If you take an internal flight within Thailand do you still need to fill in the TDAC when you arrive at your new destination, technically you have not left Thailand so you can't be arriving as you haven't actually left.

Update! My DTV was just approved in Phnom Penh!! Thank God, was so freaking worried with the tension going on. Was pending approval since June 9th. Anybody else waiting on Cambodia, this should be a little bit of relief for you knowing they're still approving these.

I recently attended a webinar that interviewed a senior immigration official, the discussion being around the changes to the tax residency rules and how this may be linked to Visa renewals. This immig official stated unequivocally that Retirement O visa renewals based on the 65k a month will be required to provide evidence that this money (remitted from overseas) has been declared for tax (or exemption due to DTA) in other words provide a tax return from Thai Tax office - they further stated that the 800k method is exempt - which is illogical if the 800k is remitted after Jan 1st this year. Not looking for opinions , anyone know what the facts are please share with the group - simply wishing this away especially for the 65k a month folks may no longer be an option. I am in the process of moving from the 800k to 65k a month in Oct so if not before, I will find out then I guess.

Hello, I really don't understand what happened, I got my visa "approved" few days ago, with a mail, my downloadable e-visa, and today I received a fake looking mail saying my application was rejected" with just link to click. I thought it was a scam, checked on the real website and the status of my visa is "reject visa application", what happened ? I fulfilled every criteria, told my family I was approved etc.

PS: I edited the post with screenshots. Don't mind the "fake looking e-mail" this is just my feelings because I'm really confused right now. The actual status on the official website is REJECTED

Applying for DTV with bank statement with 500k NOT for 3 months. Just transfered this month.

Reason being I keep my money in my homeloan offset account. And transfered 500k just for this.

I have way more than enough fund but the bank statement on the loan says I’m in negative…

Is this going to be an issue. What should I do?

Hi all. Without going to one’s home country, can I get retirement visa outside Thailand? Currently in Italy but heading to Thailand next month.

Can meet requirements for bank but everything on here says it’s almost impossible to open account. Have a lease also. Would I go to US embassy here or Thai to apply for non-O?

Just to complicate, I will have 3 kids who will attend school and adult son for whom I have guardianship.

Thanks for advice.

Hello Group. I’ve seen a variety of posts regarding the setting up of a bank account and depositing the 800,000 Baht required for retirement visa. But my question is this, if transferring funds via the Wise App. Should I exchange the amount into Baht first and then transfer or just transfer the foreign equivalent and let the bank calculate the exchange rate ?

Am just wondering what charges would apply for either or both options.

Thank You 😊

Hi there! I’m applying for the DTV under the digital nomad route, Jakarta and submitted a sponsor letter from my mum along with her bank statements (she’s covering my stay as the business is new). However, I just received a request to upload my personal bank statements too.

Has anyone else experienced this?

Does anyone know if a sponsor letter is not enough for the main applicant, even though it’s an option in the application portal?

Would really appreciate any insights, especially if you’ve applied recently or had a similar case. Thank you!
