Hello, I have a question about DTV Soft Power. As a musician who has already done it for participation in a festival or concert, I can't find any information on this subject. Thank you very much.

Hi everyone,

I’m applying for the DTV and had a question. Would it be allowed to hire someone locally in Thailand to assist with ongoing tasks related to my remote work?

It wouldn’t be employment under a Thai company, just freelance support for my own work, which I do independently.

Has anyone done something similar or know if this is permitted under the DTV? Appreciate any guidance!

Got my DTV two weeks ago.

Tried my luck opening a bank account with a few banks. No success. Can I apply for a student guardian visa at this stage, get it for three months (will not plan to renew it), just for the sake of opening a bank account? Will let that guardian visa expire and remain with my 5 year DTV?

Hi , can I get advice please, I exited Thailand on 23-3-25 after a eight month stay , (broken up by a boarder run and two weeks in Vietnam) so in that eight month period I was in Thailand for over seven months …. I was told by immigration I cannot re-enter Thailand for a six month period….. I’m now in The Philippines wanting to book a trip to London / Heathrow,, nearly all the flights go via Bangkok ,, self transfer ….. Will I be allowed to enter Thailand as technically I have to go through customs to claim my baggage to rebook on connecting flight ?? TIA..

Does the DTV bar you from conducting any work in Thailand OR working for a Thailand-based company? For example, I also do professional speaking. I'm American. Could I get hired to speak in-person at a corporate event or retreat in Thailand that is put on by an American company?

Anyone know if you can teach in a school and maintain DTV Visa or do you have to switch to the Non-Immigrant "B" Visa?

1.) Generally speaking, it is much more "easy and straightforward" to apply for a DTV at a Thai Embassy/Consulate nearby Thailand:

Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Philippines, Laos, perhaps Malaysia, etc.

2.) Even at Thai Embassies/Consulates in some OECD Member Countries, the overall process could also be described as "easier and more straightforward", such as:

Australia, UK, USA, etc.

3.) Nevertheless, curious about field reports/experiences of applying for a DTV at the Thai Embassy in Tokyo

4.) From new information on the Website of the Thai Embassy in Tokyo, it seems that non-residents of Japan PERHAPS may be able to apply for a DTV E–Visa at Tokyo, as the stated evidence for "non-residents of Japan" is:

Entry Stamp into Japan showing the Passport Book #,

e.g. older versions of USA Passport Books do not have the Passport # on every page of (older) USA Passport Books

5.) Also, even though all Thai Embassies and Consulates accept and issue E–Visas via the Thai eVisa website, the Thai Embassy in Tokyo has a "Preliminary Consultation" specific for DTV E–Visa applications BEFORE submitting a DTV E–Visa application on the Thai eVisa Website
