What is my best option?

Hello everyone,

Thank you all for the great information and help, you are sharing in here. I have been looking into my options and I would kindly ask for your best advice, since I'm unsure what would be the best option for me.

1) 💰 Bank statement requirement:

I have more than 500.000 Thai bath on my account, but I have it, in my *company bank account *😏

Could one “change” the bank statement pdf, and put ones name on it, instead of my business name? 🤫

Or would it be a better option, to transfer the money to my personal account - and then transfer it back after approval? - problem here will be, that then I can't show a 3-6 months bank statement...

If I transfer the money, I would probably need to apply from a country, that only requires current bank statement, and not the last 3-6 months... I was looking into Myanmar, but it seems like it gets to complicated to go there.

2) 👩🏼‍💻 Soft power or digital nomad option:

a - It seems like the soft power, is a lot easier and have a better succes-rate. Is this your experience?

b - My former visa agent (used for ED visa), charges 65.000 bath (all incl) for the soft power option. I find this to be too much, especially since I don't intend to do the training and the fee is lost, if the visa does not goes through...

c - Could *yoga* be an option instead of Muay Thai (I know a yoga place, that offers this, just not sure if it's just as 'safe').

I managed to get myself so confused by now, that I'm considering to just do a second round of ED visa 🙃

All your help is much appreciated, thank you all in advance ☺️🙏🏼

Hi, what would you guys say is the best visa to stay for around 6 months? Education or tourist visa with extensions etc? What would be the cost? Thank you to any experts who can give some info.

We are married. For a retirement visa, do we both need to have 800k in a Thai bank (1600 total) or will 800k be sufficient for both of us. What are options if we don’t have the 1600k but want to stay for a year? TIA.

Im 51 years old abd here currently from UK on 60 day tourist visa excemption and plan to extend soon for 30 days.

However, i wish to apply for longer term 5 years visa, or 1 - 2 year visa with work permit, as I would like to live and work here.

When is best for me to apply? Should I do so now during this current tourist visa period?

Also what's the easiest longer term visa for me to apply for?

Hi ,

I just retired @65

I have a Thai partner (living together in Europe for last 3 years , will marry sometime this year ) , I also have a freelance job working 2 months on 2 months off which visa should I apply for ?

Hi all, advice needed as there seems to be so many options.

We are a family of 4, I'm 40, wife is 36, 2 children (12 and 7)

I have a ltd company in uk where I am the only employee but can work anywhere with a wifi signal.

Kids are both home schooled, so education isn't an issue.

What visa would be best option.?

My 12 year old wants to do muay thai, so education visa worth it?

Dtv visa - will it cover my family?

I dont fancy wasting money on border runs every few months, as we plan on going koh samui.

Any advice would be massively appreciated.

We don't have the funds for the elite visa, so that's not an option.

Hello guys! Looking for advice.

Military veteran here receiving monthly compensation income permanently whether I’m working or not. I’m only 28 so I’m not at the retirement age. I do not have a remote job. Currently living and working in Japan.

Is there any way I can obtain a visa and use military compensation as my income?

Has the government ever canceled a visa option?

Is there a likely hood this could happen with the DTV?

🙏

Anyone here used Fitfac Muay Thai academy to get their DTV?

Hello, is the soft power option limited to Muay Thai or can I do it with Freediving training, let’s say 1 month training. I plan to come training regularly at good season but not always at the same location due to weather conditions.
