Applying from Vietnam on 26 October. Muay thai. Just revieved all the documents from muay thai gym and they are wrong. My name has been misspelled. Obviously muay thai gym will need to redo it. While that is happening

I also noticed I paid for 12 months training but the muay thai gym letter says training from nov 2025 to august 2026. Is this an error? And there is a section that says visa will allow the individual to stay in Thailand a minimum of 90 days again is this an error or is this related to the 90 day check in?

Should I be asking the Gym to change that information as well

Hi there.

This is a question regarding the onward/ return ticket requirement, upon travelling to Thailand on a 60-day visa exemption stamp.

I intend to stay in Thailand for approximately 90 days in this way, later applying for the 30-day extension … Then I intend to travel onward to Cambodia.

I was wondering though … Is it necessary to hold a return/ onward ticket that departs Thailand within 60 days … or would it suffice to have a flight out of there 89 days after the day of arrival (the flight I actually need).

I’ve been checked for the onward flight thing twice in the past when traveling to Thailand, but I’ve never had the same considerations about extensions and onward travel as I do now.

Your advice on this matter would be much appreciated

Thanks 🙏🏻

Does anyone know if you can use Jiu jitsu as a soft power option?

Also what’s re the turnaround times like for London, Uk?

And… what is needed from the remote work job I have to prove for the visa?

Sorry for all the questions! 🙈 grateful for any help or suggestions! 🙏🏽

Hello, everyone. I am planning to apply for a DTV (Destination Thailand Visa) from Japan. I have one question. When applying for the visa, there is a field to enter the place of stay. For how long did you all book a hotel before applying? Is a hotel reservation for about 15 days acceptable? (The embassy information stated that proof of a stay of 15 days or more in Thailand is required, but I was concerned whether applying with the minimum number of days might lead to a rejection.) I've also heard that once rejected, it can be difficult to get approval later, which is why I'm asking."

90 day reporting query for DTV

Hi all - I have a question:

I will be in Thailand soon, and staying only 72 days. Then I will re-enter Thailand 38 days after.

What does this mean for reporting? Is it based on 90 days staying in the kingdom without leaving? Or 90 in total using the Visa?

Thanks all!

Need help with a refresher on the process of obtaining a retirement visa in chiang mai.

4 years back I did the below process, I recall that it was relatively easy, basically, my retirement visa and wife and child as dependents

1. Visa on arrival (Visa Exemption) 60 days , back then it was 30 days

2. After 15-30 day

3. Apply for Non-Immigrant O Visa (90day Non-O).

4. 30 days later, apply for Retirement Visa (Extension of Stay)

(I have a Thai Bank account already)

Once my visa is sorted, I start the process for my wife and child (6years old)(non-thai)

They will be a (dependent) from my visa

This is what I have done last time in Chiang Mai

I know what paperwork is required, birth certificate, marriage, passports, residential letter, cash in bank 800k.

(hopefully no changers)

Are there any changes I should be aware of?

Just a thought, is there any advantages for me to first get a 90day Non-O from my home country before arriving.

Thanks

Is it possible for your parents to stay with you in your condo while you are under DTV and they arrived under tourist visa. Talking about short stay like a couple days.

Just adding a data point. Arrived in BKK, we had to fill out TDAC, the TDAC asked for leave date and airline flight, we picked a random one about 6 months from now and filled that in. When we went continued through immigration and got stamped no questions were asked, we simply gave them our A1 printed out visas and was stamped for 6 months.

Is there any additional forms, or reporting needed on our end if we plan on staying 6 months?
