Hi Guys

I am wondering if anyone else is in the same boat as me and could provide some information.

I have my DTV and we are now trying to apply for my wife’s DTV. I noticed that my DTV is issued to my new passport number as I had just renewed my passport because my old one was full, however my marriage documents are all on my old passport number so the passport number on my DTV and the passport number on my marriage documents do not match. Should this be a problem when applying for my wife’s DTV or could I just supply copies of both my passports and explain the situation? Has anyone else had a similar situation to mine? I know it probably depends on the embassy as well. We are planning to apply either in Vientiane or HCMC.

Thought I'd post this while waiting on my DTV in Hanoi. If your going to apply from a Thai embassy outside of your home I would advise that you book your stay as a holiday not as a 3-4 day anxious waiting experience that basically ramps up anxiety and keeps you rebooking accommodation. Also, on a personal note, if you want a peaceful quiet experience while waiting, don't stay in the old quarter, it's crazy !

I am coming to Thailand in December for the first time. Do I only need a passport? What about visas? I am 57 years old and I do not know how long I’m going to stay. I will be meeting a friend that I met on the Internet she is 54 and we have been talking for about two years. A long time I’m just trying to figure out this whole thing.

First, I need to figure out the visa thing. And of course, the passport about how long these processes last and what I am needing to take care of to be legal.

Can someone help me understand. The visa says “work prohibited” but what about when you apply as a remote worker as someone who works online. Obviously you can’t get a new job or start up a business there but are you still allowed to work in Thailand for your UK company? I’m just trying to make it make sense.

Hello, can someone recommend a lawyer in Thailand who can consult me on the following question:

I am approved as webdesigner with my german webdesign business, creating mainly websites for German customers. For who can I create websites while I am in Thailand? Only for businesses outside of Thailand? Can I create a website for a thai company or thai friend? Can I create websites for other digital nomads I meet in Thailand?

Thanks

The Thai consulate in Kolkata lists proof of residence as a requirement for applying for tourist visa. Does anyone know if this is a strict requirement and what would qualify? For Burmese passport holder.

Good morning to the community,

I have a question regarding the monthly 65000 baths transfer from abroad for retirement 1 year extension.

On thai admin website I read that it should come from pension. Is it correct and if yes how can I prove that these 65000 baths originate from my pension ?

Thks in advance

Have a nice day
