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?

Hi , I’m

About to apply for my retiremt visa on my own without an agent in Koh Samui. Any tips? Do I get the visa on the same day?

Your help and advice is greatly appreciated.

I'm running out of time to apply for DTV, so can I just come on tourist Visa then change to DTV in 60 days?

Hi everyone, I know the question I am

about to ask has probably been asked before but I can’t seem to find the exact answers for what I need.

My husband and I re-entered ChiangMai on Oct 27 from our vacation in Europe. We are from the US, and have been living in Chiangmai for about 3 months before we left for our vacation. We have a rental house, lease expires next July.

We have each, bank accounts with the min 800k baht set up a few months ago.

When we entered Chiangmai on Oct 27, immigration stamped for 60 days, expiring Dec 25.

We now wish to apply for the retirement visa. From what I’ve been hearing, I will first have to extend our tourist visa by another 30 days, after that, I’m fuzzy about how and when to do the retirement visa application. Will appreciate step by step guidance from those of you who are experienced. Much appreciated. Thanks!

Hopefully moving over to marriage visa soon and a little unclear on the process. I am mid 60 day tourist visa now. Can I apply now or do I need to be inside the 30 day extension?

Hello everyone, I need some information about exend visa,

Now I am holding Non-B visa and doing a job as teacher in Thai government school,

But now I decided to do my master's degree that's why I want fucus only in study.

Can I change my visa Non- B to Non-ed.

Thanks for sharing your advices.

Hello folks!

I am currently in Thailand with a non immigrant ED visa. Because different people told me that I can not change this visa to a non immigrant O based on marriage visa at the Chonburi Immigration, i decided to do this in Penang.

First question: Can I really not change the visa type at Chonburi immigration?

On the website from the Penang Consulate I couldnt find the requirements for this visa type. On the page from the embassy of Kuala Lumpur i could finde some.

Point 6.3:

"Bank statement (last 6 months) in Thailand with recommended balance of 400,000 Thai baht"

Second Question: Mean this, I need to have the 400000 ฿ in my account 6 month prior to the visa application?

Thanks in advance!

I'm a US citizen and can I change

Visa on Arrival for type B in country the same as I can change tourist visa for type B?

I want to be certain.

Cheers

Hi,

I’m an Australian planning to go to Chiang Rai in January to learn Thai.

Seeking advice please:

Can I change a tourist visa to an education visa once I’m there?

Would I have to leave after 90 days?

If so, are their restrictions on return? I’d like to stay 12 months if possible.

Thanks very much in advance 🙂

is it possible to change my non immigrant OA visa (i am at the second year stamp at the moment) at the immigration in chiang mai into a non immigrant O family visa (i am married and have a kid)? i have heard thats possible, have anyone done it?

thanks for advisement.
