Good days everyone, I’m planning to submit my DTV Muay Thai Soft Power application in Vientiane. My question is: do I need to book an appointment in advance to pay the visa fee? If yes, which website should I use? The one they recommended seems to be the wrong site. Thank you.

Afternoon guys, I need a little advice if possible from anyone familiar with Jontiem immigration.

I’ve still 3 weeks on my visa and wish to extend it 30 days ( which I’m entitled too😇)

What is the specific counter I go to & do I register or fill anything in first?

I popped down for a look the other day & didn’t see any obvious signs… the Q at the information desk had around 30 people in and snaking out the door!

Thanks in advance and for previous spot on advice 🙏🏻

OK, I know its early and things of course will change but I like to get things some what planned out.

I posted the other day that I am exploring doing the DTV visa via Muay Thai classes. Rather do that then the retirement visa (will be 50 when I arrive). The 500k baht not an issue (have that locked away already) will even be making over 100k baht a month while in Thailand. *I don't want to lock in 800k baht in a Thai bank, I have heard reports of the banks freezing foreign account holders accounts.*

Some additional questions that I have and hope to get answered.

DTV visa is a 5 year visa, do I need to stay enrolled in Muay Thai the whole time in Thailand?

The visa is good for 180 days, do the day restart everytime I come back to Thailand? For example I came in and 2 months later I go to Malaysia for 2 weeks, do I start my 180 days over again?

Is it difficult to get a Thai bank account with a DTV visa? Simply want to be able to move and access money without paying high transfer and ATM fees.

Thank you for any advice you can offer.

About the current adress: For the Hotel Adress: would it be ok if I only stay there 1 Night (the Night when I apply) and then move on to another place an Hour away for 10 nights)?

Hi all. This might be a strange question but what is the minimum age of solo application for DTV? Is it 16,18 or even 21? Please let me know because there is no really confident answer on the internet. Thank you.

I'm getting a monthly retainer from a company my registered business works for.

So if you have to supply any documents with dates on them(like invoices or bank statements showing you got that retainer while in Thailand on the visa exemption), but you don't do any work while in Thailand on the 60 day exemption; does that mean the embassy(will apply in Laos) will make an issue out of that?

Anyone had a similar situation and how did it go?

Firstly, I apologise as I’m sure this question has been asked to 100 times, I’m new to the game. I am in Thailand now and I was misinformed (back in the UK) that I could apply my retirement visa while I’m in Thailand, a since being told by immigration that I would need to leave the country, I could go back to the UK or to a neighbouring country such as Laso and apply at the embassy there. My worry is if I apply there and I am denied my retirement visa and only get a re-entry visa for seven days, so I have two questions:

1. Would I stand more of a chance getting a 60 D re-entry visa if I was to fly out of the country if I am refuse my over retirement Visa?

2. Would my last three bank statements showing more than 65,000 but going into the account over the last three months be sufficient for the Finance side?

I would appreciate any sound advice.
