As a German citizen, I have a non-O-retirement visa since several years. My annual extension of stay is May 7th. Is there a way to change it to February without having to go through the process of applying for a new visa?

My husband is applying for his dependent DTV visa - we have received conflicting information on the financial requirements and everything. The funds are in my bank account only. Do I need to show 1 million baht or 500k? I thought 1 million but now I've been told on multiple occasions 500k. We are applying from Jakarta. Any tips, general clarifications, shared experiences are welcomed and appreciated. Ty.

Accountant/bookkeeping DTV

Has anyone successfully applied for DTV as an accountant or bookkeeper?

Obviously would be remote working and not client facing.

I can get all the documents for a UK registered company and employment contract (I’m one do the directors and job role is accountant). 500,000+ in Bangkok Bank saving account for three months and 6+ months payslips from the company to UK bank account.

Was going to use an agent but the owner actually advised I do it myself. Currently on ED visa through them for a number of years. They were charging 65,000 baht and I think I would have been one of the first to use their DTV service with no guarantees it is accepted as per all agents.

Going apply for the DTV myself in Vientiane next month (only 180km drive from Khon Kaen) and really appreciate all the posts and advice on here.

Hi everyone,

I just received an email that my DTV application was marked as cancelled rather than rejected, after sitting in “pending approval” for six days. Great...

I have a slight suspicion that something might have gone wrong in my initial application, maybe some information wasn’t filled out correctly from my side.

Has anyone here experienced a cancellation (as opposed to a rejection)?

If so, what happened next and what steps did you take? Did you reapply right away, or take another route?

I’m currently considering just reapplying through the same embassy, but I’d really appreciate hearing from others who went through something similar.

Thanks a lot in advance!

Good Morning! I am planning to leave to Thailand next year June and was wondering if anyone had information that they could give me in regards to the DTV Visa and the requirements if I’m filing from the U.S? Thank you.

Question: Any Malaysians applied for the DTV via Vietnam? Can’t find specific requirement for Malaysians - the website seems to highlight some countries which require additional documents – and if not listed, ‘recommended’ to apply in their home countries.

Any advice appreciated!
