Hey guys I’ve started the only application on the official Thai E-Visa for the DTV freelance visa. It’s asking for milk “INTENDED DATE OF ARRIVAL” and “MY INTENDED DATE OF DEPARTURE” issue with attended date of arrival is I’m applying from Spain n from the search ppl have had a 1 approval reply after their application and others it’s taken up to 5”6 weeks,

So I don’t know what to say re my date of arrival and Flight number ……

Secondly “INTENDED DATE OF DEPARTURE” the visa is 5 years do I say 5 years for my departure date? 🙏 what did you all do for this part?

How does the 65000 baht per month work? Can I withdraw it right away? I am talking about the 2nd extension. Tia

Trying to get a feel for the Bangkok Bank issue. Has anyone, not having the banking app on their phone, had their account frozen?

Anyone purchased a condo as an uk expat?

Looking at the DTV Visa for me and my family and property renting or buying in Thailand? Weighing up the pros/cons to both renting/buying.

We won't be able to work in Thailand on that visa, our income will be from renting our property out in the uk.

EDIT....THANKYOU SO MUCH for all your comments it means alot.

Were so ready to leave the uk but just want to do it as best as we can for us and our children.

Keep your eyes peeled for more questions from me soon 😊

Can someone tell me if the 180 stay is from January to January or 365 days from the day you enter? I was there November to January 21st then came back in March for 60 days, did a border run and was the for 136 days this year. Thanks for your help.

And again - Bangkok bank problems. A freind of mine who now lives in the uk has had his Bangkok bank account frozen. He opened it circa twenty years ago when he used to do business in Thailand - but now only visits as a tourist. He now wants to just close the account and take the money in it out. However has been told as it’s frozen he can not close it! Question is what can he do?

Hello,

I opened a fixed account with Kasikornbank. What's the question about the months?

It has something to do with the interest, I've heard that.

If I pay my 800,000 for the Visa into a fixed account for 12 months, can I not access it during those 12 months?

The bank employee just said "yes" to every question, regardless of whether I asked "can I or can't I."

I wanted a fixed account, and I didn't want the money to be withdrawn by some criminals via the app. I've heard too much about that with today's technology.

Thank you very much.

My 90 Day Reporting is due on Monday 13th but I fly out to Malaysia on Wednesday 15th. Do I still need to do it? Would I get fined on my return? TIA

If I wanted to spend 6 months a year in USA and 6 months in Thailand, what are my visa options?

Thanks all!

Regarding health insurance requirement for a retirement visa. Can I use my Medicare (USA) and supplement insurance.

I understand the insurance is not allowed to be used in Thailand but I could return if needed.

Secondly, can I self insure? If so how much do I need show?
