What are the requirements and process for obtaining a medical visa in Thailand for dental work?

Do yourself a big favor, scroll and read the last 2 weeks of post in the group, to get a grip about DTV.

Frank Beque I try to find a doctor for dental work for the same purpose... get a DTV...

Can you give me the name and adress of your doctor in thailand?

You can't just start a medical visa because your tourist visa is about to expire. If you are unfit to travel its possible to get an extension on medical grounds but that doesn't seem to work with your scenario. Maybe best to detail what your actually hoping to achieve and folk might be able to better advise you

First of all, are you talking about an actual medical visa, or are you talking about the DTV visa and using medical appointments for the soft power classification?

If you are talking about medical visa, I don't really know anything about that, as it's not a common visa to use at all. I believe it's only issued for 90 days and you won't be able to get an extension in Thailand as they only do medical extensions for people who cannot physically leave Thailand.

You CANNOT apply for a visa from a Thai embassy in Thailand. You must be inside of the country where the embassy is that you are applying. One of the required fields on the visa application is proof of your current location, like your entry stamp in your passport. Some people are also called to the embassy for an interview, and some are also asked for additional proof of where they are a few days later to make sure they have not left the country. If you are not able to do any of these things if asked, your application will be cancelled without refund. The embassy is not immigration, you will not be dealing with immigration and no immigration officer will contact you.

Bank statement from anywhere should be fine as long as it meets their requirements. The fact that you can have the work done elsewhere is irrelevant. They want you to go to Thailand to have it done, that's the point.

If anything is missing from your application, the embassy will usually e-mail you and ask for additional documents or whatever it is they need to complete your application. If you make a mistake on your passport number or name it will instantly be cancelled without refund. If you are unable to supply any additional information they need within 2-3 weeks, they will also cancel your application without refund.

It seems like you might be looking at the DTV visa, but I'm not sure. If you are not, that's the visa I would recommend for something like this. If you're already in Thailand, then people have been recommending Vietnam as a good place to get the DTV recently.
