Hey!!

Is anyone able to help me with these please?

I have applied from London embassy. I live and work in Spain in the summers. I sent my Spanish bank statements in English with enough money in?

Shout I write a cover letter for them and explain I live and work in Spain in the summers?

And upload that along with my Spanish statement again and also prove my English bank statement with my home address on?

I have also sent everything that the Muay Thai gym has sent me.

Any help or advice would be much appreciated thank you 🙏

I submitted my paperwork on October 13th, got documents requested on the 17th, and I’ve been waiting since. Is it worth visiting the Embassy in-person to get an update? They immediately hangup the phone if I try to call, and when I emailed them before, they said it would be processed by yesterday. I’m supposed to head out tonight, so I’m worried.

My application was approved, and I'm posting this as a reference for those applying through the embassy in Mexico City.

I decided to apply in my own country instead of going to a country in Southeast Asia because that way I avoid translations and misunderstandings in my documents, as well as unnecessary reviews.

Application started on October 20th

I will answer any specific questions that applicants at this embassy may have. Cheers

Hi guys,

I have an online business that grossed around €50k in revenue but most of that was put back into the business rather than paying myself apart from in dribs and drabs.

Do I need to be seen paying myself on a regular basis or will the business turnover be enough. Also, I have multiples of the B500k in my personal current/ savings accounts so hopefully that will appease them.

Thanks

Hello people Im applying under soft power

How long a course should be whats the minimum duration? Like 6 months ?

So if i take a 1 year course will it help my visa for whole 5 years or just that first year only ?

Muay thai or cooking class which is affordable ?

Recommend a school if possible

Im on a budget !!

Hi Guys, i will be applying DTV (Muay Thai) in Hanoi soon. For the bank statement submission, do you include all of the pages of a statement? Or just the page with ending balance?

P.S. For some months, my bank statement can be 5-7 pages long.

Working on my DTV visa app and wondering about the photo requirement- if the system accepts the photo, is it good to go and will be accepted? It flagged the first one I uploaded but the 2nd time around it seems fine... anyone?

I have just got a retirement visa until December 2026. I am just wondering how that affects my travel insurance, I currently have a yearly worldwide travel insurance bought travelling from uk . I just wondered if anyone had any issues continuing to use this type of insurance after getting a retirement visa. I suppose the insurance could say I am not travelling if I have visa, or do you think they known the complexities of travel in Thailand. I don’t stay any more than 6 months and I do go to other countries . I am going to get a psa test , not through insurance but the hospital needs to see my passport so it made me think if I ever had a medical emergency then would the hospital declare to the insurance company I am a retirement visa holder.

I know I will obviously have to check with insurers but just wondered if anyone had come across this , or am I overthinking it?

The other question is do Thai government inform your own country that you have been granted a retirement visa ? I’m just thinking the tax implications etc.

I know it’s probably questions I should have asked before getting visa lol before all the smart Alex and Annie’s start to roast me .

Thanks in advance for replies

Dear brains trust,

I have recently entered Thailand on an Non Imm multi-entry O-X visa. Bank account and drivers license all done, working on the yellow book currently. I would like to confirm the following:

1. When I travel out of the country for short business trips, I will not need a re-entry permit as my visa is a multi-entry visa....correct?

2. The usual 90 days in-county reporting applies?

3. I am required to report to immigration for a 1 year visa review (funds in account etc).

4. Bank balance required after the first year report to immigration?

Thank you for your time.

Kind regards, John
