Hello, I am exploring the idea of getting the DTV visa via Muay Thai training. Looking for gyms in Bangkok, since that is where I plan on living. Anyone have any experience that they can share pros and cons? Any recommendations on legit approved gyms that work with DTV visa applications?

I am sure this has been asked but I am asking again....I am a veteran and I am in country right now. I want to apply for the DTV visa as I don't meet the age requirement for the retirement visa. I don't have a lump sum in the bank but I can provide everything else including proof of monthly income. Has anyone here gone through this process in country?

I'm going to Hanoi on Tuesday to apply for DTV, and since I'm not sure how long I'll stay there (depends how long they are going to make me wait for getting the work done), I didn't book a return ticket to TH. Could it be a problem at Vietnamese immigration when entering the country Tuesday ? How did you guys manage that part ?

Thanks.

Does anybody recommend an agento to apply to this visa? I see a lot of rejections for small mistakes and dont want to risk it.

Hi, how do you show a bank statement for 3 months when the money is in different deposits within the same bank?

I’m working on my application but stuck on the document part as it asks for multiple documents but only allows one file each. If anyone could help me I really appreciate it

Accommodation question

- do you need to have accommodation for 2 weeks or can I just book 10 days?

Maybe a silly question but I’m kind of stumped here. How do I prove my current address? I’ve been in SEA for the past 6 months just hopping around on tourist visas. Came home to apply for the DTV. No passport stamp on entry to the UK, I don’t drive, living at home with parents before I left for Asia so no utility bills. I can submit a bank statement but it hardly proves I’m actively in the UK. I have flight info back to the UK and a physical boarding pass, is this sufficient? Any other suggestions? Thank you in advance.

Hi everyone. Any idea how long does it take (more or less) for the soft power at Paris ambassy? I applied 19th of November, still pending docs. Cheers

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.
