Is there any foreign investor here? If I do not get an investor/elite visa, I intend to apply for a working visa as optional. From my understanding, If I want to start a tour company here, it appears that a local partnership with 51% ownership is required. The information I found online is quite out of date. Is this policy still in effect these days. Also, I discovered that there are numerous unregistered companies with no licenses operating tours in Thailand. (ex. [members only], [members only]/) Are the laws allowing this? They don't seem to be in any trouble. I'm looking for advice on starting a tour business in Thailand and I can't seek a clear information about it. What kind of visa and license do I need? I heard there is more than one license required. This is a little confusing.

Quick question about the bank account statements and so on, as i want to get this done in the first try:

I am a US citizen applying in Ho Chi Minh and I have been a self employed business consultant for over 5 years.

What specific documents do i need that have been working the best for others in the group? (Ex: EIN, State corporation LLC paperwork, client contracts, etc)

Then in regards to banking:

Is it okay to use 6 my personal statements from different personal accounts or does it need to all be from one bank?

Also could i use the business bank account statements in place of my own?

Much appreciated 🙏

Hello, i just wanna ask your advise

I am a chinese, working in Philippines. I have visa in Phil and i plan to stay in a long period in thailand.

1. Aside from certificate of employment, passport,payslips, bank statements, and visa what else should i request from my company?Will my regular employment contract suffice?

3. Is it better to apply at the embassy or online?

Any advise would be appreciated! Thank you!

Be cautious about providing proof of financial requirements well above minimum? Has anyone provided proof that you meet the DTV's financial requirements when you have far more in your financial institution than what is required? I have quite a bit more than the 500K THB that is the minimum requirement and feel wary about showing my actual net worth to a foreign government I haven't dealt with before. I could split some of it off into a second smaller account, but I wouldn't have a statement for that new account until the end of November and since I'll be leaving my country mid-December, I won't be here when they mail the visa to me, if I'm approved. Thoughts? Thanks.

Does anyone has experience with extension process after 180 days

What questions do you have that haven’t been answered about the DTV?

I’m speaking with a government official this week and will discuss the DTV

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone had experience with the soft DTV from London / UK??

how many monthly statements did you need to provide for the 500k thb, and does the soft dtv also have the same income requirements as the full remote worker dtv?

I was considering an Ed visa for muay thai but this seems a much better option with multi-entry..

DTV as a remote worker - weekly minimum hours required?

Hi All, sorry if this has already been covered elsewhere but I did a search here and couldn't find an answer, also on the Thai Embassy Canberra website this question isn't specifically addressed.

If applying for a DTV as a remote worker, is there a minimum number of hours you are required to work a week/minimum income required per week?

I have more than the required savings of 500,000 TBH in my bank account.

Does anyone also know if you haven't got a remote work contract in place at the time of application, it would be recommended to apply through the soft power route, and then try to secure online work while in Thailand (with an Australian company) and swap over the category of the DTV? I would be applying from Australia, and would preferably like to be earning some income via remote work while in Thailand.

Any advice on this would be very much appreciated! 🙂
