I know there are a few threads on this but has anyone had any luck opening a bank account in Bangkok on a DTV visa? I’ve tried every chain in different locations but no luck as yet. Have heard some places do accept it though. Thanks!

Hi, dear community,

Can anyone recommend a Muay Thai school in Koh Samui that is eligible to provide a letter for the DTV visa?

Thanks in advance!

For those who got their DTV in Asian countries and are from non-english speaking countries, did you have to translate your bank statement into English? I'm from France so my bank statement is in french.

Does anyone have any recent experience of extending tourist visa in Bangkok immigration I’m wondering if they are asking for proof on onward flight or bus?

Normally they don’t ask me but not done one since February.

Reason Iv not got me is because Iv not decided where I’m going next and want to decide closer the time.

I got approved my DTV as a remote worker from Stockholm after 9 days

I originally uploaded the requested documentation:

* Proof of current address

* Bank account showing current balance of > 500,000 baht and 3 months going back (but only > 500,000 in the current month)

* Employment contract - I appended the remote work permission to the employment contract pdf

They returned and asked for pay slip as well as "Employment Certificate". After some confusion about what this certificate was exactly, I chose simply to re-upload the remote work permission and that was accepted

Finally, they asked for an explanation of how my work could be carried out online and I wrote about 10 lines explaining how my work is carried out only online

I hope this is helpful

Hi

Many people here say that they do the TM30 themselves. Some posted that they use the TM30 online portal or TM30.io.

The TM30 form is for landlords.

A guest can do it probably when he show some documents from the landlord (copy of ID, Household registration book (Tabien Baan), letter of autorisation).

Filling out the form on your or landlord's name (autorisated by landlord's letter?

And how does it work online?

According the link below only landlords can register TM30 online.

[members only]

Can one of those who say they did the TM30 online explain how this is possible as a guest.

Do you register on your name as a giving authorization person?

Are landlords are willing to give guests an autorisation letter?

Thank you.

Hello everyone. I'm 71 years old and retired. I live on my social security income. Can I relocate to Thailand on this income only and have only 2k in the bank? Need advice.

Thank you

I applied my visa in Hanoi,Vietnam on 11 September, Wednesday. I didn’t get any email about require documents OR visa rejected OR visa approval. So, should I go there and ask what’s wrong? Because today is 17th already and I really want to go other places so badly . I just want to know the update 😩

Quick advise needed. My passport expired recently and I was issued a new one. My visa stamp is in the old passport. Would I be able to get in and out of Bangkok if I bring both my old and new passports or do I really have to go to Chaeng Wattana to have them transferred the visa chop to the new passport. I’m up for renewal in November so I’m hoping to save the trip…Any experience/ advise. Many thanks.

FYI - I hold a Singapore passport which means every passport is issued a new number.
