Hi everyone!

Actually in phuket on ED visa with my wife, we would like to apply for dtv on soft power culinary, any recommandation on place in phuket who can provide documents for that?

Regard and thank you in advance for your help.

Ok Group. Any recommendations for van companies that that don’t try to set the Land Speed Record to Satun that will pick up at Phuket Central mall? See many on web search but like to get your experiences. Thanks

Hi guys.. Do you know any gyms in Phuket that are doing the DTV Muay Thai Soft Power? Cheers 🥊😊

Looking for options for border run from Phuket. Have looked at flights to Cambodia, but want to see if cheaper options. Thanks Group. 

Hi. Anyone knows about Khaolak Muay thai ? It's located near Phuket and they propose a Muay thai program for the DTV visa. Is this a reliable club?

Thanks in advance.

Hi guys, hoping for some help and advice please. We are from UK and planning to Marry in Phuket next month. I have our Embassy appts booked and need to arrange translation for the MFA appointment. Can this be done on the same day? Want to get out of Bangkok asap and off to Phuket. Has anyone done this recently, I can only find old threads on here????

Im trying to line up somewhere to rent on my first DTV entry. Does anyone have any recommendations of finding rental spaces for 6 months? Or even month to month. I've been searching on fazwaz and thailand property. Just wondered if there are any others? I am thinking of maybe 2 months in Bangkok and 4months in Phuket on the DTV.

Hi, travelling to Thailand 13 feb to 18 March, staying with a friend for a few days, then planning to travel to the following places.

Chiang Mai, Jomtien/Pattaya, Hua Hin, Krabi, Phuket and Bangkok.

Anyone in any of those areas free to catch up for a chat and give me their pro's and con's on living in Thailand would be appreciated.

Just please PM me and we can arrange something.

Thanks in advance 😁

Hi There,

Since Bangkok Immigration (Devision 1) has added Required Documents for DTV extension:

[members only]

Would anyone know if it’s possible to apply for DTV extension at Immigration in Bangkok, but based in Phuket? Meaning proof of Rent Agreement is for Phuket? Greatly appreciate your response without guessing 🙏🏻😉

Does anyone know *definitely* which schools/academies fulfill the Culinary Arts training requirement for the DTV? I'm specifically interested in Krabi Provence, Bangkok and Phuket, in that order.

Also, does the period of study have to be of a certain length?

(I see plenty of 1-day and 1/2-day courses offered at the Bangkok Thai Cooking Academy.)

And just fyi, ChatGPT references The Blue Elephant as a possibility. I've just received word from them that they are not registered with the Ministry of Education, and so they do NOT meet the DTV requirement. Which is a shame, because their courses and facilities look pretty bangin'.... 😃
