Hi guys, I’m planning to apply for the DTV, but I’m a bit confused about the definition of “remote worker” in this context. My company allows hybrid working, which means I’m expected to show up at the office from time to time, but also allowed to work from home (including from outside the country).

I am able to get a letter from them that indicates that I am allowed to work from another country. Would this qualify as remote worker? Or does it only apply to people who are fully remote?

I succesfully obtained my DTV Visa in Jakarta using Tiger Eye Muay Thai and MMA gym for my soft power application. They were very helpful with providing all the necessary documents needed and open with answering questions!

I applied sunday night, Monday it went to status pending approval and Wednesday it was approved without a request for additional documents. (3 business days processing)

I provided 6 months of tx history even if I read that people got accepted with 1 month history and I put 600K THB equivalant (EUR) on my bank instead of 500K just to be sure. (The majority of the money was transfered to my main account a couple of days to a week before applying because I didn't have it on 1 account)

Important concerns I had before applying:

* Can you have a job outside of thailand while applying with softpower - Answer is yes. I work remotely (not that the TH gov knows) and they approved my application. I chose this route to save myself hassle.

* Can I prefill my application while in thailand and submit it once abroad - Yes.

* Do I need to show the proof of finances on the day of submission - No, I printed the pdf of my statements 2-3 days before submission but the closer towards submission date the better I'd say.

* I used [members only] to translate my bank statements to english. Way better than google translate!

Good luck if you're still applying!

When submitting with a sponsor, in addition to a sponsorship letter and bank statements is anything else required? Should I include a copy of their passport or ID?

Hi guys, so i applied using my business account for my statement because I move very little out of it to remain tax efficient. I have now been asked to show my personal account - if i just dump the money from my business into personal account as a lump sum, would that be acceptable to show the closing balance is above what they asked?

Good morning.

To obtain the non-immigrant O retirement visa annual extension using the sum of the bank deposit and pension income, is required a sort of income certificate, but it's not clear to me, I need to find precise and reliable information on which documentation must be shown to demonstrate the requirements (again: the sum of the pension income and financial deposit that reaches a total of 800,000 baht).

In addition to the obvious bank statement, I don't exactly understand what must be shown regarding the pension income and where, a possible document, can be requested.

Thanks for the help, it will be precious as usual. 🙏

is the re-entry permit for calendar year or through end of current visa?

Has anyone experienced this issue with a Thai visa?

I just received my DTV visa, but there is a mistake in the "Passport / TD" section—it shows the wrong country.

Does anyone know if it's possible to correct this after the visa has been issued, or would I need to apply for a new visa?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

UPDATE: They let me in! The immigration officer didn’t even look at the paper I brought with me (eVisa).

Hi, QQ can I apply medical treatment for my 8 yo braces or do I have to be the one receiving medical treatment as the applicant?

Spouse financial evidence - is it ok if I put my bank account (same papers i used for my DTV approval) for my wife and child in the financial evidence or do I need to put something else?

I am here in Thailand on Visa exempt. I cannot get a bank account as tourist, but I cannot get Non-O Immigrant Visa without a bank account! I meet qualifications for Retirement Visa. I have a lease through early July In Karon Beach Phuket.

Is there any way I can get the Non-O without returning to USA?
