Dear all,

1) Would anyone who have a pink ID card can reply if both your thai name and English name can be shown together in the PINK ID card.

2) Anyone who can successful add both English and Thai names in the bank book?

3) Is there anyone who can successfully sold his/her condo? If yes, you receive money by cheque which wrote in your English name or Thai name. As a heard a case that the one who sold her condo, then buyer issued cheque in her Thai name same as title deed shown. However, she was unable to bank-in/credit this cheque as her bank account only shows English name.

Thank you.

I’ve got no possibility of applying for the DTV from my home country (the Netherlands) since I am already in Malaysia. Has anyone experienced trouble applying for the visa in another country other than their own?

SUPER LAST-MINUTE SUCCESS STORY !!!

I’ve been checking the Hanoi and Ho-Chi-Minh embassy websites every hour for the last three days for an online appointment, but everything was fully booked. Yesterday at 2:00 a.m., an appointment spontaneously became available in Hanoi for the same day at 9:40 a.m. I booked the embassy appointment, the flight, the hotel, printed all documents —everything—within 3 hours. Five hours after booking, I was already sitting on the plane to Vietnam. I landed at the airport at 8:30 a.m. and took a taxi straight to the Thai embassy, arriving around 9:50 a.m. Luckily they didn’t mind the 10 minutes delay.

I submitted my documents yesterday (Wednesday) and by this evening, I had already received an email confirming my visa. Tomorrow (Friday), I can pick it up and fly back to Thailand.

My passport is from Western Europe, and I took the Medical Treatment Route.

I’ll make an overview of the total costs.

Costs:

1. DTV Visa 340 USD ~ 11000 baht

2. Flight BKK to Hanoi = 3660 baht

3. Hotel in Hanoi for 2 days = 2000 baht

4. Flight Hanoi to BKK = 1500 Baht

5. Mobile Internet for Vietnam = 430 baht

6. Grab Taxi from my home to Don Mueang airport = 380 baht

7. taxi hanoi airport to Thai Embassy = 800 baht

8. passport photo (70000 VND) 92 baht

9. photocopy (5000vnd) 6.69 baht

Total = ~19.808 Baht

Hi, the question is about taxes incoming from DTV visa.

If a DTV holder stays in Thailand for more than 180 days per year he is subject to taxes.

Questions:

1) What are the taxes in % and where/whom should I pay that? How to make it official?

2) If I leave before 180 days and come back again in 1 month will I still need to pay taxes or the period will reset back to zero days of standing?

3) What if I receive salary in Crypto?

Thanks!

Once upon a time, I did the right thing by studying Thai for a year before signing up for the Elite visa. It was a tortuous 3 hours a day, five times a week. After completion, I was happy to give them 400k baht. Sadly, I was denied and ridiculed for having a student visa. Later on, I realized that it was just pure greed. They are willing to accept my application at the new price of 900k. There is a happy ending to my story. I just received my DTV for 10k. Muahahahahahahahaha

Hey folks, looking for some guidance from anyone who has applied and received the DTV from London Embassy. They look for a contract of employment showcasing remote worker. Is it as simple as inserting into a contract " The employee is required to work remotely at an address of their choosing" or is there a wording format needed? TIA.
