# Thanks for the invite! I am 60 years old and recently retired. My wife is only 46. We are citizens of the US. We are thinking of Chiang Rai because of the air quality and smaller size of the city. We are trying to figure out the best way to obtain the visa. For myself it looks like the O-A visa for one year is our best option (though renewing every year seems like a hassle). The O-X for five years seems nice, but we hate to lock-in a good chunk of money in a bank account just sitting there unused. We do have investments at Fidelity that has partnered with the Krungthai Bank, but even if we tied our accounts to that bank, not sure if it counts as a "fixed" deposit even if my pension went into the account (the Thai Bank would still have a fairly low balance). Now concerning my wife, I heard there is an "O" visa that attaches to mine "O-A" visa? I am not sure how this works. Is it still for a year? What is needed on her end? I truly appreciate any help that you can give! Thank you.

I am a 1099 independent contractor as a sales agent for one company in the US. It doesn't say anywhere on the contract explicitly that I am a remote worker, but I am 100% remote and never even met any coworker or anyone from the company in person. Is my contract enough or should I get another official letter from the company explicitly stating that I am an independent contractor? I'm likely going to apply from Hanoi. Thanks!

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had experience with the soft DTV from London / UK??

how many monthly statements did you need to provide for the 500k thb, and does the soft dtv also have the same income requirements as the full remote worker dtv?

I was considering an Ed visa for muay thai but this seems a much better option with multi-entry..

Is the starting date of the DTV visa the day the visa is issued or the proposed date/flight date that the candidate used in the application?

Hello,

Since this morning (~10 am to now 5:30pm) the official website "thaievisa" seems to be very buggy and don't work. It's very slows and it crashes a lot with this message "The team is fixing and updating the system.". So it's almost impossible to submit a demand.

I've got my demand rejected the first time due to a mistake i've made, but now i am in a big hurry because my flight is coming nearer and i want to do a new application asap because the Paris Thai Embassy can take up to 4 weeks before checking the documents.

Am I the only one that can't access the website correctly?

I did a Bank Wire Transfer from the USA (Wells Fargo) to my friends Thailand bank account on November 8. It says arrival by November 20, & still has not arrived. I can’t understand why this transaction doesn’t take seconds, or even 1-2 days. Any ideas?
