I’m currently stay with DTV but now I need to change the Guardian visa (Non O). Can I change visa within Thailand? Some people say that it can make within thailand and don’t need to go outside of the country.

If anybody knows about it, please share for me.

Thank you.🙏🏻

hello everyone, got my dtv approved in ho chi minh, flying back tomorrow. apart from my e visa printed out what else should i prepare for the immigration?

Had the most smoothest process through Bangkok airport with my DTV last night.

I did my DTAC card online the night before.

I literally just gave her my passport, and she didn't ask for my DTAC or DTV E-Visa or anything else more than my passport.

Doesn't get any easier than that!

Hello, I am planning to apply for the DTV visa from the French embassy (I am French).

Are there any people who have had a recent experience with this embassy?

I intend to apply for the DTV visa with the freelance option, but I do not currently have a company established.

Can you confirm if having a SIRET number (company registration) is absolutely required?

I would also like to know if a single invoice as proof is sufficient for the French embassy?

Anyway, what I mean to say is that if anyone has had a recent experience with the French embassy, I am highly interested in hearing about it.

Thanks 🙏

Hello,

I have applied for DTV visa. I filled the arrival date on the form as 13 August.

My application date: 28 July

Pending approval: 5 August

and today 12 august still on pending approval. I already changed my flight since it was free to change but I have a question. Now since tomorrow will be the day i filled in the form, if this date passes will they still process my visa and give or will they just reject since its already pass the date?

PS: i applied from Ankara.

Thanks for any replies,

best.

I'm a US citizen and have visited Thailand many times over the years, always with the visa-exempt 30/60 day stamp. But times have changed and I want a long-term visa and I'm considering all options, including the DTV Muay Thai option. My question concerns age: I'm 60+ and worried that if I apply for the DTV Muay Thai, it will be denied based on my age. Anyone else had this issue?

Arrived on a 3 month Non Immigrant O visa ( retired) and now want to extend. Immigration want the TM6 DTAC form as a requirement which has long???? I don't have it anymore and can't get a copy.

What do I do.

Thanks

Good morning.

My wife (Thai) and I will be returning to Bangkok from Australia this coming Saturday the 9th of August.

I will be doing the online TDAC for myself and am asking if my wife also has to do it ?

Looking forward to your positive feedback

Cheers

Hello! We’re a French family of 4. My partner got his DTV Workation visa, and I just applied for Thai Soft Power DTV.

Now the question is about our 2 kids:

3 y.o. and 6 months old and due to recent changes in France, we don’t have the 3-month financial proof required for children.

We arrive Sept 3

Thinking of applying for their DTV from another country (heard Hanoi is possible?). Anyone tried? Or maybe Kuala Lumpur ? Or any other?

Also for french people:

quelqu’un a déjà obtenu un visa directement à l’ambassade à Paris ? Je n’arrive pas à les joindre par téléphone…

Thanks for any help!

Hi all, I’m on a retirement visa and my first renewal date is 22nd Sept 2025. I’ve been doing my 90 reporting online but my next one I’d due 15th Sept only a week before my visa renewal. Can I just renew my non O visa early instead of doing the 90 day report?

Also, do I need the same documents for the renewal as when I first applied for my retirment visa, including the bank document showing the 800k came from the UK or is that not necessary anymore just 12 months statements? TIA
