Someone please refresh my memory. If I go to Thailand on a tourist visa and after 90 days I fly out, when I come back does my tourist visa renew or do I need to go somewhere to apply again? US passport

I am starting "the process" to live full-time in Thailand.

I plan to:

1. arrive in Thailand from the US in June,

2. stay two months with a friend near Udon Thani,

3. Go back to US for August to finish up with getting a house caretaker.

4.In September, Return to Thailand for a long time.

Question?......

For step 1 should I still arrive in a US Pasport and apply for an LTRVisa while Im there?👀

OR Apply now for ?something? on their website before step 1?👀

I don't have the 800k yet, but pull over 100k baht/mo pension. They should let me open an account right? Ill have the 800k easily in less than a year.

I appreciate any information on this. Thanks.

I applied for a DTV remote worker visa in Tokyo with a US passport, with all the required documents and prerequisites, and was given a multiple entry tourist visa instead, valid for six months. Do I have to wait for the METV to expire before applying again for the DTV soft power through vietnam?

When applying for the DTV online it asks for my first name and last name. From traveling in the past, I understand that for some countries you need to put both your first and middle name in the first name space. I’m trying to figure out if I need to do that for this visa application. Also if I do put my first and middle name in the first name space, it doesn’t allow me to put a space in between the names. Will this be an issue?

I’m hoping to hear from somebody who has already been granted the visa, who has a first and middle name, and applyed with a United States passport. What did you do and were there any issues?

Also, do they require a specific amount of income each month to grant you the visa or is it just a lump sum you need in savings?

I work as an independent contractor. I’d also appreciate any advice on how to apply when I both have my own buisness and also work for outside companies?

Thanks!

Hi - I have a couple questions regarding my Destination Thailand Visa as my US passport is expiring in January 2026.

-Is my understanding correct that I will need to show my new passport along with the old passport (or copy of old passport) that the DTV was approved for? Is there a way to transfer the DTV to the new passport?

-When entering Thailand with the DTV, will they reject entry if my old passport has less than 6 months remaining (I’m working on renewing my passport, but unsure how long it will take)?

Thanks in advance.

I'm applying for the DTV from Bali, US passport. I can stay in Bali for 16 more days.

Questions:

1-Is everything done online; no need to go to Jakarta?

2- Is 2 weeks plenty of time to get the visa?

Thanks in advance!

Has anyone applied for the DTV from Manila, Philippines with a US passport and can share their experience?

I know although requirements are generally the same, the actual process and approval feedback differs between embassies. Thanks.

USA passport. My husband's 19 yr old nephew would like to visit us (we reside here) in Thailand for 6 months. What would be the best Visa for him to apply for?

Hello all...although my US passport is good for another 8 years all my pages are almost used up from my traveling. Anyone know how long it will take at the US consulate in Chiang Mai or Bangkok office to get a new passport?

Hello, my daughter is currently on a training scholarship at Thanyapura Sports Resort in Phuket. They originally had her enter Thailand on a non-ed immigrant visa (I think is what it was called). She had it extended and was in Phuket about a year and a half. She traveled to a competition in Europe in December and as the paperwork for her contract renewal was delayed, she ended up on overstay for a couple weeks; she paid the fee when she left. She now has a US passport - originally was on a Micronesian passport as she's dual citizen. Thanyapura had told her to go to Laos and apply for the DTV, which she did, but she was denied. They said the reason was lack of 500,000 in her account, though the training resort had provided a letter for her to confirm her financial support; the resort said that's all she needed, but apparently they were wrong. We are at a loss now as to what visa she should apply for. Her current contract is for a year. She is back in Micronesia and the e-visa site says US citizens applying in Micronesia must apply online through the Beijing embassy.

Any suggestions as to what visa she should apply for? Or should she just return on visa-exempt? Or is it a big risk of being denied entry because of the previous overstay (though on a different passport)?
