Hello, my Name is Dieter and I‘m from Austria. I intend to work in Thailand for my Italian company as freelancer with a DTV visa, long term. My First question is: can I open a bank account in the future? And what requirements do I need to meet? Second: can I make a change-of-visa to a Non-Immigrant Type O visa some day?Especially since a bank account seems to be a requirement for the Type O visa.

Any insights or experiences?

I have a TR multi entry visa that is good through July 2025 (Given by U.S. embassy as a consolation prize instead of the DTV I paid for).

Is this a firm expiration date, or does it renew for six months each time I enter Thailand? I have read that some other types of visa can work this way. Thanks

Flying out of the country and returning on the same day for 6 months extension, is it possible? Or is it risky to do?

Would staying 1 night and flying back the next day be safer? Anyone with experience that flew back same day did you have any troubles? Thank you

Hi all, I am currently on a Non-B visa (for the past two years) but recently got married to a Thai male and am planning to change over to Non-O marriage visa, we plan to leave the country and apply outside, but we aren’t sure where we want to go. Due to having to go out we decided to make it into a trip and want to go to Japan. Has anyone applied for a Non-O in Japan or outside the country and what was required?

I have a list of requirements but it can be different depending on the country your apply in and we’ve read and been advised so many different ways and options that it’s a bit confusing now.

Any advice or clarification would be wonderful!

Thank you!

Hello !

Can I ask you the experts a question about the financial statement for a Non-OX immigration visa that my wife and I are applying?

When I called the Thai immigration office, we were told that as long as I have 3 miillion THB in my bank account, my wife as my dependent does not need to have another 3 million THB in her bank account.

Now for the application, I have my financial statement ready, but does she also need to submit another copy of the same financial statement?

Anyone else come across the issue of having to report into the Immigration dept every 90 days still? I'd had assumed that this requirement wasn't needed as we have a visa for 180 days and if we need to extend to 360 max, we have to see the immigration to renew anyhow. And if youre renting a condo, TM30 form is needed.

Anyone else found the same?

Thanks - Tony

Is there an age limit for applying for Muay Thai visa? Apparently there is an age limit limit for the Thai language so figured I would ask about this as well as the cooking visa. Thanks for any “concrete” information you may have.

Can I change from marriage visa to DTV? Does it need to be cancelled first in Thailand and only then I can go to some other country to apply for DTV?

Is it possible to get a 90 day O visa for either marriage or retirement whilst in Thailand on a tourist visa. I don't want to use any agent if possible.

Hello everyone! I need to extend my retirement visa in Chiang Mai before September 28. If I plan to submit my application on September 10, do I need to ensure my bank account balance exceeds 800,000 THB by July 11 (two months prior) or by June 11 (three months prior)? Thank you for your assistance!
