Hi, I got rejected today in HCMC, which I read everyone on the group and pretty much understand that no one know the reasons. But Can anyone tell me when I can reapply again?

And also if you have any suggestions please let me know.

Ps. I submitted documents as they asked for

Hello community!

I plan to apply for DTV (remote worker) in July/August in Indonesia. The question is, can I go to Bali and apply at Jakarta embassy or I have to be specifically in Jakarta to do that?

Regarding 90 day report, as per my understanding, you have to do in-person,afterwards,can do online but if I exit Thailand and return,then do I need to do in-person again or can continue doing online?

Thank you

Hey there everyone! 🙋 ♂️

I am currently looking for a German employer who allows to work remotely from Thailand permanently or at least for a longer period of time. Maybe there are some people here with experience or concrete tips?

So far, in my research, I have only found companies that offer remote work, but restrict that to Germany or maximum the EU. Especially in terms of tax and legal aspects, this seems to be an exclusion criteria for many companies.

Therefore, my question to you: Do you know employers in Germany (or maybe even specific industries or forms of companies) that allow work from Thailand, whether it is official or at least unofficially with tolerance?

I am happy for any feedback, experience or exchange. Thank you in advance! 🙏😊

Hi everyone! 🙋 ♂️

I’m currently looking for a German employer who allows long-term or even permanent remote work from Thailand. I was wondering if anyone here has experience with this or knows of companies that are open to it?

So far, I’ve mostly come across employers that offer remote work but only within Germany or, at best, within the EU. It seems that legal and tax-related concerns make many companies hesitant to allow remote work from outside the EU.

That’s why I’d love to hear from anyone who knows of German companies or even specific industries or job types where working remotely from Thailand is officially permitted (or at least tolerated in practice).

Any tips, insights, or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much in advance! 🙏😊

Hallo zusammen! 🙋‍♂️

Ich bin aktuell auf der Suche nach einem deutschen Arbeitgeber, der es erlaubt, dauerhaft oder zumindest für längere Zeit remote aus Thailand zu arbeiten. Vielleicht gibt es hier ja ein paar Leute mit Erfahrungen oder konkreten Tipps?

Bisher habe ich bei meiner Recherche leider nur Unternehmen gefunden, die zwar Remote Work anbieten, das aber auf Deutschland oder maximal die EU beschränken. Gerade in Bezug auf steuerliche und rechtliche Aspekte scheint das für viele Firmen ein Ausschlusskriterium zu sein.

Deshalb meine Frage an euch: Kennt ihr Arbeitgeber in Deutschland (oder vielleicht sogar konkrete Branchen oder Unternehmensformen), die das Arbeiten aus Thailand ermöglichen sei es offiziell oder zumindest inoffiziell mit Duldung?

Ich freue mich über jeden Hinweis, Erfahrungsbericht oder Austausch dazu. Vielen Dank im Voraus! 🙏😊

Hi 👋 If I use an agent in Thailand to help me with the immigration process. I am in the United States and plan to apply with a U.S. Thai Embassy.

Is it common to pay the agent all of the money up front and they pay the fees for example: the online application fee, soft power activity fee to the school etc? Or should I pay the fee for soft power business directly and get a letter from them. Then use the agent to help with the online application process.

Has anyone have any experience with using a agent to help them with their DTV?

Thanks!

Hello !

Can I ask you the experts a question about the financial statement for a Non-OX immigration visa that my wife and I are applying?

When I called the Thai immigration office, we were told that as long as I have 3 miillion THB in my bank account, my wife as my dependent does not need to have another 3 million THB in her bank account.

Now for the application, I have my financial statement ready, but does she also need to submit another copy of the same financial statement?
