I'm looking for muay thai gyms in Bangkok to apply for DTV, anyone has any recommendations?

Hi everyone! I just wanted to ask if having 500k spread across three bank accounts is acceptable when applying for the DTV. My savings are split between THB and EUR on Revolut, and my local currency in a domestic bank account—so overall, three different currencies across two banks. I’ll probably apply in Ho Chi Minh.

I could consolidate everything into THB on Revolut, but it would take a few days and I’d prefer to avoid the fees and exchange rate losses. Any advice?

Is there anyone who submitted DTV from Cambodia around 16th of May? How's the progress? Mine was a taking longer 14 days and I'm getting worried.

Hello everyone, we are going to do the DTV in Cambodia in a couple of weeks. For the dependents, we have french birth and marriage certificates. We will get them translated in Thai or English but do we need to have the translation legalized by our embassy? Thanks!

Hello,

My husband and are are planning a move to Thailand. We plan on spending 5-6 months in a row in the country each year.

We are US citizens

We make 2,000 a month (social security)

We have 210K USD in savings

My husband is 69 years old

I am 39 yrs old.

We currently live in France.

We are planning on purchasing a rental property that will increase our income to 4,000 USD per month.

Can we get a DTV as retired people?

Do you need to have a ticket out of the country when you're on a DTV and going through customs? I've always had a ticket out of Thailand for one reason or another when coming into the country but the next time I come in I won't need a ticket out for any reason (even though if history is any indication I'll be leaving the country sometime before 180 days is up)..if I do need one I know I can always get a cheap one-way to HAN on TG when I need it.

Hi everyone! 👋

I’ve been reading through some posts here and I have a few visa questions I hope someone can help with:

For the DTV (Digital Nomad) visa — is it allowed to sell products online while living in Thailand? Some people say it’s not allowed to work or sell, others say it’s okay as long as your income comes from outside Thailand. Which is correct?

For the Non-O Retirement visa — if I apply by myself (not using an agent), is the chance of rejection high?

Thanks so much in advance for sharing your experience or advice! 🙏

Can I open a bank account in Thailand on the DTV? I was told that some banks will not allow it.

Hello, I'm currently on a METV and was planning on applying for DTV next week, I've read many posts on this subject, and there seems to be division on the matter, some say that once DTV is issued then that automatically cancels TR and that what happened to them, some say that they were told by embassy to reapply after METV expires.

Can we get clarity on this
