Can you apply for a DTV under soft power for music instrument studies at a non- degree school in Thailand? If so how long should the course/class/lessons be listed as (8 months, 1 year etc)? Or strictly music festivals? Thank you in advance.

Some advise please on the new visa requirements.

I plan on staying in Thailand for 3 to 6 months then returning to the UK for 1 month then flying out to again for another 3 to 6 months, could this be done on a Tourist Visa or would i need a 1 year single / multiple entry Visa

Any advice would be welcome

Is this information correct to or is it just with Bangkok Bank? I was going to arrive on 7th December on tourist visa, exchange for 90 Day Non-O Visa, open bank account and apply for retirement visa. Is this not now possible?

I am a good candidate returning to thailand after 5 days from Vietnam to be caught up in this crackdown on visa exemptions and the 7 day exit stamp.

I tried to get TV in nam but my phone conflicted on payment page and thus failed..

Anyway, I heard on here of agents fast tracking people through immigration for a fee of 4000 bhat, question, how are they contacted and how are they on that side of immigration.

Please save the get the correct visa, changes aimed at me etc, I should have done it in UK but didn't, however earlier in year I got caught up in the banking fiasco, bought property, obtained drivers licences, but couldn't get bank account nor then visa.....cheers

Hello group,

looking for an agent referral to get my RETIREMENT VISA

I’m 66, with USA passport

I have the income qualification

with the recent Visa changes happening, I think it’s time for me to just get it done once and for all.

But speaking of that, for this coming trip… I’m planning to arrive December 3.

I’ve read the changes but it is still confusing

I think I could stay a total of 90 days… But that will include two 30 day extension. My plan was to be in Thailand about 40 days, go to Vietnam for a month or so, and then return to Thailand for 50 days.

Earlier this calendar year, from January to April, I was in Thailand for about 70 days total (interrupted by two 12 day trips to Vietnam) Does that have any bearing on my status?

Any helpful insight would be appreciated

Thank you in advance
