Just enterd Thailand trough Bangkok airport first time with the DTV visa. printed the dtv, and dtac. Handed it too the officer. She did not ask me anything. Also not about my student visa before 🙂

Is anyone knows if an e-visa application can be delayed in its process in the precise case that another application is still in process on the same account ?

1 application made and realize I made a mistake by submiting from thailand. This one is now in "request for additional documents" but I know it's gonna be denied. Sent a e-mail to explain my mistake but it is not possible to delete the application online.

No response from the consulate on this one and so I launch a new application fews days after (being oversea this time). I still have no return on the new application and I wonder if the first one might cause some issue for them?

I tried to call them but no answers...

Thanks for any feedback 🙏

I'm in Penang btw

Ok so received my Non O today in the remarks is written in Thai Business contact. No idea what that exactly means any ideas

Applied for DTV dependant. They gave me non b instead. Happened to anyone?

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to apply for the DTV while I’m in Malaysia, at the Thai Embassy in Kuala Lumpur. I will include all the required documents in my application.

However, I can’t stay in Kuala Lumpur for more than 10 days, as I need to return to Bangkok to take care of my cat.

Do you think 10 days is enough for the visa to be processed?

Also, should I apply online through the thaievisa.go.th platform, or directly at the embassy in KL?

Thanks a lot for your help!

DTV approved from Yangon.

Along with passport and recent photo, I submitted only a screenshot of my bank balance and my 2 year remote work contract from a company in Myanmar.

emailed to come in for interview 4 days later.

I was way over prepared for the interview with many months of bank statements, visa history in Myanmar, photos of me at work, website, copies of my degrees....

Interview lasted about 3 minutes. They had about 20 people report at the same time and you had to take a queue number and wait. They asked me how long I would be in Thailand, (I'm not sure, but at least 90 days) and would I do any work in Thailand other than remote work (No). That was it.

Approval notice within the hour.

It was the same day the notice came from Yangon that they were not going to issue any further tourist visas. The company that my contract is from anticipates having trouble in the future with business visa as well. So this post maybe isn't that useful for this group. I couldn't find much info about applying in Yangon when I was researching in anticipation of my application, so I thought I would just record my experience.

Hello, I’m going to apply for the DTV but I’m not sure whether I should go for the soft power or remote worker route.

My plan is to attend soft power activities (regardless of DTV) for a few months but I wonder whether it will hold up in the long run since it doesn’t really make that much sense for one to do the activities for 5 years.

Would it be okay if I show my earnings as a remote worker during future entries if I initially apply under soft power? Was wondering since the DTV visa document itself doesn’t really state which category it was issued under, and I earn in my local currency through my company.

If anyone has a good idea on which type (soft power vs remote) would be more suitable in the long run, please enlighten me.

Thanks in advance.

Have I understood correctly? If I arrive on a Non Imm O single entry 90 day visa, can I fly out and back again within the validity period of the visa (with a reentry permit) and be stamped in for another 90 days?

Trying to open bank account at 5 different TRB branches, Here is their response

🔹True digital park

They can’t do it. But I was told to do follow up after 2 weeks as the policy has changed.

🔹Onut Bic C Extra

They asked me about my DTV category “when i said workcation , they said no” but it can be done for those under soft power category. You might need some documents from Muay Thai or Cooking school

🔹Siam Paragon

At first the female staff asked my Visa and Passports. After a few minutes, a man (seems to be higher position) asked my employment contract, i gave it to him then he asked me where do i live. When he knows that i live in the another district, he told me to open at the branch of where i live. So if you live in Pratunam , give it a try

🔹Bangkapi Mall

No , asked for work permit 😅

🔹Headoffice

No , asked for work permit 😅.

DTV and Work permit 😅

So for now i’m looking for an agent who can help me to open TTB / KT or SCB. Your recommendation is appreciated

If I get a DTV freelancer visa, I don't need to pay taxes in Thailand as long as I stay less than 180 days per year, right?

Thank you
