I'm slightly confused. I understand the 400,000 bht requirement in a Thai bank to get the marriage visa. I also understand that I will need to get the 90 day non-o visa from my local Thai consulate. However, I saw a requirement that I need to show a financial amount of 20,000 bht to apply for that 90 day visa.

1. That seems like a very small amount; only about $600. Is that correct?

2. I assume that it can be in a US bank, but is there a certain amount of time that the deposit must be shown?

3. Can it be in a joint checking account with my wife, or does it need to be in a separate account in my name only?

4. If I can't use a joint account, can I show an IRA account that is in my sole name?

5. I realize that these are probably very dumb questions, but I want to make sure that I have everything properly arranged before I start. Thanks

Planning to apply for an o visa based on marriage from London Thai Embassy have easily adequate funds and income etc my question is My money and income into bank

is held in a joint account ( I can if necessary prove income by P60's etc ) the Thai website doesn't specify or say it must be in sole name

I'm aware that when I open a Thai bank account it Must be in sole name but this is only for the 90 day part of the 'o' visa any experience at the London e visa application and sensible advice would be gratefully appreciated

Hello. I wanted to ask about extending a DTV visa.

I understood that you need to present ALL the documents that were initially presented when first got the visa,

only now the updated ones. So I wanted to ask:

1. Do you need to bring everything printed there (pay slips, bank balance, employment letter from the employer, etc.) including the translation of the documents into Thai ?!

It's at least 40 pages for me...

2. Some people said that you most present them a place of permanent residence or a house contract ?!

I travel and move from place to place, can I present just the TM30 from the hotel where I am staying at the time ?

3. When is the optimal time to do the extension ? 1 week before DTV expires, ok ?

Thank you all, have a nice day !

I have been getting some conflicting information on the Thailand DTV Visa on the requirements for the $14,500+ that’s needs to be in bank. I have been seeing 3 months and 6 months. I will be applying online with one of the US embassy’s but before I apply does anyone know the exact time that money needs to be shown in the bank?

I’m completing the Non-OA visa application, and have a few questions.

The application requests the “7. Foreign Insurance Certificate, as stipulated by the Office of Insurance Commission and Health Insurance of Thailand, must be completed, signed, and stamped by the insurance company. The form can be downloaded from [members only]”.

The documents provided by the insurance company provide the exact same information as required in the form, but have a slightly different appearance than the downloaded form.

Should I have the exact form completed or is the priority to provide the required information? Any idea as to what would be acceptable to the embassy?

*The other issue is that the insurance policy is 5MB instead of 3MB or smaller. “6. Health Insurance issued by a Thai or foreign insurer, covering general illnesses, including COVID-19, with a minimum insured sum of 100,000 USD or 3,000,000 THB. “*

*What are the expectations here? Do they need the entire document? Is there a reliable free app that can further downsize the original 18 page PDF? *

I used a trial of Adobe Acrobat to compress the file further. It looked terrible, so I split the original file in half and compressed each half separately and rejoined them. It's both under the 3MB limit and more legible.

Thank you in advance.

Dear members.Recently I learn that you need to have 4 months in saving for renewer of retirement visa in Bangkok Bank.2 months before and 2 months after.Total=4 months.Is not the requirements of immigration but is the new policy of Bangkok Bank to prevent scam.

Hi all. I am planning on applying for the DTV from Laos for workation purposes. I am director/shareholder for a long established UK limited company. I am trying to work out from the embassys website what i need to get the uk office to send over for me for this visa. Has anyone in a similar situation applied? Could you confirm what you needed to provide them in that circumstance?

like, they ask for it to be stamped with a company seal which most uk companies dont even use, for testimonial from customers confirming my work there etc etc (which seems unneccesary as I am not a freelancer)

Any advice appreciated. :) thanks

I run a limited company and pay myself a salary of £1,000 per month, with an annual dividend top-up of around £20,000. My total income on my tax return comes to approximately £32,000 per year.

I recently moved 500,000 THB from the company account into my personal account. I usually invest my funds personally (e.g. in stocks), and I generally keep a personal balance of around £3,000–£4,000. This time, I deposited the 500,000 THB directly into my personal account.

Will my salary and dividend structure be sufficient for DTV Workcation Visa? What’s the lowest amount of income has someone been accepted with?

Can anyone confirm if when applying from Hanoi if I would need 500k per dependent in my account? I am planning to get dtv and then my wife and 2 kids would be my dependents 🙏🏼

Hi!

Looking to apply workation DTV in Ho chi Minh.

I'm hired as a remote contractor. My company can provide Employment letter, however, I only worked there for 2 months. I have proof of requirement for 500k baht savings already.

Wondering if I'll absolutely need payslips for the last 6 months.

Note that i get paid in digital currency so im not sure how i can show salary payment in bank account. I do have tax returns for my prior employment years, though it wasnt remote.
