Hi, I have just received my non immigration O visa and I will be applying for a marriage visa, I know the process for this.

I'm booking my flight and it will obviously be 1 way, could this create a problem at UK check in,as I don't have a return ticket?

Thanks in advance.

I've been in Thailand for many years with an Extension based on retirement of an original Non-Immigrant O visa. I also have a ME Reentry Permit. I just returned to Thailand with a new soft power DTV. The IO wanted to admit me under the old extension but I explained that I wanted to enter under the new DTV so that my wife could apply for a spousal DTV. After a few minutes and a short discussion with another IO, he stamped me in for 6 months. The entry stamp says "DTV" hand written on it.

My question is -- am I required to go to Immigration to cancel the extension of the original Non-O visa? Or can I just let it expire on its own? I do plan on leaving and re-entering Thailand at least one more time before the extension expires. I'd like to avoid the half day at Immigration if possible.

I submitted my application at the Ho Chi Minh Embassy in Vietnam, but I only had 14 days visa there - my documents still haven’t been processed, so I had to go to Kuala Lumpur—Im here now. Can I reapply here even though my previous application is still pending?

Can anyone share how long did it take to get DTV visa as workation (freelancer) in HCMC? It takes quite longer than I thought...

Applied on August 11th at 2:00am

Turned out to be pending approval on August 13th

Still so far nothing has changed.

I already know that August 11th and 12th were Thai national holidays and they don't work on weekends, but still almost 7 business days have been passed while on HCMC official consulate website says general processing time is 4~6 days. Trying to be patient but the fact that I even needed to cancel my flight ticket that supposed to leave two days ago just makes me frustrated..

I’ve just been searching advice at an agent here in Thailand. She told me there is no need to add/apply kids under 14 yo on/for DTV (as dependents) Any thoughts on that ..?

Tip. If you go to Indonesia dont go through the E gate, use normal immigration channel. E gate dont stamp your passport and you need the stamp for your application.

Hello everyone 🙂

Do we really need to leave Thailand after 6 months with DTV or there are other solutions to get another 6 months?

Thank you very much!!

Is health insurance necessary to buy if I have a DTV visa already.

As I saw chat GPT is saying it’s compulsory otherwise in the next entry they can deny entry … Please suggest if other people are also having health insurance with DTV

I need to get a certificate of residency at immigration (Bangkok). Renew DL. My situation is a bit unique. I never do the 90 days report because I always exit the country before 90 days. What documents does immigration require for the certificate of residency? I searched the group posts and saw conflicting information about the requirement of previous 90day report done.
