Can anyone give advice on the DTV visa, when applying for culinary courses. Does have to be with an approved school or college? Does the course have to be for a certain length of time? Sorry I’m applying at The Thai Embassy London

Does anybody have any information regarding whether you can apply for the DTV visa (soft work: yoga course) and switch to remote working further on down the line & once the course has finished?

Hello guys! Looking for advice.

Military veteran here receiving monthly compensation income permanently whether I’m working or not. I’m only 28 so I’m not at the retirement age. I do not have a remote job. Currently living and working in Japan.

Is there any way I can obtain a visa and use military compensation as my income?

Someone just told me it’s not possible to do the dtv application at the embassy in Jakarta, it needs to be done online. I cannot find anything about this. Does anyone know?🙏✨

Received my DTV today! I applied on the 22nd and collected my passport today. As a self-employed digital nomad, I provided a bank statement showing $150,000 USD, a stock portfolio worth $50,000 USD, my monthly Google AdSense income of around $3,000/ month and payment slips from the past six months. I was called in for an interview on the 25th, but by that time, the visa sticker was already issued.. Thailand Here I Come ☺🤣

Anyone applying from Phnom Penh recently? I’ve applied since 21st, and it’s still pending. I’m getting anxious and running out of places to go visit 🤣

Just want to know if anyone else is on the same boat.

I currently have a work permit and business visa for the last year and 1/2 through a company I recently sold my shares in. The remaining owners of the company plan to close the company soon. But I am not sure of the timetable.

I am aware that if a company doesn’t cancel someone’s work permit and then I leave Thailand without a re-entry permit which effectively cancels my non-b visa. It can flag up on the system and then they will receive a fine.

What is the process to ensure they don’t get this fine when I leave to get a DTV in about 2 weeks. Do they simply need to inform the labour department to cancel my work permit? I want to try and inform them of the process to make it as easy for them to complete. As they are a small company with limited knowledge about these matters.

Thank you. 😊
