Looks like they're tweaking the LTR requirements a bit.

Remote worker: company needs to show 50 million in income over 3 years instead of 150 million.

Wealthy global citizen: no more monthly income requirement

Remove the cap on dependant LTR visas from 4 to unlimited.

They are also gutting the Smart visa program and completely getting rid of it except for the Startup category.

Is 3 mths of bank statement necessary? And how close does the statement date need to be before the actual application submission? Thanks. Mick

how have you applied and got your DTV Visa?

Only show proof you’re the business owner?

HCMC Vietnam question.

( apologies in advance if the answers to my questions are obvious. I don't see a consolidated answer on here , so was hoping for a response from someone with firsit hand experience )

I live in Thailand but work all over Asia so quite hard to tie down exact dates, but of course will make it work.

I read that people are are applying online for the HCMC and waiting 2 weeks for an appointment.

1. Is the 2 weeks a minimum ? Set in stone ?

2. Can you select a range of dates for your appointment?

3. Can I only apply once inside Vietnamto lock in the appointment. I'm aware that proof of arrival are required. I'm just not sure that is needed at the start.

I will be providing the following. My Thai address will be our family villa in wife's name.

1. Passport copies

2. Passport photos x 2

3. Latest wage slip. More available upon request.

4. 6 months bank statement. Latest balance of bank balance. More available upon request.

5. Letter from company, confirming my salary, length of employment and remote work ability.

6. Singapore Tax return. Showing taxes paid in full.

7. Proof of address in Thailand on bank statement.

Just applied in Istanbul - fingers crossed, I will keep this upated! Before online if choosing "Turkey" it would say there is no place to apply. October 8th this changed. Just an FYI - it can all be done online now

If I arrive in Thailand on DTV & stay 60 days then come back a week later and stay another 60 days do I have to do a 90 day report ? Or is it for 90 days continuously ?

How is the DTV process going to change once it switches to e-visa? It sounds like it would be easier but with a closer look it seems like you have to apply from your home country. Anyone have any information about the e-visa? For example, I called Jakarta embassy and they said they will not accept in person appointments starting in October.

As a remote employee of a Canadian sales company, I am interested in relocating to Thailand while maintaining my current job. Would this qualify me for the DTV visa?

Just want to confirm something:

A Non-O Visa based on marriage means that you must be married to a Thai person before applying, right? You cannot apply in your own country, travel to Thailand get then get married, right? Seems to be the case, but with so many saying "tiT" one never knows 😜

As of this message what are the 1 year + visa options for someone under 50, not married. American if that matters. I'm aware of the elite visa. He has 27 days left on his current visa but only 3 or 3.5 pages left in his passport. Looking for one year stay + only. Thanks in advance.
