I have a retirement Visa that expires in April 2026. The quotes that I’ve had from the UK Internet search using the likes of compare the market for long-term health insurance are over £1800 (72k baht) for a single trip annual policy.

I will be coming out in late October for approximately six months and wondered if there were any local insurance companies who might be cheaper.

I am 68 and have no long-term health issues and would appreciate if anyone has any contacts so I could message/email them to get some local quotes.

I have a TR multi entry visa that is good through July 2025 (Given by U.S. embassy as a consolation prize instead of the DTV I paid for).

Is this a firm expiration date, or does it renew for six months each time I enter Thailand? I have read that some other types of visa can work this way. Thanks

Hello

I'm interested in applying DTV to get 180 days stay permit in Thailand. i have checked all the requirements and i have no problem with them except the professional portfolio requirement. Had anyone experienced this before you start a digital nomad life but you need the portfolio now to enter Thailand?

Hi all,

Apologies if this has already been answered but I couldn't find it.

I'm 51 and moving to Thailand in January with my wife who is under 50.

Both would qualify for the DTV visa but I can obviously qualify for the 'Retirement' visa.

Can anyone point me in the direction of a site/ document etc which compares these visas and or offers alternatives if there are any.

Thanks in advance for the information.

Hello,

I applied for the DTV in Cambodia on June 9th.

Since then, I haven’t received any updates.

I’m curious to hear about others’ experiences or if anyone else is in a similar situation.

Thank you!

I have just returned from the US and glad, no - overjoyed to be back in the Kingdom. Do I have to report to Thai Immigration? It keeps changing>

Hey everyone! Has anyone had their Bangkok Bank account frozen because of a long-term DTV visa? Are there any alternatives?

Kinda feels like discrimination!)
