Hello I’m Sharing my process with you from applying in Jakarta while staying in Bali, soft power muay thai and unemployed with no income for many years

Thank you to the group and to you T for all the help

Essential Costs in THB

Flights in out with flexible ticket + VOA = 12k

Hotel = 700thb per night x 5 nights

Food/drink = 1000thb per day x 5days

DTV online: 11.5k THB after exchanges see below

Note: The application is apparently payed by card only in IDR 5.6M = (11500thb) I expected to pay 10k in THB, so be better prepared than me for a more favourable exchange rate and experience.

Good info thanks.

Just to be clear, did you include your private rental in Thailand address or just mention it in a cover letter?
