I started my DTV application on the thaievisa.go.th website. At one point they ask me when I want to go to Thailand, what flight number, how long I want to stay, and "I shouldn't ask for the DTV visa more than 3 months before actually going to Thailand".

Questions:

1. I want to get my visa first before booking my flight and accomodation, so can I just fill random stuff temporarily?

2. If I get my DTV, is there a 3 months limit like other visas, like if I don't enter Thailand during these 3 months my DTV is lost?

Today, I went to Samui Immigration for my non-o visa renewal appointment. They took the documents and stamped my passport with 8 August as the day to go back. I want to book international flights leaving as soon as possible after my visa is processed. So, my question is: how long does the process take from 8 August? When can I book my flights after this date?

Not a visa question, but a flight question. I've noticed that I can get a round trip business or even economy flight for about the same price as a one-way ticket. I'll be coming in on a Non-O with no plans of leaving, is there any downside to booking that flight? Will I be on the hook for any fees for not taking the outbound flight?

So I read in a few posts that we have to submit the flight number of a booked flight when applying for DTV.

Is this correct?

It seems strange to book a flight before you have an approved visa.

In our case, my husband is applying for DTV and when his is approved, myself & 3 kids will then apply with him as our sponsor.

Why would we want to book 5 tickets if we don’t know the visa will be approved?

How have other families done this?

Hi all,

Just need some advice if possible:

Can you help with the below and how to respond:

Other request documents: - Your recent (balance within last 30 days ) personal (cash flow / current account )UK/Ireland bank statement shows your name, your UK/Ireland address, and a minimum closing balance of 11,000 GBP (Screenshots are not accepted).

As I live in between two countries I can provide my overseas account with the relevant funds but not my uk account. I can transfer money from my overseas account back into my uk account to provide the amount required but will the embassy accept this on short notice? I have already provided my overseas account with GBP in there also but this wasn’t accepted as they’ve asked again.

Other request documents: - Please upload your E-Ticket of your Flight booking showing your name as passenger , departure date, all flights en route from UK/Ireland/UK territories to Thailand

Is there anyway I can buy a ticket without paying for it for a month or so as I’m not exactly sure when I’ll leave for Thailand.

Any help would be greatly appreciated to overcome these questions.

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone.

I'm considering applying for a DTV for a workation as a business owner and have a few questions:

1. I haven't booked my flight tickets yet. Can I provide the flight number I'm planning to book, or do you require confirmed tickets? Is it acceptable if I end up booking a different flight later?

2. I intend to stay for over 100 days. My plan is to book a hotel for the first 5 days and then arrange alternative accommodation for the remainder of my stay. Is it okay to only provide information for the initial hotel? Additionally, since I don't have a hotel reservation yet, is that a necessary requirement?

Thank you!

Just went through the UI to buy a ticket with e dreams, declined all of the bullshit add-ons and the very last page (already did all my traveler info etc) was to sign up as a prime customer or ADD 13 bucks (to a 70 dollar ticket) to continue as a non member. So instead e dreams can fuck off and I'll give my money to ANYONE else. The people who give people like this money need to stop getting invited to parties.

Hey all!

I promise I tried the search function 🤷but I can't find the name of the website that I can "book" a flight out of Thailand with, for purposes of the entrance requirements.

I already have my actual one-way in booked from the states. But I am not sure what my onward travel plans will be just yet.

So IIRC there is a company that helps with this requirement for entry?

How y'all can afford to fly to Thailand from the States? Before covid, I used to fly Business class on my limited income. Nowadays, I can't even afford economy or cattle class! Today lowest price for an Economy Seat from east coast to BKK is $2,500 for the period around and post Christmas! DANG!

Is Agoda good to use to book flights? Comes up more than 2000bht cheaper than booking through websites airasia etc
