ORIGINAL POSTER
Hello,

I would like to apply for a 5-year DTV visa for medical treatment. Could you please advise whether there are any hospitals in Pattaya that are authorized to provide the required medical treatment and issue the corresponding certificate? Additionally, I would appreciate information regarding the estimated cost.

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a 5-year DTV visa in Thailand for medical treatment, it is important to note that hospitals in Pattaya are not officially authorized to issue a medical certificate. Instead, you need to obtain a treatment plan from the hospital, which you will then submit as part of your DTV visa application. The acceptance of this plan is subject to the embassy's discretion. Additionally, it is suggested to search for services that connect patients with hospitals or clinics that can provide the necessary medical care.

Search for a website for DTV medical. I saw a company online which will put you in touch with hospitals or clinics that offer the treatment you require.

There is no hospital that is or is not authorized to provide medical treatment and issue a certificate. There is no certificate.

You need them to provide you with a treatment plan, and you submit that for DTV. It's up to the embassy if they accept it or not. There's no authorization for any hospital to qualify for DTV.
