anyone.

Also, has anyone experienced issues having short trips to nearby countries (Laos, Indonesia, etc.)? Or do just get stamped for 180 days when you arrive back to Thailand (no questions asked about why you travelled)? Thanks so much 😊

Hello everyone,

I’ve read that it’s difficult to open a bank account with a DTV Visa.

I have a DTV and want to open a bank account in Chiang Mai.

I have a residence certificate.

What can I do?
