Do I need a special type of visa to rent a condo in Bangkok and travel between the US and Bangkok? Plan would be to rent a place there and stay in BKK for 2-3 weeks every other month or so and when not there be back in the US.

Possible? Will a standard tourist visa work? Can I rent a yearly condo with this type of set up?

Thanks!

My passport has about 2 years validity left in it.

If i get a 5 year SP visa and it needs to get transferred to the new passport, will I encounter problems with immigration and proof of enrollment in a course ?

I am planning to apply for DTV visa. Currently I am in bangkok on tourist visa which will expire soon. I have a full time job in Hong Kong. I pay income tax in HK just want to work from Bangkok. It is a company registered headquarters in HK.

Can I apply from Bangkok?

What will increase my chance of getting the visa?

Is there any better visa which will allow me to work from home Bangkok with multiple entry.

I have a question. I have already got a 30 days extension for my non o visa stay permit after my first 60 days stay permit. now I wanted to know if there is any other way except a border run and re entry to get another extension or get a visa because I see that flying to another country may be more expensive than just extending the stay permit. I would appreciate any kind of help. And another question : is there a minimum amount of days that I have to stay in the border countries or can I basically return the next day to Thailand getting the 60 days permit again in the sense of a 1-day tour if they ask ?

Hi, I am 51 and my wife is 38 and we will be moving to Thailand in January.

Trying to get my head around which visa to apply for.

My wife will be my dependent.

For the OA visa, do both my wife and I need to have 800k thb in a bank account or, as it is a joint application, is it sufficient to have just have 800k thb in 1 account. Also, does it have to be in Thai Baht, or can it be in a foregn currency but the equivalent to 800k thb?

Can the OA visa be extended every year for a year in Thailand? Or do I have to go back to my home country to procure the letter of no criminal record and medical certificate?

For the OX visa, is it for 5 years or 10 years? On the Thai embassy site it says 5 years each time, total 10 years. Does this mean that after 10 years I would have to switch to the OA visa?

I am eligible as a UK national. My wife is a Russian passport holder. Is she eligible as my dependent?

And again, for the 3 million thb in a bank account, can this be in a foreign currency or does it have to be in THB?

Thank you so much for answering these questions and I apologise if they have been asked before, but I couldn't find any link.

Hello everyone I can’t find the answer so sorry if it has already been answered. My question is : how long do I have to leave the country to Thailand when I get my DTV? Can I ask it now and leave in 3 months for example? Thank you 🙏

Hi all

Quick question

I’m planning on transferring £12k from my business to my personal account next month (applying in February)

But I already have a decent stack of THB in my Revolut account

Is it okay to have the money across 2 personal accounts and do they take Revolut accounts into consideration

Thanks in advance

John

Hi All,

I'm new to this group. Last month I visited Thailand for a week and loved to stay for longer. I'm planning to apply for DTV.

I started my company in my country 3 months ago but the operations are yet to start. It is an online business and currently products are under development.

Am I eligible to apply for DTV? Do they ask for monthly revenues?

or Is it better to apply under soft power category for now?

Kindly advise.

Thanks
