Does anyone know if it’s possible to get your partner/girlfriend added to your DTV? And if it’s possible, what is the process please.

Bit of background, I have an Australian passport with workation DTD, my partner, she is Vietnamese.

Any info or direction, would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Paul

TLDR : Answer Summary
The consensus is that only married partners can be added to a Digital Tourist Visa (DTV) in Thailand. If you are not married, your partner will need to apply for her own DTV separately. Some users suggest that she consider applying for a Soft Power DTV, such as a cooking course, as an alternative pathway.

She can apply on the soft power pathway.

You and your "partner" are neither related nor considered each other's next of kin. Not possible.

Not possible if not married. She can apply separately.

As above. Married partners only. Get her a Soft Power DTV such as Cooking Course

Not unless you are married. If you are she would apply for her own DTV quoting your DTV and supplying proof of relationship (marriage certificate)

I think Non Marriage partners are not accepted for the DTV.
