Hi, QQ can I apply medical treatment for my 8 yo braces or do I have to be the one receiving medical treatment as the applicant?

Answer summary

The original poster (OP) inquires whether they can apply for a medical treatment visa on behalf of their 8-year-old child who needs braces. Community responses confirm that a youth cannot apply directly for a visa; instead, a parent must apply for their own visa and then include the child as a dependent in the application process.

not judgment fact it says all this on the thai gov website

To many are lacking common sense or maybe even reading comprehension and this type ignorance is asked daily 🤷‍♂️

Just another fraudulent applicant who's going to help drive the rules on this visa up 😂

Go be her knight in shining armor in her dms🤷‍♂️😘

Read the DTV rules. It clearly states the main applicant needs to be over 18?20? years old. I can't remember the number, but it's written. I'm well over it 😂 so didn't care much.

A youth could not apply directly for the DTV, it would have to be a parent who applies for their own DTV scheme, and then they would apply on behalf of the child using dependant status and quoting the parents approved DTV visa number.
