For the last 4 hours, I have tried to pay for my application via the website. But it keeps saying " payment failed or cancelled." Now there is nothing wrong with my cards and I also tried numerous browsers and even cleaned out my cache. I have no idea what to do from here. I have heard people online say it took them 3 days before the website would accept their payment. Does anyone have any idea how I can resolve this issue? Thank you.
So anyone have made a visa with an agent ? I want to apply for the dtv visa and i want to take an agent to make it for me he is doing it for 9 months he tell me can i trust them ? He tells me he will apply for me via cooking classes (i wanted to try via muay thai) but he told me many rejections by muay thai so should i trust it ? They ask 1000 euro for all costs of process and documents
I need to do my 90 day report by the 17th of June. I have a flight out of Thailand on the 23rd. My understanding is I get 1 week after the reported date to do it. Given I'm leaving one day before is it okay to not do it?
I spent 40 days in Thailand in Nov/Dec and 59 days in March/April. I plan to go to Thailand on 1st July after spending almost 2 months in Vietnam and I have a flight booked to Malaysia on 21st July (real one, not a temporary PNR reservation)
My worries stem from being questioned by the IO last time after she saw my flight to Vietnam was after 59 days.
Is it likely that I will get denied entry or am I overthinking it? The IO didn't explicitly say to get a visa next time but she did ask if I planned to come back to Thailand.
Hey this year I am doing my marriage extension on my Non-O, I am Iranian I read on the website some countries require background clearance from police before doing extension, we did this last year I thought it's only once and now we moved to Bangkok, is that normal and what docs i need to take to police? I found this using ChatGPT:

– Current visa stamp in passport (copy the page).

– A letter requesting a police clearance (e.g., for visa extension or background check).
* Work Permit (if applicable)
– If employed in Thailand, bring a copy of your work permit.
* Marriage Certificate (if applying under marriage visa)
– Original + copy (translated into Thai or English and certified if not in either).
* Spouse's Thai ID Card and House Registration (if applicable)
– If you are married to a Thai citizen.
* Photos
– Two (2) passport-sized photos (1 inch or 2 inches accepted).
* Fingerprint Card (optional if applying in person)
– Can be taken at the Police Clearance Center directly.
* Fee
– 100 THB for the certificate (standard processing in 15 working days).

I'm going to apply for DTV next week from Pakistan. I'm a faceless content creator on YouTube. My work is fully remotely, and I can prove my work, my earnings, and my bank statements.
Can anyone help me regarding what exactly documents I need to submit? Or is there any Whatsapp group about this visa?
