Does anyone have experience with Visa agencies that claim to cover your dollar amounts needed needed for visas real or b.s.? Thanks

Hello, I have a TDAC question. I will leave the USA early on 11th but not get to Thailand until the 14th. Does this create a 3 day in advance problem? TY.

Hello, I am currently doing my research on moving to Thailand. I have been to Thailand a few times throughout my life. I have been "retired" since 30 years old. I get a pension from the US Government.

I am exploring 2 visa options.I do understand that rules constantly change.

DTV visa by way of Muay Thai training.

Question is do I need to re enroll every time I leave/re enter Thailand?

Retirement Visa- Currently I am 47 so would have to wait til I turn 50. I have a constant monthly pension since I was 30 years old. Pension is well over the 65k monthly requirement. I do not wish to open a bank account in Thailand put over $25k (which I do have in my US bank now). Mainly because I have heard that Thai banks have been freezing accounts of foreign holders. And that the money has to be in the account for 2 months prior to getting the visa.

Any advise someone can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a such thing as a 5 years DTV medical visa for medical treatment in Thailand. I'm searching for a the best specific cancer specialists to work with my doctor's in the USA. So I will need to travel back and forth twice a year

Hello,

My Non-B work visa expires on 18 January 2026. I have an immigration appointment booked for 9 January to renew it.

Is it okay to apply for a visa extension so close to the expiry date? Are there any risks or penalties if documents are complete?

Hello ,

I want your advice.

I am going to Thailand from Sweden on January 6 .

Then I am going for a short trip to Penang Malaysia, on January 10 to January 15 ,then going back to stay in Thailand til March 15 returning to Sweden again.

Should I apply for Tourist visa now, or can i go without visa getting 60 days as a Swede , renewed 60 days when returning from Penang Malaysia on January 15th??

Or what is your advice?

DTV

I'm currently in the process of doing my DTV visa but the embassy is asking for additional documents.

Do you think it would be okay if I didn't add the additional documents and basically put it on hold , whilst I travel into Thailand because I have to do a training course at one of the offshore centers in Pattaya, then one that is done , fly back to Vietnam and then upload the documents.

Does anyone have any experience of getting a DTV soft power through an artist residency? I'm looking for something specifically in Chiang Mai

Can you open a Thai bank account on DTV Visa?

Hi

Stuffed up calculation when I booked my return ticket, my flight is in February but visa expires on 19th January

I assume can’t extend a dtv at all ? Is only option to jump to another country and return ? Or they got strict on that in new visa reforms ?

Cheers
