I am a U.S. citizen, I will be marrying my Thai fiance sometime this year. Which should I do, retirement or marriage visa?

Maybe I've been reading things incorrectly, but it seems like on the evisa retirement non O, it was said you get 2 months on arrival, then can extend for 30 days, and then can extend for 1 year by getting the bank account etcetera.

We just arrived today with our non o retirement visa and both I and my mom were given 90 days right away

Hey, all! I am finishing my visa application (DTV) and am on the last page. Just had a few questions before I submit; 1 & 2 seem pretty straightforward. 3, are they asking for my current US address, like a bill addressed to me? Not sure what they’re askin’ for. 4; can this be my US account, or do I need a Thai banking account? I do have a Wise account, that I could transfer funds into, however I’d prefer to keep it in my US account. 5; I do have a letter from a Muay Thai gym, however, it is 6 photos, and the maximum picture size can be no larger than 3MB. I have a file compressor, but I’m not sure which of the 6 files to upload.

I leave on the 22nd, for Pattaya. Hope this is enough time.

Thanks in advance!

1. Biodata page of passport or travel document

2. Photograph taken within the last 6 months

3. Document indicating current location

4. Financial evidence: amount no less than 500,000THB

5. Proof of activity to attend the activity or letter of appointment from hospital/medical center

I have flew to HCM from Bangkok to apply for the DTV Visa hoping to ask people in the embassy but you cannot walk in now. I run a business from the UK and have been doing so for 3 years. I have had £10,700 in one account however I have just transferred the rest into it - ( Will this effect the processing time? )I can provide invoices and work etc and are currently speaking to agents for a condo in bangkok which I can provide the address for.

The only thing throwing me off is the letter to yourself does anyone have experience for this and any key points to mention? and also the flight number and date of arrival which I havent booked as I was not sure what the visa situation was - What has everyone else done regarding the flight should I book it say 2 weeks from now with a flexible date or longer?

If anyone has any experience with this or could provide me with some help I would really appreciate it🙏🏼

Looking for advice on applying from UK. DTV 1

The Thai UK embassy site implies applying through Thai e-visa as opposed to directly through the UK site. Does the application then go to London for approval?

Document showing current location. Is this Council Tax, utility bills etc from UK entities?

They require bank statement showing £11,000. This gives exchange rate of 45.45 baht/£1 whereas it's lower now.

Also do you need to show this balance for 6 months?

Thanks in advance

Hi, from new zealand. We arrive in hua hin in may . We arrive on a 60 days,then apply for 30 days then a retirement visa. We will be going thru a agent , when they apply for our visas and open our bank accounts.do you pay any bank money directly to the agent, if not do you then go and deposit 800k yourself or can you dep 65k a month which is our preferred option . Thankyou

Im from Turkey, my bank doesnt provide 6 or 3 months statement in English. My bank only provides currently how much my account has in the saving in English. Is it enough for MuayThai Soft Power DTV ( I have 500,000 THB in account currently.) I am applying in Cambodia Phnom Penh

Has anyone applied for the DTV visa in Vietnam? I am planning to travel there soon to do it and wanted to know if they require the 500k baht to be held for a minimum period of time. Also, since I work remotely, what documents should I request from my employer?

I have a joint owned brokerage account with my wife linked to my checking account with Charles Schwab. I have $50000 in the brokerage account and all the money is in their money market mutual fund SWVXX which is an interest bearing cash account that can be converted to cash in 24 hours. If I allot for a DTV - will I need to move the mutual fund to cash at least 90 days before applying? Or can I move it to cash and then apply? Or does it matter? In any event the account has been over $50k for a year or more.
