Hello

If you have a 5 year digital nomad visa do you still have to leave Thailand every 6 months ?

Hello friends,

I applied for DTV as remote worker at LA consulate mid March and around 10 days later got a request for more documentation. It’s been more than 30+ days now after submission with no update. I emailed them already 3 weeks post re-submission and still no update on the application. Still says ‘pending document check.’ If I get accepted, great. But, if I get rejected, can I walk into a consulate in Taiwan and apply there as a US citizen? It’s unfortunate that the LA consulate has taken as long as it has because I’ve heard from others that the Thai consulates in other parts of the US are processing at a much faster rate. Any advice will be appreciated.

Quick question: If I get the Non O, deposit the 800K, and after three months get the extension to 1 year, do I have to stay in Thailand for the whole 9 months until further extension, or can I leave, and come back before the first year is over? Thanks all for your reply, much appreciated.

This may be a daft question...

I'm looking to apply for a Non-Immigrant O-A Retirement visa for Thailand.

I plan to retire there at the end of this year.

When does the Visa period start?

For example, if I start the application now and it get's granted in say 2 months, will it's validity start the moment I land in Thailand?

Or when I get granted the Visa?

As I say, apologies if this is obvious to you all and thanks for any clarification.

We are interested in coming to Thailand long term from Canada, and curious what visa is best to arrive on. We are mid 30s, have a few rentals as our main source of income.

We will be enrolling our daughter in an international school in Phuket and

We also want to start up our dog business there.

What would be correct visa for us to apply for ?

I was thinking the guardians visa from the school as I’ve heard they assist with getting it but unsure if I can open/run a business on this visa?

Any recommendations for good visa agencies in either Bangkok or Phuket that could help us?

Thanks 😊

Hi everyone. I am planning on moving to Thailand shortly, marrying my girlfriend then living here on a marriage visa. Two questions.

Which visa should I enter Thailand on?

Would I have any problem entering on a one way plane ticket?

Thanks

Did I need to get a re-entry permit before leaving Thailand December 2024? I had to leave unexpectedly and return to the US for a family emergency.

In August 2024, I went through an agent to get an "O" retirement visa and the one year extension with multiple entry permit good until November 2025.

I am getting ready to return to Thailand and don't want to be held up at the airport.
