Has anybody put Airbnb as the hotel address on your tdac. ?

I did on my last one, they had harassed me more about my phone case and my gf picture on it then the tdac. But I’m thinking that’s not wise to put on the tdac

# 😕2 months payslips + signed contract + strong savings. Enough?

Planning to apply for DTV (Workcation) from Sydney in January. Wanted to get a sanity check from people who've been through it.

My situation:

* Australian passport, applying from Sydney

* Left my job in March (career break)

* Signed consultant agreement starting January 2025 (remote)

* 2 months of freelance income (September and December) via PayPal

* Savings 2-3x above the 500K THB requirement

* 7 years professional background (consulting).

My concern: I see 6 months of payslips listed as a requirement. I don't have that but I have strong savings and a signed contract.

Has anyone been approved with less than 6 months payslips if savings and contract were solid?

Also considering Soft Power (Muay Thai) as a backup but would prefer Workcation as I want to test gyms out when I am actually there. But if that's the better play, I can consider it.

Appreciate any insights.

Cheers.

Good day all,

Can I apply for DTV visa if I have thai wife and children living in Thailand ? I working abroad 3 month on/off. Marriage visa is taking time and hard to renew when I am at work when it's suppose to be renewed.

My DTV is with my old passport. I went to Hong Kong Thai embassy to ask for new passpot number change, but they told me to go back to the immigration in Thailand to ask for change it.

It's still ok to get in to the Thai boarder with DTV with my old passport and new passport?

DTV 180 Day Extension

Hey everyone,

What requirements need to be met to extend the DTV beyond 180 days each year?

hi everyone, does anyone know how straightforward it will be to move from Elite/Privilege visa to a non-o retirement once the Elite expires? could it be done without leaving? thank you

Hi to all,

I am going for my first marriage visa extension this week and in the Thai list of requirements to apply it says I need to take a witness which is not a relative, has Thai ID and house book.

Can anyone who has recently done this confirm?

Much appreciate any help

Hello all?! I am on a Non-O retirement Visa.

I returned from a foreign trip on December 2nd with the re-entry permit.

My landlord filed the TM-30 for me on December 3rd.

My lease expired in October and I found a better apartment that I'd like to move into on February 1st. That new landlord will also file another TM 30

My question is when do I do my 90-day report? It's a bit confusing. Thank you.

Hello everyone! I have a question regarding the DTV visa and TM30 registration. If my rental contract states that the lease starts on a certain date and ends on a later date (for example, a full year), should I indicate the end date of the lease in the TM30 form as well? Or is it better to leave the checkout date open-ended? I’m concerned about potential issues with immigration if the visa validity period doesn’t match the lease end date.

Has anyone experienced this before? What approach did you take, and did it cause any issues with immigration? I’d appreciate any insights or advice on how to handle this situation.

Thank you!

I’d like to ask for advice from those who have registered a foreign marriage in Thailand and obtained Kor Ror 22 at a district office (Amphur).

I’ve heard that some Amphurs keep the original foreign marriage certificate, while others only keep a certified copy. We only have one original document, so I’m a bit concerned.

Does anyone have recent experience with an Amphur that did not retain the original and accepted copies instead?

I understand that procedures can vary by district and may change over time — just hoping to learn from others’ experiences to choose the best option.

Thank you so much in advance!
