Planning to retire next year. My plans are to live in Thailand but travel 3 or 4 times a year struggling to decide on most suitable visa. I would love your suggestions to help me decide.

Hi, I’m currently travelling around Thailand. Did my first couple of weeks in Phuket, then Koh Samui and now I’m bangkok. I got here on the 28th of October and I’m not looking to go home anytime soon but I have no clue what to do about visas or where to go!🥲 Can someone help me please would really appreciate some advice.

Thank you :)

I got approved with soft power route in Hong Kong consulate after a bunch of documents.

I provided:

-Gym confirmation (need 6 months of membership)

-Documents that indicated my current location(bank statement)

-6 months of bank statement for the 500000 money( you can provide 3 months in Hong Kong too)

Additional that the HK Consulate ask for:

-Valid HK stay permit (Landing Slip/Working Visa) + HKID( no need landing slip and visa if you a HKID holder)

- Muay Thai Courses that are eligible to apply for DTV Visa must (1) be a Muay Thai Course certified by the Thailand Board of Boxing Sport (2) be held by the similarly certified Muay Thai gym (I only provided Board of Boxing Sports from Ministry of Turism and Sports)

- the applicant must demonstrate detailed portfolio of Muay Thai past experience for no less than 6 months (I gave a kind of CV for them tell what did I do, my old gym agreement and some photo of me that I captured from IG video)

-School registration and ID of authorized person's signature

By the way, please congrats me, I'm hype now

Hi! Looking to get the DTV visa in Laos at the royal thai embassy this month. Heard it’s the last month for walk ins, and then starting January just wait list online.

Anyone know a credible company and agency to help me, that can make this happen.

Please message me directly and let me know. Would be super helpful.

Is it necessary to "check-in" online at immigration every 3 months with the DTV visa of 180 days? Thanks for your help.

Hi there!

I would like to know from people own experiences, how long takes approximately in Cambodia to get the DTV, and how many months the 500 K needs to be in bank before apply? Thanks

Question:

UK citizen here, full-time employee wanting DTV1 Workcation visa to work for 1 month. What specific documentation is needed for the "Foreign Employment Contract", I've heard that they sometimes ask for follow up documents showing "permission to work remotely for X period of time". I'm a full-time remote employee but my contract doesn't specifically say so, will I be ok?

I don't want to pay the £300 visa fee only to find I don't have the right conditions.

---

Further Context:

My company will allow me to work 1 month at a time abroad provided I have work-permission. They also won't provide any extra documentation/ proof for the 1 month abroad. So I can't get a nice fancy document that helps me get the visa.

So, if I can't get the visa with what I've got, Thailand is off the cards and I'll have to go somewhere else for that 1 month. But my family (partner + toddler) and I would really like Thailand.

I haven't managed to get in touch with the London Thai Embassy (3 emails & 10+ phone calls) so I'm hoping you will be able to help.

Thanks!!! 🙏

If you applied with children dependents, what document did you provide for "Document indicating current location"? On my application, I used my Driver's license for that question because it had my address. My kids don't get mail and their IDs don't have their address on them.

My Journey to Taipei, Tawain To Apply For The DTV Visa For My Family #dtv #digitalnomad #visa #thailand #borderrun

Has anyone been asked for Request of Additional documents during the pending approval stage? I feel like I messed up by missing to attach something. Called embassy here they said it’s out of their hands as it’s send forward for more checking before approval so I’m wondering can they request extra docs or will they likely just reject if there is something missing this late in?

Doc requested was business registration which I sent the companies house registration number rather than the actual document even though I have the document and only thought of this after. Rookie mistake I know
