Hello everyone My visa results….Your visa application has been cancelled. As the applicant are working full-time at the governmental organisation, neither the freelancer nor remote worker, the applicant could not apply for this type of visa.

I am working at government as an engineer and ı trade in crypto and turkish stocks also.ı added everything about crypto accounts also .if ı get this dtv visa ı will quit job and only trade stocks…but they don’t accept what can ı do now ?

Thailand has reinstated the requirement for tourist visa applicants to provide proof of financial resources, effective May 2025. This has now at least been implemented by the Royal Thai embassy Berlin and the 2 Thai consulates in Germany. Maybe other embassies will follow, I don't know. I wish to avoid any speculations.

It has already been installed in the e-visa online system of some Thai embassies, and others might follow soon.

This old

requirement was lifted in November 2023 to facilitate entry for international travelers.

Applicants for a 60-days single entry or multi entry tourist visa must now provide proof of at least 20,000 THB equivalent to their local currency, usually through recent bank statements or a letter of sponsorship.

This proof must be uploaded into the e-visa application.

Hi.

Is the DTAC only for 30 days entry.

I’m guessing I can extend at immigration office.

Any one experienced this yet. Thank you ☀️

Hi Guys new here so be gentle, I am planning to retire to Thailand in a year or two I have a conviction for drink driving will this hinder my attempt to obtain a retirement visa. I'm 62 and married to a Thai girl for 26 years and have 2 grown up children. All other requirements are fine.

If I arrive in Thailand without visa can visa agency help me with the retirement visa or must I have a tourist visa when I arrive

Has anyone had success changing their employment details (e.g., if a change of job has occurred) for the same application?

Hi, I meet the age and financial requirements for Non-O and DTV. As I plan to do some remote work I think the DTV is better for me. I've not started the remote work yet so I will be applying for the DTV by going the soft power route and taking a cooking course as I love Thai food and cooking! I read a post somewhere that the Embassy required them to show a profile. I do not have this and wondered if anyone has recently successfully applied from London Embassy without needing to show prior proof of professional cooking skills? Also can you swap between the soft power options? Eg start with cooking, later have some medical appointments when returning to Thailand?

I submitted my DTV under Workcation on 30th April and still “Pending Approval”. As of now, the status still shows “Pending Approval.” Meanwhile, my friends, who applied on the same date, already received their Visa approvals on May 10th. I am beginning to wonder if there might be an issue or delay specific to my application that I may have overlooked. I would greatly appreciate any insights from others who may have experienced a similar situation, or any advice on what steps I could take next.

Hey everyone, I have a UK passport, I work for a UK company, pay tax in UK, am registered to live and vote in the same address in UK as my bank account is registered at (one of my parent's house). Should I apply at the UK embassy? I am based variously around SE Asia. Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam usually. Is it better to apply in my home country or in the country I'm actually in? . Please just be Kreng jai and Jai yen in your answers 🙏🏻 Khob khun krap

DTV granted in Jakarta.

I arrived on May 8th, submitted the request the same night. Soft power, cooking school.

Unaware of the long weekend (9th, 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th!!!), used the time to visit every museum and park in the city.

Friday 16th came a request from the Consulate to update information about the cooking school (Company registration, school license); the school sent me the info immediately, I uploaded it the same Friday. So far, only 3 working days.

Today, Sunday, I got the email with my approved DTV visa for 5 years. Feeling happy :)
