I

informed that I could apply for a non-O (marriage visa) Visa in Thailand, having spoken to immigration they informed me that I can’t get an O Visa unless I have a bank account. So I went to the bank and the bank said. I can’t get a bank account as I don’t have a long-term Visa. What is this all about?  is there a way of sorting this out in Thailand or do I need to go back to the UK and sort it?

Hi there,

I just applied today for my DTV visa. I am an offshore worker from UK. I live in Phuket Thailand but have been using the tourist visa with no problems for the past few years. After returning to Phuket from work last time I was told I cannot keep using the free visa.

I submitted today all my information, 6 months of payslips, bank account savings in showing over the required amount. My work gave me a letter to confirm I am a remote worker but put my passport I was using up until earlier this year. I still have the passport but I am concerned that they may reject based on that it is not the same as the passport I submitted. I have applied to the Thai embassy in South Africa.

Does anyone have any insight on my situation or anyway I can send an updated document to the embassy now that it is submitted?

Many thanks

Im currently applying from Vietnam the DTV. I can only upload one document for each section. What would you recommend as a freelancer to upload: CV, portfolio, contract with customer or references? Or should i make one PDF in put all my contracts, bills, documents together in one PDF and upload? Please help me :D ☺🤓🙆

Has anyone applied under the medical and wellness section of soft power ? I have heart & prostate issues and have already been treated in Bangkok so seems a good fit.

Thanks in advance

Hi all, I need to find someone in Chiang Mai to certify some Australian documents so I can open an Australian bank account.

Chatgpt gave me the following options. Unfortunately the Chiang Mai Australian embassy is closed. Anyone know of someone who can do this for me?

If you are in Thailand and need to have documents certified for use in Australia, you typically need to find someone who is recognized under Australian law to perform this task. In many cases, documents certified overseas may require specific types of certifiers, such as:

Australian Consulate or Embassy Staff: Staff members at the Australian Embassy or Consulate can certify documents. They are familiar with Australian requirements and are often the most straightforward option when abroad.

Notary Public: A notary public in Thailand may be able to certify documents, but you should check with Macquarie Bank to ensure they accept foreign notaries.

Australian Registered Professionals Abroad: If there is an Australian lawyer, accountant, or other professional recognized by Australian bodies residing or working in Thailand, they may be able to certify documents.

Justice of the Peace (JP): If you can find a JP who is available and recognized, they might also be able to perform this task.
