Anyone had any issues with getting a DTV through the Japanese Embassy?

I know that we are here to discuss visa advice, however I would argue that the fees related to moving money make the various methods of money transfer viable or not viable.

I have one last post about Bangkok Bank because I was about to abandon the ฿65,000 monthly transfer because moving to Swift method more than quadrupled the fees making it untenable. On the advice of another member of the group I attempted a 65,000 baht deposit into my Bangkok bank account after it was unfrozen in October.  The deposit was accepted and using normal wise non-swift transfer the fees went back to the normal $16 a transfer as opposed to $80 via Swift. More importantly, the transfer is correctly noted as an international transfer. I am keeping my Bangkok bank account and will let you know my success in moving from the 800,000 baht method to the monthly transfer method when my visa renews this January.

"PLACE OF ISSUE"

I know this has been asked dozens of times and I read almost all the posts mentioning it, but the responses are very different.

My passport only has 2 fields that can be interpreted as "Place of Issue":

- "Issuing Country": "BRA"

- "Authority": "DPF/CAS/SP"

My country is "BRAZIL" / "BRASIL"

So what information should I put in "Place of Issue", I've already contacted the embassy and it was not very helpful.

so dtv is made for Digital nomad tourists, not for married or mothers/fathers of thai children? true?

Can I apply DTV in advance although I have no intention to travel Thailand yet?

Hi, I am intending to apply for the DTV (workcation - foreign talent) in order to write a book about music in Thailand. I have a real portfolio. Most of my spare money sits in my Australian retirement account, which, thanks to my age, I can now access like a slow bank. Do I need to move the THB500,000 into a regular bank account?

Hi!! What happens when the 6months training muaithay finisth and you got dvt visa?

Can i stay in the country for 5 years?

Could i decrease the amount of 500000bths during i live in thailand?

Thanks in advance.

I'm doing my first border run to Laos on Friday most likely to Nong Khai on DTV. Will I face any issue going right in and coming back? Do I need a hotel booking?

Can anyone recommend a border run agency that operates strictly at that border? I won't need a ride to the border I just wanted help when I get there. I understand it may not be necessary but it would give me peace of mind.
