It really might have saved a lot of confusion if the DTAC was simply called TM6 online or TM6 live.

Confused. I applied for a DTV visa around a month ago and some days ago i just got a mail saying ”Approved” but when i check it says that i have a tourist visa?

Do anyone in here knows what this means? Is this a DTV visa or did i get a normal tourist visa instead?

Hey everyone, in reading through as many posts here as I can and after calling the embassy of my home country I'm still a bit confused on how to handle my situation regarding location and residence.

I have a country of residence, I am currently not in (which does NOT have a Thai embassy). I also left my country of citizenship I was visiting recently which does have a Thai embassy with which I spoke to. My business is US based although I'm neither a resident or citizen there and not present there either.

I'm getting a lot of mixed information, I've read that I need documents proving my residence ties to my country of permanent residence (utility bill, residence card etc). I've also read I need proof of my current location, which also often seems to be documents related to residence? So I'm confused.

When I spoke to the representative from the embassy she really emphasized the importance of showing residence ties to your permanent place of residence not my current location, although she seemed to indicate my original home country would be acceptable too.

On another note did anyone apply from their home country that is no longer their permanent residence? If so what documents did you use?

So I'm at a bit of a loss here. I read about people traveling to Laos, Vietnam etc to apply for their evisas, I could do the same and am considering it. I just know my situation is a little more convoluted than most and applying through a foreign embassy as a tourist may only further complicate things. Any suggestions or clarifications are welcome. 🙏

Hello folks.

Just a quick question. I've got a reply via email from Thai insurance company, where they said that I need 2 kind of insurances in order to enter Thailand. I don't understand why do they say so, because the consulate's website clearly states that only 1 insurance needed. This is really confusing. Please, anyone who recently got an STV visa and could enter Thailand, would you please clarify this issue. Sorry in advance if this was asked before, I can't find information elsewhere.

Alert! Must use eVisa now

I thought I had my TR single entry visa application completed days ago. I used the “apply online” button on the consulate site – Los Angeles. I then received a stock notice that I must REAPPLY on [members only]/

So I must start all over and upload all the documents. The Support Documents page is confusing. I must attach a “declaration” (no description). What is that? What is the difference between a “travel booking confirmation” document and ASQ confirmation? I also need “proof of Accommodation in Thailand.” I assume that is housing after ASQ.

Passport, covid insurance and flight confirmation were the only straightforward of all the 10 required documents. It seemed to save only one uploaded page and my bank statement and flight confirmation are two separate pages. Also, it won’t accept PNG or word documents, only Jpeg, jpg or PDF.

What are the requirements for a “letter of invitation”? I will be staying with my daughter.

Has anyone successfully uploaded an eVisa? Thanks!!

I have a question !

I have non immigrant O from the beginning, and extension based on retirement.

At yearly extension or some trip with re entry permit immigration write different.

Sometimes they write: non-O

Sometimes they write: non-Re

Sometimes they write: non- Im

I have all three.

This is confusing.

Anybody have some explanation??

Has anyone applied for a Non O (spouse) Visa in Australia? The Consulate in Melbourne are telling me I need $8,000 AUD, but from what I can see on the application form, this is for a Multi Entry Tourist Visa. For a Non Immigrant Visa it states 20,000 THB per person, or 40,000 THB per family. Confusion reigns!

Hi Everybody. I am in the process of figuring out the TM30 app but am having trouble understanding the visa types shown. If anybody has any idea it would be a great help and hopefully could help others in the future too. Thanks.

I just fly back from Penang to Phuket and I got the stamp that I did confuse? Is it a visa? What does it mean ผ 30?

Hello everyone,

I am having a 60 days tourist visa (single entry) but would like to go to Malaysia (by land) for a week.

I have just got to Thailand at the beginning of the month.

Yesterday some really helpful members of this group advised me to apply for a reentry permit. Today, I was talking with a travel agency and they told me that there is no other option for me than to apply for a new visa at the thai embassy and that I will lose my actual visa by leaving the country as re entry permits are not an option for tourists..

I am really confused now...

Does anyone has practical experience with that?

My plan was to go to the immigration office of koh samui in order to apply for the re entry permit.
