Just looking at the official online Thai visa website.
When selecting visa type, there a two different retirement strings. One via long term visa- purpose for visit- retirement.
or the other, via Non Immigration- retirement. Can someone please elaborate on the differences please?
I would be looking for the one suitable to apply for while in my own country, multiple entry, then renew each year while in Thailand. Cheers in advance.
I've just received my new passport, because the old one has expired. The embassy officers intentionally damaged the old one - they cut it and punched holes in it. Is it like it should be done? Will the Thai officers at the airport understand it?
Someone just mentioned to open a Thai bank account without a long-term visa I need a certified copy of my US passport from the United States Embassy, Has anyone heard of this before?
This did not come from a bank employee.
Also, I am trying to open this bank account so I can convert my tourist visa (60 day) into retirement visa .. i need a bank account ..
Do I need to print out the DTV page for immigration?
I’m heading to Thailand tomorrow and just realized I misplaced my printed out DTV, and no printer. Do I need to have it printed out for immigration at the airport? Or is it already in their system?
Hi guys. What additional documents do they want to see for the DTV?
They state: "Please provide details about your current work, including (1) your CV or portfolio, and (2) examples of your work, along with any supporting materials that demonstrate your experience and qualifications."
I am confused: I already provided a letter mentioning that I am a business owner/property manager and manage an airbnb in NYC. I provided the listing and a proof of income for 2024 & YTD 2025. I also provided the documents of my LLC.
