@Lee-Ann ******
it's apparent from recent reports of those who have tried to get the DTV visa for medical care is finding it MORE difficult with ADDED supportive documents FROM the doctor and hospitals. Glad you got yours when you did 🤗

I'm waiting for mine with no medical plan at all, just invitation letters, because we're going to see doctors there as our first step. Since now I just joined this group, maybe what I did was too ballsy.

Good luck 🍀... please update us when you have the decision from the Thai Embassy or Consulate where you applied for the DTV visa for medical reasons.

Yes, I have it. I was approved with a very vague 2 year treatment plan. Basically one surgery with follow ups every 6 months for 2 years.

Yes, but make sure you've a proper long-term treatment plan signed by a reputed doctor/hospital. A bunch of random dentists appointments aren't doing the job anymore.

One of the more complex ways to go with big risk of rejection, and thereby losing the 10.000+ baht visafee.

@Rory ********
may I ask what kind of treatment. To get a picture of what's required to get a DTV? Number of treatment? Over how long time?Rory *********
@Kristian ********
I have dental and I have a three plan because implants take timeAnonymous ******************
@Kristian ********
It can be any kind of medical treatment, dental work and cosmedic treatment too. As for how long the plan has to be seems to vary between consulates, mine is 2 years but it’s only once every 6 months.Reply to
