Hello everyone!

I hope you’re all doing well. My husband, my daughter, and I are planning to move to Thailand, and I’m currently applying for the DTV (Thai Soft Power) visa from France. I have a few questions about the process and would greatly appreciate your guidance:

1. For the Thai Boxing Club that I’m applying to as part of my DTV visa, should I pay the fees in advance, or is it enough to simply obtain an invitation letter from them at this stage?

2. Regarding the embassy fees, do I need to pay them once the visa is approved, or should I pay when submitting the application?

3. What is the minimum duration required for the activity? Is six months sufficient?

4. If I pay in advance and my visa application is denied, will the fees be refunded?

Also, if anyone has any general advice or recommendations for families moving to Thailand under the DTV visa, I’d love to hear them!

Thanks in advance for your help! ❤️

I have 2 questions in the bottom.

But for some explanation.

I am pending approval for the DTV

Requirements 1 to 4 I have.

I am only missing no 5

I have paid the fee and they wanted additional information regarding being a freelancer.

( I have been self-employed since I was young )

Most of my customers and wholesale is done online from Danish customers ( I been living in Bulgaria since 2020 )

I have provided additional documents showing statements of remote work.

( I hope that it will get approved ).

However IF the additional documents is not proof enough, maybe because my income from this source is diminishing.

My focus since I left Denmark, is more on my investments.

Sow if not approved I am ready to apply again an the use the Thai soft power approach.

Proof of confirmation to attempt the activity.

Under Eligible Foreingers is sad

2 participates in activities such as

- Thai cooking classes

- Muay Thai courses 

I called the embassy in Bucharest to ask about the 5b and what Thai cocking class school / classes will count towards no 5 b Thai soft power. ?

The only answer I got it was a question back, if I was a cook.

That confuse me !

Is this correct that if I want to apply via 5 b Thai soft power Thai cooking classes.

I shall be a Cook first ?

Next question will be if I choose to take Muay Thai courses

Do I have to be a karate black belt 

 hope somebody can clarify this for me or point me in a direction where it stayed it more clearly than in the picture below.

Thanks
