Piece of information for Brits. It is actually about State Pensions. Yesterday I got a text message from DWP saying that they had processed my Life Certificate. In the past we just sent these by post across however many oceans and hoped it all worked out. Never heard a thing from DWP except in the sense of our pension continuing. That was pretty daft and clearly they've had to address the matter. Think the clue might lie in the last sentence of the message saying so no need to call them! Watch out for this new messaging when you send a Life Certificate back to UK. Note that I received the message at about the 6 week point from sending.

My DTV has been approved for Muay Thai, and I'll be flying to Thailand soon. As far as I know, I have 180 days, followed by the option to extend for another 180 days. After 360 days, will I need to resubmit all the paperwork to enter the country, or can I do a border run to restart the 180-day period?

In which situations are they asking for the full scans of your passport? Is it better to attach this to the original application upfront to prevent unnecessary delay?

Hi everyone!

I have applied for the DTV visa workation from London & received this message today "(- Your recent (balance within last 30 days ) personal UK/Ireland bank statement shows your name, your UK/Ireland address, and a minimum closing balance of 11,000 GBP . Document has to be in full details please. )"

I already provided them a bank statement showing more than 11000 GBP as total balance, the 30 days date, my name & full address. I did hide my total outgoings and total deposits as well as all transactions throughout the month.

What details do you think I should add when reuploading the statement? Thank you in advance!

:)

I’m from the UK looking to apply for the DTV this year. Can anyone advise how much you need to be earning as a remote worker/freelancer to succeed with the application please? Thanks in advance!

How soon before travel should I apply for DTV???

Just got issued my DTV!

Question. It appears it's a pdf and has a QR code for scanning. Do I need a printed copy when I arrive to immigration? Or can they just scan it from my phone?

Vientienne has a new online (only?) System since the beginning of this year. Anybody had any experience with this? Average process time and time The 500k Baht have to be on the account

I'm looking for a soft power dtv.

> If I was approved DTV. Am I right in thinking. That these visas have a life span of 5 years. As well as other criteria in obtaining the DTV. Is that I must have 500,000thb in my bank account at the time of application. I am assuming this 5 year life span begins at the first time entering Thailand. And that every 90 days I must leave the country then reenter to start another 90 days . After the first 90 days. in fact there is no need to leave the country, As it can be extended at a immigration centre. What paper work will immigration want to see. And will they want to see 500,000tbh still sitting in my bank account?

Hello everyone, does anyone know how I can prove my location to the embassy if I enter Bali using an e-visa and go through the automated immigration gate without a passport entry stamp, while applying for a DTV in Jakarta? Or would a visa on arrival be a better option?

Thank you very much！
