Hi everyone, this group has always given good information in the past,

I'm wondering what's the best way to approach my visa renewal:

One-year student visa (university) which expires early January, I'm due for a 90-day report around December 16 anyway

I plan on going on vacation within Thailand from December 18th until a few days after my visa expires (and I assume the guesthouse will

When I come back to Bangkok, I plan on moving to a different apartment.

My plan was to try and get a rental contract in December for January, and go to immigration December 16 to extend my visa and do the report at the same time

However I'm not sure if that works since I won't be in the tm07 system for my new apartment yet and will be registered somewhere else for two and a half weeks after.

Is there a better option? Go to the immigration office where I will be spending my semester break, despite not living there?

Thank you.

Hi does Air Asia still have a bus that goes from Pattaya central festival to Utapo Airport

Thank you

How can I get an appointment for DtV from Jakarta Embassy? It seems like they don't have that option in their website. Do I just walk in?

Not a freelancer; I work for an international company

Flew to DMK same day - no issues at immigration

Maybe a unique case - I was travelling Thailand, Laos, Malaysia and Vietnam in the 6 months prior to application. I got my job as I was leaving Thailand to go to Borneo

Applied 21/11, submitted:

- Passport photo

- 6 months of bank statements + brief cover letter

- I only had the ฿500,000 in my account a week prior to application (I have no idea who lets that amount of money sit in their account rather than somewhere useful).

- Flight itinerary, hotel booking and Vietnam visa stamp as proof of location

- Compnay contract and certificate of employment detailing that I can work globally

Request for extra documents 26/11:

- Photos of every single passport page (sent as pdf, included the front and back cover too)

- Clear photo of Vietnam visa (sent)

- 6 months of bank statements, again (sent)

- 6 months of salary slips (I sent a cover letter instead explaining that I didn’t have any yet as I was a new hire. My contract has the date stated the weird American way (MM/DD/YYYY) so I cleared that up). I attached my contract and certificate of employment again).

Granted afternoon of 29/11/24

Ask any questions. I used this page as a resource, I’m happy to help

Curious - once the evisa page changes from "pending document check" to "pending approval", does that generally mean that they will NOT require any further documentation? Or, is it possible they may still ask for more documents? Anybody have any experience with this?

Now that I have my DTV and my banking setup finalized, I’m starting to seriously explore the real estate market.

I’m considering purchasing a condo as my forever home, but I’ve come across mixed opinions regarding condos and their ability to hold value over time.

Is the concern primarily due to the sheer volume of condos being built, leading to a saturated market? Or is it more about factors like the location, quality of construction, and upgraded finishes that influence a condo’s value over the next 10-15 years?

I’d love to hear your insights and any advice you might have on navigating this decision.

Good news. DTV holders can use the Fast-Track departure lines to skip the queues. According to the counter staff at BKK Suvarnabhumi airport this morning, a DTV is considered as a "Long Stay" visa and will be allowed through. Anyone tried using a DTV at Fast-Track lane at arrivals?

Just wanted to ask if anyone knows about the current rules for Indian citizens travelling as tourists to thailand for less than 60 days? Is it visa free? Or visa on arrival? Or e-visa? Tia

Has anyone used getitinerary.com to provide a flight number and hotel booking for the DTV application? Is it okay to do so? (I want to apply for the visa now to see if I can get it, as this will affect my plans in some ways... but I haven't booked a flight yet... and not 100% sure of precisely when I can go -- a few things still to settle...)
