Hi, I have most of my documents ready for submission, however need some guidance on the statement balance, it is more than 500K however my last bank statement was issued on the 13th and I am still awaiting confirmation from the gym for my course will this be accepted at the London office ? Or how else should I be going about this ? I am a bit worried! Thanks

I went to an appt with an Endocrinologist in BKK to refill my meds, the Dr recommended testing every 3 months. I asked the hospital if they can write a letter for visa support and this was their reply:

"Greetings from Samitivej Sukhumvit Hospital.

Regrettably, we do not have service to provide letter for visa application.

We could only provide you medical certificate and you may contact Embassy for more information and further assistance."

Is this normal? Is the medical certificate enough? Should I try another hospital?

Can we apply for 90 days retirement visa just day arrival to Thailand

Hi! I just joined this group. I just wanted to say, it is odd to join a group for giving advice/sharing experiences if you find people seeking advice/sharing information "stupid" or "inept." I've refrained from asking questions because the aggression in some of the responses is unhinged and unnecessary. Hope this helps 🫶

I got my DTV approved this month. I am wondering do I have to maintain 500K baht (equivalent) in the bank throughout the 5 years?

I used to hold retirement visa. When come to renewing the visa, I need to present bank statement for the entire year.

Hi! If you are apply for DTV with spouse visa, can you use a joint bank account for proof of 500,000bht?

I think I understand it correctly that we need 500,000bht each? If so, could we submit with 1M bht in one joint account?

Thanks!

Hello,

Could anybody tell me how long can you stay in Thailand per year using a visa on arrival just coming and going every 60 days?

I heard it’s 6 months per calendar year and was hoping someone knows the answer.

Thanks

DTV Vietnam

Hi all,

I would like to apply to the DTV from Hanoi embassy as it seems easier but I would like stay in HCMC while waiting for the process.

Is it possible ? Would they ask proof of accommodation in Hanoi or they don’t mind ?

Thank you.

I applied for a DTV workation through my own company in Delhi, India, 3 weeks ago. Today, I received an email from the embassy saying that my visa has been approved. However, the details show a single-entry visa valid from February to May, without specifying the reason. Has anyone else faced this issue, and what did you do about it?

I'm a digital nomad that has been traveling on tourist visas and surviving on less than THB 500k for the last few months. At the end of this month, I will receive a "top-up" that puts me over the 500k requirement for the DTV.

Am I not eligible for DTV until I have 3+ months of bank statements showing that amount in my account?

I read some posts in this group where people mention writing a cover letter of sorts to explain your situation. Perhaps that could improve my chances.

Maybe sponsorship is the better approach. I will be applying at the embassy in Hanoi.

Any advice is much appreciated.
