Question about traveling on soft power DTV:

Is there a limit on being able to leave Thailand particularly during your first 6 months on the visa? Because of course you’re supposed to be taking classes but it’s multiple entry?

Hi group! I'm getting prepared to apply for a DTV and have a few questions.

I'd like to apply through the Jakarta office as I'll be in Indonesia soon, but on Sulawesi, not in Jakarta. Do I physically need to go to the Jakarta office, or can I apply fully online from another region of Indonesia?

I'm thinking of applying for the workcation as I'm under contract with an online teaching company, but I'll only have one or two months of pay to show. Those who have gone through Jakarta - how many months of income did you need to show? (I'm coming off of a non-b visa, so it's a transition time which is why I'll only have a couple months of recent online pay. I've also plenty of savings to show, so that aspect isn't an issue).

My other option is doing a soft power. I saw that "seminars" was an option. Has anyone done this one? What does it entail?

Thank you everyone! 🙏

Just new to this so don't shoot me down if this has already been answered multiple times! But where is the best place to find out which organisation can be used for a soft power visa? Thanks

Can anyone provide guidance on using an annuity to qualify for the DTV by receiving monthly payments? I receive $1500 USD monthly, and I am married with one son.

As a residents of Texas, USA, I am inquiring about the requirement to maintain $15,000 USD in our account for 3 or 6 months? And if the $15,000 is per person or per main applicant?

Also, do I need to obtain the annuity form and have it apostilled by the state department?

After my visa is approved, should I apply for dependent visas for my partner and son separately or at the same time as my own application?

I would appreciate any guidance on this matter.h lf

Hello, I was thinking about applying under soft power medical for diabetes but I received this response from a hospital in bangkok stating I need to see their doctors for a year for diabetes care which doesn't help me now 😅

Does anyone have any experience or recommendations for a hospital in Bangkok?

Otherwise, it's looking like I'll be applying under the cooking soft power.

Thanks

I applied to and received a DTV visa through the soft power route, since I’m not yet making a lot of money as a freelancer. Now I see that it says on my visa under remarks: ‘employment not allowed’. I was hoping to continue working for non-Thai clients. Can someone please confirm that even soft power visa holders are allowed remote work? I’m also unsure now what to put on my tdac.

Hi everyone

I’m planning my soft power application from

London.

Can someone please provide me with the official link to apply online for the UK Thai embassy. I can’t seem to find it on Google

I will be applying for the soft power route with Muay Thai.

I assume I need the following is there anything I’m missing?

1. Muay Thai gym package details and receipt

2. 500k in saving

3. Passport - is this just the main page with my photo and passport details?

4. Proof of residency - if my bank account has my UK home address is this sufficient or should I add my drivers license or utility bill too?

5. Flight details? I’ve heard some people just needed to provide the flight number or do you need to provide proof of payment and confirmation etc?

Thank you so much

- Free visa ending on 19th of September

- 500k+ in my Kasikorn bank account deposited in the next few days (no 3 month record)

- been freelancing here and there and have some incomes from payment gateways from my country and also international Stripe & Whop

- had ED visa before and multiple tourist visas

- currently in Bangkok

- short personal letter

- no current work or income

What’s my best option? And which consulate?

1. Applying by myself to a Workation freelance DTV right now with what i have

2. Applying by myself with a muay thai gym package and invitation letter

3. Waiting 3 months with the money in the bank and then applying

4. Using an agency to help me apply to either Workation or Soft power

5. Applying for a 1 year work permit visa instead of DTV

Thank you for your help and comments.

Want to apply for Soft Power (Muay Thai) in Germany as a German citizen. Has anyone done that and got approved and can let me know what documents you've send in, how long it took and if the embassy had any additional requests?
