I've read that a spouse visa for uk is around £1900 for my thai wife and can take between 14-18 months, if they visa is unsuccessful do I lose the £1900 and have to pay again when applying next time. Is this information correct and does it take that amount of time any help and information would be appreciated. Also is it better using agents solicitors or doing yourself.

Hello! Couple of quick questions for the DTV as a little unclear to me...

- Do the proof of funds (500,000THB) need to remain available and in your bank account at all times? If so, when do they check this?

- I got my DTV in Nov 2024. Do I need to renew or repay visa fee at any point? I do leave the country every 90 days for holidays or similar.

Thanks in advance!

How much an agent / firm is charging for taking care of retirement visa in Bangkok ?

Tourists Visa extension for kids (4,9 & 10yo)? How much does it cost? Currently on a 60days tourist visa but wanting to extend 30 days.

Hey guys! I applied for TWO DTV visas one for me the other for my husband. His was rejected bc it says his passport exp date info doesn’t match the application’s exp date???? This is something that can obviously be edited. They just said REJECTED with no explanation.

Do you think I could talk to someone there or does this mean I’ve lost $400 and have to re-do his? I’m so confused help if anyone knows what I should do . Thank you in advance 🙏🏼

Hi,

Is someone able to help me out with a contact of a visa agency in chiang mai, that can help with DTV?

I visited one here couple weeks ago, but the fee mentioned was 135000B which seems very expensive to me..

thanks in advance!

I've just submitted my application for the DTV into the Thai Embassy in Canberra and was surprised to find the 10,000 THB fee charged as A$600 which at the current exchange rate is 12,600 THB! I have THB to pay with but the system only accepts A$.

Hello,

Me and my family (husband and three years old son) will apply to DTV on next days. We are from Portugal and have remote jobs. I have a few questions:

- the visa fee of 10000bth is for person? My son will have to pay?

- How long will it take us to fly if we apply now?

- every 180 days we have to leave and re-entry and show all documents again? And pay fee visa again?

Thanks a lot

Hello, I have 2 questions.

I have a on entry TR visa which I am about to renew. I have an electronic copy of my TM30. Can I print it out and use it for the extension request?

Also, I see that an appointment can be made for processing the extension. It shows Tourism Purpose 15 minutes฿ 1900. is that 1900 baht on top of the extension fee of 1900 baht ?

thanks

DTV application in Penang, Malaysia. Applied for a dependent visa for my daughter on my husband’s remote worker DTV.

Timeline: applied March 13. Approved March 24.

Visa fee: 1,600 MYR ($360 USD)

Nationality: American

We were emailed twice to request further documents: once on March 19 for a copy of father’s passport + a new visa photo with no shadow. Then again on March 21 for another new visa photo that was clearer. (We ended up taking a new photo on our phones of higher quality, since the other one was a scanned copy of a photo taken in a studio)

We were emailed the approval letter, which we printed and entered Thailand through Phuket a few days ago with no issues. No documents requested or questions asked at immigration upon arrival.
