But haven’t seen any posts yet saying Vietnam embassy had called them in?

Just wondering when I should book the onward flight for

Hi, I would appreciate recommendations on a Muay Thai institute in Phuket, from people who have successfully issued a DTV visa through them😎

Q for Muay Thai/soft power applicants:

- Can you provide a list of the documents your gym gave you to assist with your application?

- does the gym need specific accreditation?

I am already a member at a gym, but they haven’t done DTV. I don’t want to train at another gym for 6 months so I want to see if I can get my gym to provide me with the necessary paperwork. It is a big, reputable gym in a major city with a foreign owner.

Whithout a Thai bank account how can we pay the water and electricity bills online? It always rejects me because it has to be a Thai issued card.

Bank deposit requirement for retirement visa:

* 800k two months before applying

* 800k three months after obtaining the visa

* No less than 400k for the rest of the year.

This is my understanding, but I am worried that the rule has changed for this year (to keep 800K the whole year).

I can't go to the immigration office to confirm for the next few days.

I am in Chiang Mai.

Can someone please confirm if the rule has changed?

(P.S: I still feel the pain from the last time I messed with this rule)

Just went through the UI to buy a ticket with e dreams, declined all of the bullshit add-ons and the very last page (already did all my traveler info etc) was to sign up as a prime customer or ADD 13 bucks (to a 70 dollar ticket) to continue as a non member. So instead e dreams can fuck off and I'll give my money to ANYONE else. The people who give people like this money need to stop getting invited to parties.

If you have a sponsor, like your father or boyfriend, for a tourist trip to Thailand, do you still need to provide your own bank statement as a Filipino?

To those who are knowledgeable about trips to Thailand:

May I ask what the process is for a Filipino tourist traveling to Thailand?

Can I board a plane to Thailand even if I don’t have a tourist visa yet?

Is it true that upon arrival in Thailand, a Filipino is granted 60 days of stay, or does a Filipino tourist need to go to the embassy in Manila to get a visa before being allowed to board the plane?

Your help and answers are highly appreciated, especially from those who have experience traveling to Thailand as a Filipino tourist. Thank you!

I am in Thailand on a 90 day non-O (retirement) e-visa, which expires a month from now. Is it possible to extend it for another 90 days at the (Chiang Mai) immigration office, or will I need to leave the country and apply for another non-O e-visa from outside the country? Thanks.
