My friend holds a Non Immigrant Business visa (Non B visa) which expires and renewed every December for the last few years.

He is going to register his marriage with his Thai spouse this month.

Does he need to do anything with his Non B visa? Or can he just renew as usual as if nothing happened.

He plans to continue using Non B visa , no plans to use Spouse/Marriage visa.

Hello everybody 👋

I fly in and arrive back into Phuket Thailand to start my Non O Marriage visa on Thursday 25th September 2025.

I worked out December 23rd is 90 days after 25/09/25 if you include the arrival day.

My mother has been unwell in Sydney Australia and I want to visit her around late October 2025 getting a re-entry permit to do so.

I just wanted to make sure incase the dates change to visit my mother when do I have to do this visit before to be back in Thailand in time to apply for my Visa Extension in phuket?

Is it 30 days before December 23rd?

Or in some cases I read you can apply 45 days before depending where you are.

Is there anything else I am Missing?

Thanks in advance 🙏

Hi everyone,

Just wondering if anyone else has applied for the DTV visa from Cambodia recently? I submitted my application on June 2nd, and it’s now been 18 business days – still showing as “Pending Approval.”

Is this delay normal, or should I be concerned? Would really appreciate hearing about your timelines or any recent experiences. Thanks in advance!

Update: got approved today 30/6 after 28 days (19 business days) 🥳

Has anyone gotten the DTV as a voice actor? I would think that would qualify as remote work for the purposes of the visa, right?
