My girlfriend (dominican) IS thinking about getting her braces done in Thailand, would this be sufficient medical treatment to get a DTV, in that case what would I have to tell the dental clinic, any recommendations in Phuket (Rawai)

Lastly anyone has tried to do sponsorship DTV in Phnom Pehn and succeded? I plan on sponsoring her, I am spanish and already have DTV status in Jakarta
Answer summary
The post seeks advice on whether getting braces in Thailand would qualify as adequate medical treatment for a DTV visa. The user inquires about the necessary steps to communicate with dental clinics and specifically asks for recommendations in Rawai, Phuket. Additionally, the user wants to know about the possibility of sponsoring their girlfriend for this visa, given their own DTV status obtained in Jakarta. Comments highlight that sponsorship may not be feasible without a marriage certificate, and that obtaining a DTV visa based on medical treatment is possible with just a hospital appointment.

You can't sponsor her as a dependant as a marriage certificate is required for proof of relationship. She will need to apply for her own dtv

All you need to get medical DTV is a single hospital appointment…….A simple google told me Smile Dental in Bangkok can assist with DTV. Mine is based on hospital treatment

also concludes. No official publications with figures needed, just read here and see how many plan to use DTV in an incorrect way.

but are they still staying with that visa even with your disapproval? Yes? Then your disapproval ain't got legal consequences. Which means, no matter.

When you look here how many applicants think they can keep legally using a visa even when they do not comply with the requirements anymore, that should be enough proof...

Yes there is nothing fraudulent about genuine applications but unfortunately softpower especially has been exploited for fraud,

nothing fraudulent about medical DTV, if you receive actual treatment 🤷🏻‍♂️

Getting an appointment for treatment and then canceling would be fraudulent. I received my DTV based on Initial hospital consultation. But I have monthly appointments and ongoing treatment. And can get controlled by immigration

Many are not like that anymore due to Softpower being the bulk of fraudulent applications in SE Asia.

I’m pretty sure you can only sponsor a legal spouse or your children ..No ?

Not sure if sponsoring a girlfriend will be an easy route.
