How can I apply for a dependent visa for Thailand from a nearby country?
Hi everyone! I’d like some advice about applying for a dependent visa from countries near Thailand.
My partner has a DTV visa, which he applied for from our home country and got approved. Now we would like to apply for me as a dependent. I’m currently in Thailand, and instead of going back to my home country, I’m considering applying from a nearby country like Vietnam, Indonesia, or Malaysia, as it would be more affordable.
Has anyone here applied as a dependent from a different country than the main applicant? Or do you know any similar cases? I’d really appreciate if you could share your experience, whether it went smoothly, and which documents were required for the dependent application.

You say partner, unless you are legally married you can't apply as a dependant as you have to show your marriage certificate as part of the application process

Your passport, a picture not older than 6 months and answer these questions.
Yep I took me lot of time and effort to open the website, so be patient and do not book a return flight for the next day.

A copy of their DTV. Your marriage certificate, your bank account showing 500,000 baht and the application fee
