Hi! I’m a digital nomad from Europe currently in Colombia. I will leave soon for Mexico, where I plan to stay a few months. Then I’d like to visit Asia and I’d like to apply for the dtv visa. Do you think it’s better to apply meanwhile I’m in Mexico City, where I see there’s a Thai embassy, or maybe it’s better to fly directly to an Asian country like Vietnam or Philippines, and apply and wait there? I think I meet all the requirements but I also see people getting denied with no reason and I don’t want to risk to fly to Asia and then fail the application. On the other side I don’t know how Mexico manage visas (bureaucracy is a mess). Has anyone applied in Mexico City? What would you suggest? I appreciate any advise. Thanks

I'm getting my dtv visa at age 43 years old and after 5 years into the visa, I'll be 48. What would be the best way to bridge the gap to stay in Thailand for two years until you qualify for a retirement visa at age 50?

As we have heard that Thailand os requiring proof of income again for tourist visa applications for 6p days.

I am reading the update and this is only talking about nationalities required to apply for it.

It isn't saying anything about people under "exempt" status. Where you dont have to apply for a 60 day tourist visa you can show up with approved passport and get the 60 day stamp.

Or am I missing anything?

Hello. If my husband is my dependent on the DTV, can he leave Thailand and re enter without me?

Morning all

Arriving in Thailand on 3rd May for 45 days.

I know to fill in the new TDAC 3 days before arrival.

Was hoping to get the 60 day visa on arrival, but I keep seeing on other groups on here that they have/planning to reduce it to 30 days again?

Has it happened, or is it still 60 days? If it’s already dropped back to 30 days, how’s easiest to remain for the 45 days?

Thanks everyone

Hallo

I live in Germany,

I'm German and 61 years old.

I have a work contract in Germany and because of that I am in statutory health insurance. I have the visa non-imm OA Longstay multiple.

Thailand pretends to be a health insurance with 3,000,000 coverage from a Thai insurance company.

I have travel abroad health insurance all the years with repatriation to Germany.

I don't know now if travel insurance will be accepted for the visa.

Reason for my question, the last border crossing the officials wanted to see my insurance policy and I had problems there.

Who can help me clear this question here?

Hallo

Ich habe meinen Wohnsitz in Deutschland,

bin Deutscher und 61 Jahre alt.

Habe einen Arbeitsvertrag in Deutschland und bin dadurch in der gesetzlichen Krankenversicherung. Ich bin im Besitz des Visums non-imm OA Longstay multiple.

Thailand gibt vor, eine Krankenversicherung mit 3.000.000 Deckungssumme einer thailändischen Versicherung.

Ich habe die ganzen Jahre eine Auslandsreisekrankenversicherung mit Rückführung nach Deutschland.

Ich weiß jetzt nicht, ob eine Reisekrankenversicherung für das Visum anerkannt wird.

Grund für meine Frage, beim letzten Grenzübertritt wollten die Beamten meine Versicherungspolice sehen und ich hatte Probleme dort.

Wer kann mir hier helfen, die Frage zu klären?

It only takes a few to mess it up for everyone else. DTV is going to be next.

Hi - what would be the best way to stay 4-6 months in Thailand? I will be coming from UK

Single Entry Visa: 60+30 days (90 total). A border run should give me another 60 days if I am correct when I arrive back at immigation, for 5 months total?

Multiple Entry Visa: 60+30 days (90 total). A border run will give me another 60+30 days automatically upon re-entering Thailand for up to 6 months total?

I was hoping to do a border run by air after the 80 day mark, is it important that I stay in the neighbouring country for atleast 1 night with the single or multiple entry visa, or will it not make a difference for the latter as the visa has already been pre-approved?

Thank you!

Hello guys, previously, I entered and exited Thailand and obtained a 2-month tourist visa for the second time. Now, I want to extend it again to travel more, but the only option I know about is annual language schools. Is there any other solution for 3-6 months?
