anyone know if it’s possible to apply while outside of thailand but get approved while you’re in thailand? do they stamp your passport at the airport if you arrive with the DTV? if you get approved after landing i wonder if you have to leave after X days and return with the stamped passport

If my remote work visa is rejected, can I apply for a course the next day? Has anyone done this?

Hi group :) Regarding DTV Soft-Activities Embassy Vienna: I hope there are people here who have applied for the DTV via eVisa from Austria through the Vienna Embassy and can help me. This embassy seems to be very strict. Muay Thai courses are only accepted from 4 months (less than 4 months are rejected), no seminars are accepted that serve to get to know Thai culture (but other embassies have approved them). Can anyone recommend a reliable and inexpensive Muay Thai boxing school or a cooking course in Chon Buri that has been approved? In other districts too, if they are cheaper. I just thought that it wouldn't hurt to actually go to Thai boxing (😄) every now and then :) Thank you very much for your help :)

I have a Thai girlfriend, known for 3 years, travelled back and forward to see her. She has spent 3 mths in Australia on tourist Visa last year. I am now looking at a Partner Visa so she can live with me in Australia. What is your advice on whether to get her to apply from Thailand or I do all the paper work from here. I used a Thai Visa Agent to get Tourist Visa to make sure I made no mistakes. Any constructive advice would be appreciated.

Could anyone provide information about how to process a tourist visa for Thailand? Specifically:

1. Where in the Philippines can we apply for it?

2. Is it possible to apply online?

I am a Filipina, and my German boyfriend and I are currently living together in the Philippines. We want to know if it is possible to extend our stay in Thailand for up to 6 months after we arrive there.

Should we process the visa and the extension here in the Philippines, or can it be done after arriving in Thailand?

We would greatly appreciate clear and detailed answers to our questions. Thank you for your help!
