Hi there. I am new here and looking at DTV and wondered if anyone has signed up for Thai language courses under the Soft Power category and been approved. I was looking at courses taught in person at Chulalongkorn University. You can sign up and pay for several 6 week sections and they provide a letter.

Thank you.
Answer summary
The post inquires about experiences with signing up for Thai language courses under the Soft Power category for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) at Chulalongkorn University. The author seeks confirmation on the approval process for these courses, which offer several six-week sections and a certification letter upon completion. The comments discuss the legitimacy of the DTV, the application requirements, and offer advice on alternative visa options such as the retirement visa.

You're well over the minimum age for the retirement visa, which is age 50. Why not get that instead? The retirement visas are also way more established than the new DTV, so there's a bit more security with that
