I am currently living in Thailand on a non-immigrant O spouse visa. I plan on applying for a DTV 6-months before the end of my current non-immigrant O as this is the only time I will be in another country for long enough for the application process. A few questions:

1) I see on the document list I need a 'Document Indicating Current Location.' Does that mean Thailand or UK?

2) Assuming it means the UK, what kind of document would that be e.g. a bank statement with my parent's UK address on?

3) Am I correct in thinking I can't start the application process before I leave Thailand?

4) Do I need to do something to cancel my non-immigrant visa or will it auto cancel when I get my new DTV?

My agent has requested that I obtain a Thai phone number to obtain my LTR Visa stamp at the BOI. I am hoping for an inexpensive way to obtain a Thai number, as my current U.S. service will remain my primary phone plan. Google has provided many options, but most require relativeley expensive plans. Can anyone please recommend a service or app for an inexpensive Thai phone number (or one that had a reasonably priced plan)? Thank you for the helpful information in advance!!!

Hi all I'm a bit confused at how I open a Thai bank account before applying for my retirement visa? Have I read that wrong? Do you go over on holiday and open one but I read somewhere you can't open it unless you have a visa?

Also is it advisable to use an agency to do everything for you?

Hi guys,

Can anyone please advise regarding getting the marriage spouse visa.

I’m just getting my marriage certificate done with my wife this Friday.

The immigration officer from Chaengwattana has asked me to :

1. Firstly, extend my tourist visa (expiring on Sept. 30th) and then later

2. Get an extension for ‘visiting spouse visa’ so I can later apply for the marriage visa (non-o)

A bit confused and wondering if anyone went through something similar?

Thanks in advance 🙏

We have just been checking the immigration website for registering a friends property for TM30.

Yet it seems it is for business (which I assume is hotels)

I was looking for a section which required the blue book number of the house owner as well as her ID card.

Has anyone also looked into this?

We will be staying at my wife’s friends house and although I will complete the DTAC arrival card stating I will be staying there, she would have to complete the TM30 still?

Hi

As I apply for a retirement visa I understand that the cost of the health insurance the Thai embassy want is very high. Something between 60000 Bhat to 80000 Bhat yearly.

Is that so?

Do you have maybe other options?

Thank for your advice

Planing to apply for non-o 90 day visa at Los Angeles region. I have not made my flight plans yet.

Does the application ask for flight info and anyone have experience with them asking for proof of reservations. Thanks

Good Morning! I am planning to leave to Thailand next year June and was wondering if anyone had information that they could give me in regards to the DTV Visa and the requirements if I’m filing from the U.S? Thank you.

My Non-O seems stuck in "Processing pending document check (1)". It's been 7 days since payment at Washington D.C. Am I expecting too much speed?
