Hi! Quick question for those who contacted Hanoi’s thai embassy by email: did you receive an immediate automated response acknowledging reception of your message?

I have contacted other embassies before and I always received an auto reply right after to confirm reception.

That was not the case when I reached out to consular.han@mfa.go.th and thaiembassy.han@mfa.go.th a few days ago. Of course I’m not expecting a quick response to my inquiry, but I’m now wondering if they received my email at all.

Just curious to know your experience (and if you successfully communicate with them by email eventually?).

Thank you!

Hello guys I own a us llc and a UK LTD I want to apply for dtv visa how can I write myself an employment contract and is it important to get a salary? In the 6 years I own my business I never send myself a salary but just sometimes random amounts of dividends to myself could this be a problem? Is anyone here with a similar situation that got his dtv visa approved? Thank you in advance

Hello, I am looking to open a bank account on a DTV visa - can anyone recommend a good agent that's not charging something like 25k for their services? 🙏

Hello everyone! I'm planning to do a DTV visa ("soft power")

Please tell me a good Muya Thai gym or Cooking school in Pattaya that will provide all the necessary documents for a visa .

Thank you 🙏

Got to immigration for 9:30am this morning for 90 day report, and was given queue number 400+ and queue was at 63, I was looking at 3-4 hours wait.

Around 10:15 i saw an agent in there so he offered to do it for me for 200baht as he had only a few people in front of him. 20-30 mins later I was out and it was still queue number 90ish.

Hi everyone, trying to make a visa extension appointment for Chaengwattana under the "Extension visa for Teachers and Students in Public Educational Institutions" category. However, it shows all of May and June 2025 completely full; I cannot click on any individual day whatsoever. I find it hard to believe that they are fully booked, so thinking this is likely some kind of glitch? Or perhaps they closed the system over this past long weekend and have yet to reopen / reactivate it? Any insight Tod Daniels? Thanks

Do you have to report to immigration within 48 hrs of entering the country to report address?

I'll try to make this as succinct as possible:

* 15Mar: Arrived BKK on a Non-O, staying in a private residence, TM30 submitted

* 25Mar: Got the "official" TM30 from immigration, this allowed me to open bank account, deposited 800K THB that day.

* 30May: Planning visit to immigration to get 1 year extension for Non-O

* 12Jun: Current Non-O stamp in passport expires

Questions:

* What do I need to do to have a smooth experience with immigration on 30May?

* I know I have to go to my bank and get...something??? Official letter? Stamp in my passbook? Something else?

* Do I need to do ANYTHING else other than proof of funds? Refresh the TM30? Etc?

I assume I can initiate this as soon as the funds have "seasoned" i.e. 2 months in bank. I don't want to wait until the last minute and have my current visa expire due to issues with immigration.

Thanks...
