May be a shot in the dark but does anyone have the info needed from Samut Prakan Immigration office to convert an exemption stamp to a non-o spousal 90 day visa? I understand all Immigration offices are different. So I would like the one specific to Samut Prakan.

Hi everyone, has anyone recently secured the DTV as a remote worker while in Vietnam? I’m from the U.S. but live in Bangkok and will leave for Vietnam next week to pursue the DTV. I have my offer letter stating that I’m a remote IT worker, my boss also wrote a letter to double down on that as well, I have $18k in savings that I’ve saved up the last 4 months or so. I also signed a lease on an apartment here in bangkok I plan to stay in Vietnam at least 2 weeks. Do you think it’s enough? I don’t have 6 months of statements amounting to $18k each month.

Hi.

A question about 90 day reporting, following on from a previous post. If on DTV and I stay 180 days and don't report after 90 days, are there any ramifications further down, when I leave and then return to Thailand?

I read somewhere about a fine.

(Sorry, anonymous because I get annoyed with the keyboard warriors who see every post as a stupid question!)

Any relevant answers appreciated.

Not sure how to ask this, but how safe are visa land border run's on those mini-vans?

I mean the vans itself and the drivers. Some friends have telling me to avoid them due to accidents, but i don't find that many in last few years.

From bangkok.

Is it better or does it matter to have a Thai condo lease prior to DTV application? Does it help the case? Kinda hard to get a 1 year lease when you dont know if youll get the dtv so 1 year lease on a tourist visa is a bit shady but, i would guess legal?

Any experience with this?

Thanks

Probably an obvious question to you guys but I couldn't find the answer in the search so here goes....helpful answers only please, if you can't be civil please don't post x

I want to get a dtv with cooking as my soft power however I can't find any longish courses. If the course is short can I still get a dtv?

Does anyone know a reputable cooking school that might be able to help?

Hi. Asking for an elderly relative. How many times can she renew a 1 month tourist visa? (She’s hoping indefinitely).

Hello there 😊.

I am flying back to Bangkok tomorrow. Do I need to show a return ticket if the airline asks for it? I already have my e-boarding pass, so I shouldn’t have to interact with them, but I just wanted to be sure.

Thanks!
