Has anyone else gotten this request and what did you do? I don't have any money just sitting in my bank doing nothing, it's all in stocks. If I sell 500,000THB of stocks and deposit into my bank will they accept that? Seems like a ridiculous waste of time

Does anyone know of an agent or service that can help with the DTV application for self-employment out of Phuket or Koh Samui? I’m feeling a bit nervous about handling it on my own. I just arrived in Thailand and want to make sure I follow the best process. My company is based in the US, but I didn’t have time to apply before leaving, so I’d like to take care of it while I’m here. Any suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated!

It would be for 2 people applying.

Greetings and thanks for allowing me in your group. Maybe somebody can help with an issue I’m having. I fill out my DTV application online and everything is fine. That is until I go to pay the fee🤷🏻‍♂️

Every time I try to pay the application fee, it gives some kind of error message saying not accepted or canceled? I have used three different web browsers and five different credit cards and nothing works..

I have called my credit card companies and they say there are no problems with my cards such as fraud, and calling the Thai embassy here in America they say their website is working fine

I have checked my information over and over again and everything is correct. Last year with the regular E visa I had no problems at all. Can anybody clarify what might be the issue outside of everything I already verified above that is not the issue?

Thank you in advance 🙏

58 years old, looking at visiting Thailand for 6 months in April, Had O retirement visa 3 years back. was easy to obtain.

What visa should I get for just 6 months?

Was considering O visa, but not sure about the funds I need to deposit (800k, or was there another option of 400k then a monthly transfer of 65k)

But if I'm not worried about renewing my visa in 12 months, I could send 800k to my Thai account, get visa and then next day send it back to my Australian bank account

what do you think, is there an easier visa for 6 months?

Tutorial.

Before applying, check the web for ppl who successfully applied from the exact same situation as yours. often they share files they provided. use them.

the application site is tricky. you can't change it, you can't trick it.

so before you finally submit, you check each and every letter of your data.

the passport scan function is the direct way to being rejected. scan, and then check and mostly edit each field, so they match your passport.

deliver what they ask for. not more, not less.

have more money on your account than the equivalent of 500k baht. exchange rates change, and the process can last longer.

you can't appeal, you can't "talk to somebody". so be diligent, don't mess around. each pdf can only be one file. if you have more pages, ask google how to connect them.

ignore facebook groups. the amount of false and guessed info is tremendous.

finally: different nationalities have different levels of requirements. different countries may ask for different documents. so think twice where you want to apply.

Hi there,

First of all, happy new year.

Does anyone have experience with a Muay Thai school that is suitable for the DTV visa in Bangkok? So yes, which ones do you recommend?

Thank you!

Hi everyone I’m super sad I travel to Vietnam and apply here for the DTV under a workcation status not sure what went wrong but 4 days after applying I get into my profile on their website and there is nothing seconds after receive this emails with not more explanations or options to fix anything , did I just lost all my money and time ? Or there is anything I can do ?

Is it recommended to apply for a DTV in Phnom Penh online?

Hi everyone, I've received our TM30s from the agency we've rented our condo from as a pdf on WhatsApp. He said we don't need to print them off just show them on our phone to immigration. I just want to double check that this is correct

I hope someone might be able to help with a few questions about the DTV visa.

From what I can read, to get approved, I must be able to provide evidence of having 500k baht in my bank account. That's fine, but do the money have to stay there for the entire stay in Thailand or am I allowed to use some of it?

The alternative is a sponsorship letter, if I'm not wrong? What would that look like? Does anyone have an example of such a letter?
