Can my family and I apply for the Thai DTV visa together or do we need to apply separately?

Where in Vietnam are you applying for the DTV? And once finished can you provide an insight on how long it took?

We are planning to go through the same route, we have also settled in first.

Correct, you need the main DTV holder to get approved first.

Heads up, while it doesn't say it explicitly, you are supposed to have the 500,000B available "per person". Lots of people have gotten by using the same 500k savings per applicant, but we decided to go another route because yanking more money out of my investments to "cover" 5 people just didn't sit right with us.

If you plan on using the visa extension, you have to prove funds again also. So better off doing a boarder run and getting a stamp in most cases. We just had a baby here in Jan and that's too much of a hoop for us atm lol.

You cannot apply all together because one of the requirements for a dependant DTV is uploading the issued DTV of the primary person. Until you have that you cannot apply for the dependant ones.

@Ashleigh *******

we are in identical situation. Currently in Vietnam now and applied for DTV on Saturday (my partner and I not married, so both applied individually) got an email this afternoon for more documentation.

1. They requested a “photo” (not a scan) of the student confirmation letter and payment invoice, both with wet signature and company stamp.

2. Explanation of how we will sustain our life in Thailand and as we are currently unemployed (quit our jobs and aiming to live off savings while in Thailand for a year)

Will keep you updated on progress, as we also need to apply for our 2 kids once we get approved 🤞🏼😂

You have to all apply individually. Generally one person applies for whatever reason then their spouse and kids apply after they are approved. Spouse must actually be married not just a partner
