Hi guys,

Is it mandatory to show the monthly income, or is it enough to just show the 500k as a bank statement?

i would apply in vietnam embassy!!!

I work for the family company, I don't have a salary o income from this job now, I have other income from other business!!

Following all the posts in this group, I have seen some who are not interested or able to register as nomad digital workers to apply for this visa.

Remember there are other alternatives listed as Thai Soft Power Activities

So if you do not work online but want to apply, you can still qualify for the Thailand DTV Visa if you plan to engage in “Thai Soft Power” activities. These include:

Muay Thai courses

Thai cooking courses

Sports training

Medical treatment

Seminars

Music festivals

I have now made contact with a school for this cookery course in the north eastern province of Khon Kaen. Been there with my friend Wanida Somruecha for a meeting and tour of the facilities. This gives a different environment to engaging in this course in a city like Bangkok for instance. It is a small family run business on the outskirts of the city, but easy access to shopping malls, night markets etc. They also offer a mixed dormitory bed included in the price or help find accommodate nearby for 600 baht per night.

Classes are for a max of 5 students so you get the upmost attention to gain that extra knowledge too.

Will they require a certain fix salary on employment letter for dtv application under remote worker ?

Is there a full list of everything we must submit when applying for a DTV Visa? I will go to Jakarta and apply in person nxt week. I will bring

* Passport copy

* Muay Thai gym receipt

* Muay Thai gym’s company registration + the owner’s passport + work permit

* Three months of my bank statements

* Two photo copies of my face

* Cash for the visa application fee (IDR 5,600,000)

* Proof of stay (Jakarta hotel booking)

Do I need anything else?

Also a big thank you to the admins and members, this group has been amazingly helpful.

I have obtained a DTV visa. It took me three and a half days in Vietnam. The documents are very simple, just as described in the promotional page. Everyone can apply for it. You can DIY it. Don't trust the agents. It's not worth giving them money. Believe me, you can apply for it yourself.

Sawdee ka, does anyone got the following experience:

1. apply for the DTV at home

2. than come to Thailand with a 60 days „Visa“ on arrival.

3. Than got the DTV via E-Mail

4. Make a visa run to Myanmar in Ranong and got the DTV stamp at re-entry?

or

5. just got the stamp for the DTV at Immigration office in Ranong (like a visa extention, instead of going abroad)

Thank you very much in advanced

Khop khun ka🙏

Hi everyone, I’m applying DTV as a content creator in Phnom Penh and I applied on 5th Nov.

I have sent them requested documents and have no got a reply yet. In your experience, how long do they usually take and is it also possible that they reject or take longer time even though they don’t send you any emails?

Can anyone share any info on the easiest way to get to Cambodia from Pattaya? Online travel sites aren't showing any direct flights?

Hello group, want to ask, if I’m unemployed, but want to attending muay thai course, is it possible to apply DTV? thank you🙏

I found two great videos on the DTV.

One is an interview with a Deputy General of Consular Affairs clearing up a lot of common questions people have about the DTV. The interview starts around the 3:23 mark. [members only]

The second is from Siam Legal about the Soft Power Activities option. [members only]

Some key information from the first video is that:

*You cannot apply for the DTV while in Thailand.

* After 180 days you can apply for an extension of another 180 days without doing a border run and leaving the country or having to provide proof that you are still eligible under whatever terms you applied (digital nomad or Soft Power Activities: medical appointments, conferences/seminars/festivals, Muay Thai training, Thai Yoga Massage training, Thai cooking lessons, etc.). There is no cost for this extension!

*After 360 consecutive days in residence however, you would have to leave Thailand. In the video they mentioned as short as a week, but gave no minimum (It could be less?) but you do not have to go far or outside the region). This would have a fee.

*You still have to check in every 90 days with this visa.

*After leaving the country you could then return for another 180+180 days as long as it’s still within the 5 year window, but you would then need to provide new documentation of either continued remote work, soft power activities or another medical appointment. I am not sure if this has a fee.

*Every time you leave and return to Thailand (within the five year window) the 180 day clock restarts after which you could apply for another 180 day extension. (I don’t believe it was specifically said, but I think you would have to resubmit documentation of either remote work, soft power activities or medical appointments at this time as well.) I am not sure if this has a fee.

*As of the making of that video, there is no minimum amount of time you have to engage in soft power activities to be eligible. I took that to mean you could schedule as little as a few days of soft power activities but as people have noted here your acceptance may depend on the official who is reviewing your application.

Hope this helps someone the way it helped me! Let me know if anything is different from how I described based on the videos or personal experience!
