A mate of mine in his 70's is applying in Ireland for his retirement visa.

Is there any Thai Insurance policies he could use as the Irish one are really expensive.

Thanks

So I arrived Cambodian on the 13th, applied for DTV on 14th online. On the 15th, I got an email requested for Financial evidence: an amount of no less than 500,000 THB ( please upload statement clearly)

In the application I've attached my Thai bank statement with 500,000 ballance, which I got from SCB and it was all in thai. I've also included my paypal account and other documents in the pdf which I've submit for the proof of Finance. Do you think I should just submit the same bank statement only , or do you think I should translate the thai bank statement to English and send both version. I'm not sure if it's not clear because I've attached other documents along with the bank statement in the proof of finance section last time or if I only have the thai version and not the English version. Thank you, guys. really appreciate any opinion.

My husband and I meet the requirements for a DTV visa, I see that is can be a bit difficult to fill in the information correctly as they don’t refund the application fee if incorrect. Any reputable agencies that do it for you, or and advice in general when going about it?

Hi all, I'm currently in Bangkok on my first week on a Non O Visa from the UK. I need to transfer the 800,000 Baht, so that I can apply for the 1 year extension. I have setup a bank account at Krungsri Bank in Bangkok Phrom Phong. Can I send the 800K Baht using Wise ? I know that maximum that can be transferred is 500K each time, so I would need to do 2 x transfers.

Will the Immigration office be ok with a transfer from Wise for the 1 year extension ? I could use Barclays Swift payment, but would be much more expensive.

thanks!

I am currently living in the UK and looking to move to Thailand in the next few months. I'm going to apply for a DTV visa but just wanted some advice. I'm a landlord in the UK, I have owned the property for over approx 15 years and have rented it out for 6 years. I have all my tax returns, deeds for the property, proof of rental agreement, proof of sufficient funds in the bank and proof of monthly rental payments. Would this be appropriate/ sufficient for a 'freelance' DTV visa? Any advice would be much appreciated!

Yesterday I was asked for a scan of all pages of my passport. I took a black and white scan with my phone and scanning app, which I then compressed online to get under 3MB.

Today I was asked for the 'original' scan of all pages of my passport.

Has anyone else had this? Is it likely to be because the file included the word 'compressed' or because it was black and white rather than greyscale?
