When the DTV is approved, do they use the date of application or the actual approval date?

Applying for DTV from neighbouring Thai countries,

What is the

fastest/least problematic country in sea I should apply from?

Has anyone recently gone through the DTV visa process in Vientiane and can share how long it took to get called for the interview and receive the visa?

Any recent experiences, timelines, or tips would be super helpful!

If anyone has direct contacts at the embassy, I’d be incredibly grateful.

Thanks in advance! 🙏

At DPS airport bali now . Questioned at boarding counter, took photo of my dtv on phone.

Is there an online site and list to download the documents needed to renew my Retirement Non O Visa? Also what document shows the expiration date and how many days before it expires to renew the visa?

Hi, need to get a Certificate of Residency, just wondering what documents are currently required for this.

Will be using the Jomtien office

Hi guys,

I requested documents from Canberra, and since I have two jobs, I was provided with both contracts and a letter stating that I’m allowed to work remotely from anywhere.

However, the Thai Embassy asked for the following, and I’m a bit confused:

1) I already provided the company number in the letter, but they seem to be asking for something more official, such as a Companies House Certificate of Incorporation or a Companies House Company Profile.

Has anyone experienced this, or can you clarify what exactly they are expecting?

2) They also seem to want another letter confirming that I’m allowed to work remotely while staying in Thailand.

My previous letter included my salary and highlight work from anywhere remotely — for this new letter, is it necessary to include salary again, or is it enough to simply confirm that remote work from Thailand is permitted?

Any advice from those who have applied would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I just entered through Suvarnabhumi airport, longer queues for sure. I use visa exempt every month but never had any extensions and max stayed 4 to 12 days each time, and return back to my country. I had zero questions asked and was let through. This was my 12th Visa exempt this year. Never even asked for my return ticket, hotel or how much cash i had. Just biometric, photo and stamp the passport. Since there are many questions around this subject.

Hello,

I hold an Italian passport. I work remotely (self employed).

I want to become a TAX resident in Thailand. What's the easiest / fastest way to go about this.
