Hi all. My husband has to cancel his OA extension because he’s been offered a paid position in Thailand, so will need to go to the Thai embassy in his home country to obtain the new visa. We’re in Bangkok. My question: after he goes to immigration to cancel the OA, how quickly does he have to leave Thailand? Are there a couple of days grace period or does he have to leave immediately? Thanks for any advice.

Have a question regarding Non O and Non O-A Visas

Does anyone have experience with obtaining a 1-year Non O-A Visa in their home country and then once in Thailand switching to a Non O after a year and after 12 months of depositing needed pension funds into a Thai Bank?

Seems that would be a "smoother" transition. I meet all the requirements, and I was already planning on getting health insurance.

Any thoughts?

Hey ya'll, planning on moving to Thailand later this year once I have more funds saved up, and trying to figure out which visa is right for me.

I'm a chef and plan on going the soft-power DTV route, through my friend's cooking school in Chiang Mai. However, knowing that I cannot work for a Thai company with a DTV I'm wondering if the Non-imm B visa is a better choice for me if I end up working at a restaurant/bar or elsewhere after being there awhile.

Has anyone switched from a DTV to a non-B before? Is there a better way I should go about my plan?

Thanks group for all the insight! Been learning so much from everyone here.

Does anyone know the DTV visa cancellation process?

I got the DTV visa 5 months ago. I’m in Thailand now and I’ve got job offer and have to apply for Non-B visa and work permit.

Please share me any experiences if anyone have gone through the process. 🙏

I have been in Thailand for two years on a language school visa. I am thinking of getting a DTV visa next month.

Has anyone with a history of a language school visa applied for a DTV VISA?

Has someone ever gone from retirement visa into visa through work permit? Or is retirement the final destination so to speak...

Has anyone recently been on a TR visa with multiple entries and then applied for a DTV and got approved?

My concern is that I have been approved for a TR visa and have had two to three re-entries within the past six months. I'm unsure whether I should email the embassy to cancel already approved TR visa before applying for the DTV.

Any suggestions? Thanks so much in advance! 🙏

Question:

I'm here on a DTV visa and work remote contracts in data science.

I have an interview with a local company that - if I get a job offer - will qualify me and my spouse for the LTR visa instead. The company specifically wants experts in my field with ,10+ years of experience and fluency in English, which they're having difficulty finding locally, so they specifically want someone from overseas at this point.

Do we know what happens if a second visa type is approved when you have a DTV visa?

For those of you who have done the DTV while on business visa, did you just fly out with the Non b and back in with the DTV?

Appreciate the response from those who have done it.

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to go to Thailand in March with a tourist visa. If I really like it there, I might want to apply for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV).

My question is: Can I apply for the DTV visa from a nearby country and return to Thailand to activate it? Or do I have to go back to my home country (France), which would be quite expensive for a round trip?

Thanks in advance for your help!
