I have a guarantee from my employer for 10K Euro. Do I then need only 4K more in my personal account to meet the requirements? (500k THB = 13.500 EUR)

Hello everyone! I'll be applying for DTV from Vientiane, Laos. The question I have for those who have successfully got their DTV from Laos. How many months bank statement do they ask? Is it 6 months or 3 months? And do they need you to maintain the required balance for the full period?

I have the required 500K THB bank balance in my personal bank account under my name, but this balance has only been maintained for the period of last 4 months. Will I have any issues with submitting my application due to this?

Thank you for replies.

Considering applying to DTV and wondering if folks feel like I should do it sooner rather than later; basically wondering if you feel the DTV rules will change to be more restrictive?

DTV - London evisa approved - workcation

Relatively easy with the right docs.

Provided:

Letter from employer addressed to the Thai Embassy in London saying I have permission to work in Thailand.

Scan of Drivers license (the card)for proof of address.

Bank statement showing about £13,000 - I asked my bank to send me a statement for just a few days so it did not contain any transactions.

Proof of visa payment

Extra document was requested about 24 hours after the initial application- contract of employment.

After submitting the requested document, the visa was approved on a Sunday 48 hours later.

Only slightly worrying part of the process was that when I first went to pay for the visa, the system sent me some weird error message and I couldn’t pay. To solve the issue , I just completed the forms again and on the 2nd attempt, the payment portal worked.

I am trying to come to Thailand from the USA in January with my Thai wife, my 20 year old daughter, and my American mother.

My mother is 82 years old and I am hearing it may be impossible to get health insurance for her. Is there a way around the requirement she have health insurance for the retirement visa.

Could we do a living with Thai family visa? Would that receive the requirement? Is there a good around through an agent?

Thanks for your help as I am concerned we may have to abandon the whole thing.

Morning. I'm supposed to do my 90 day check in today but came down with the good ol stomach flu. Is it OK if I'm a day late for it? Or should I not risk it?

"Hello everyone!

I'm reaching out for advice. I entered Thailand on a tourist visa, intending to find employment. However, my visa is expiring soon, and I'm still job-hunting.

Can anyone offer guidance on the best course of action to avoid overstaying?
