I applied for DTV visa via soft skills (Muay Thai school) but accidently put freelance as the occupation as i plan to teach english tuition in the future. I should have put as student.

They are now asking for documents I cant provide.

I even submitted a document explaining the situation but they just asked for the same documents again.

Should I re-submit and pay for another application or wait for rejection before applying.

My worry is that they wont see other applications from same person if there is already one pending.

Kindly seeking some advice!

Does anyone have any advice on teaching English as a second language in Thailand?

I've been told that Thailand has local programs for TEFL certification, which also offer cultural orientation. Any recommendations of those?

New to the site and from what I have seen I will probably get some great advice.

Looking at moving to Thailand to be with my girlfriend and looking to get married.

Im 53 currently working as a prison officer.

She owns her own home and runs her own business.

What is the best way for me to get out there? I would also like to work if possible.

Any help would be very much appreciated.

Good evening. English, over 55.

I'm hoping to move to Chiang Mai area in October/ November 2024. I already have TEFL qualification, level 3. In Chiang Mai I intend to then take level 5 TEFL. My intention is to teach English online and at language schools. I do not have a degree. Any advice on best visa to obtain initially and then when in Thailand gratefully received.

I'm considering moving to thailand for a year. I have a pension that pays me enough to qualify for the LTR wealthy pensioner visa from what I understand. Do you have to be 50 years old to qualify for this? I'm 41, if this disqualifies me, are there other options to stay for around a year to see if I want to stay longer? Visa runs, muay thai visa, enroll my daughter in school etc. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

Hi everyone, I'm Dita from Indonesia. I currently hold a diploma and am planning to apply for jobs in Thailand. Do companies in Thailand generally accept diplomas, or is it true that work permits in Thailand require only a Bachelor's degree?

Hi,

I would like to know what options are available... I have been offered to help out at my Thai friend's shop/restaurant and help the staff there with their English. Is it possible to get a volunteer visa for this kind of work? Or do I need a proper work permit? Is it possible to do this work legally?

Thanks in advance🙏

Hey everyone, my 30 days visa is almost coming to an end and I would like to extend until May. What is the best way to go about this?

I would like to teach English here but I’m not sure how long that will take. Or renting a place out? Can I do that without having to extend my visa. I would rather rent a place than to continue to hotel hop

My visa expires March 8 to be specific

Please advise

Thank you all 🙌🏾

I'm very new to here and trying to gather information for moving to Thailand but what I see and please correct me if I'm wrong, if you want to work your best bet seems to be teaching. What other types of jobs would a westerner be able to do without buying a business nor having a Thai family or partner?Is there possibility?Tired of cold, rain and gloomy weather and my partner and I looking for a change.We are not in retirement age yet late 50's for both. Any guidance would be much appreciated.
