✨ Question about the Soft Power DTV Visa (Thailand) ✨ — especially the courses that actually qualify.

I’ve seen that things like Muay Thai, Thai cooking, cultural training and even wellness or fitness courses are included, but I can’t seem to find an official list anywhere.

Also, I’m a bit confused about the medical route. I need some dental work done soon — but would that actually make me eligible for a 5-year DTV visa, even if the treatment only lasts around 6 weeks?

Ideally, I’d love to just do a yoga or fitness-related course, but I’m open to whatever works best for the visa requirements.

If anyone has gone through this process or knows a school / course that’s been accepted under the Soft Power DTV, please share! 🙏

Would really appreciate any tips, links, or firsthand experiences.

What are people's experience applying from Australia for the DTV using the "Thai soft power" activities and/or medical treatment? In this case dental. As I am not a digital nomad, but otherwise eligible. Thanks 🙏

Hello all I was in Thailand for two months last year. . I was there again this year for seven weeks. I am going back in February next year for possibly three months. When I'm there I am continuing with dental treatment I had in June July this year.

What is the best way to do this please for three months stay. Do I simply extend for an extra 30 days at my local immigration office in Hua Hin?

🙏🏻

Note to Trolls.

Yes I have googled it. Thanks👍🏻

Has anyone here had success with medical treatment for their approved activity? I have dental, dermatology, laser treatment and nutritionist appointments I can do; do I just show future appointments or how does this work?

Hi. With regard's to dental treatment in Thailand. What type of visa should one be applying for please. All advice appreciated. Thank you

I just visited my dentist here in Thailand to ask for the documents required for the DTV visa. They scheduled appointments for a 6-month treatment plan but didn’t ask me to pay anything upfront. Is that normal? I even asked if I could pay something in advance 😂.

The staff told me I could pay whatever amount I wanted 😂. How much would it be reasonable to pay upfront in this situation?

Has anyone ever successfully been able to get the DTV to study Buddhism, using a letter from the Abbot of a temple for the "Soft Power Activity"? As I'd like to seriously study Buddhism without ordaining and can obtain this document.

OR

Has anyone been able to use Dental work to qualify as the "Soft Power Activity/Medical treatment"?

TIA
