Hello,

I have a bit of an odd situation. I have a DTV, and am living with my long-term GF from Europe who doesn't have. Immigration has become more strict and having doubts she'll be let back in when we go back.

We can't do dependent DTV because Thailand doesn't recognise common law marriage.

However it just so happens we'll be travelling to Taiwan in a couple of days, and I've just emailed their embassy. The embassy says we can apply through the E-Visa Portal, and we have to comply with the requirements set out on their embassy website.

The thing is, on their embassy website, it doesn't specify the need to hold 500k Thai Baht for 3 months, just that you have 500k Thai Baht in the Account and can prove it.

*"Financial evidence: amount of no less than 500,000 THB OR equivalent amount in foreign currency e.g. bank statements OR sponsorship letter covering living expenses."*

[[members only])

In that case, I'm pondering a few things and would appreciate any insight or help into any of the points.

1) Could I just transfer her like 20k EUR from my account a couple of days before, and would that suffice? No need for 3 month proof when reading their site...

2) If the visa application was taking too long, could we cancel it before they've completed their review? We only have a set amount of days in Taiwan, and we're due back to Thailand for a wedding on the 3rd of Dec. All flights and accommodation booked, so I dont want to lose it.

Me again folks... I started from scratch and got it right this time. I will apply for a non-immigrant O visa. I'm already in Thailand, as I said yesterday, so I plan to go to Vietnam in a few weeks to send my application to the thai embassy in Hanoi.

According to what I just read, it can take between 3 to 15 days to get the visa. Is that accurate in most cases? If not, it makes it hard to plan a return date.

Also, in the requirements it says I need financial evidence showing monthly income of no less than 65,000 THB, which I have. But the canadian embassy does no longer give a certificate of income. The pension fund I have gave me an official letter stating how much money I get from them monthly. Is that good enough for the thai immigration or will I need a balance of 800,000 THB (e.g., bank statements for the last three months, sponsor letter)? Thanks again for your help, it's very appreciated.
