Planning to get a DTV to learn Thai cooking and Muay Thai - I am in UK, British passport and then planning on getting spouse and 2xchildren in under my visa….am getting mixed answers regarding how much will need to show in savings. Some say only DTV applicant need £11k but others saying it’s per person (even though they’ll be dependents) - can anyone confirm either way?

Looking for Muay Thai gym in pattaya that can give certified Muay Thai course for dtv and has money return policy ( in case visa got rejected)

Does the start of DTV visa have to start from the date of training or it can start from whenever I include on the application? For example, there is a program I am interested in starting in October but I want to be in Thailand from June. How would that work?

DTV Cooking - Approved in Vientiane Laos!

Timeline:

* Landed April 8 Wednesday afternoon, uploaded final docs (visa stamp in passport and visa) and submitted online

* April 9 Thursday - Went to Vientiane Laos embassy at 9am, paid 10,000 THB in person

* April 10 Friday - Nothing

* Songkran Holiday 13 Monday to 15 Wednesday

* 15 Wednesday - Got an email for interview

* 22 Wednesday 10am - Interview. Where is your cooking school? Where will you stay nearby the school (show hotel booking, can book and cancel if needed)? Open your banking app -- BE AWARE they scroll through it and click on it themselves, so no hiding anything or deceit. What will do you after your course is finished (take another course)?

* 22 Wednesday 12pm - DTV sent in my email! Printed out at my guesthouse

* 23 Thursday - Flight to Don Mueng Airport, showed them the DTV paper, I looked in my passport to make sure they stamp correctly. Took less than 30 seconds with the immigration agent (go to one with a man, they go fast and don't ask questions).

Cooking course: Bangkok Thai Cooking Academy They were soooo helpful, fast, responsive. If you get rejected for DTV, they give partial refund.

Agent: Yes, I did use an agent. I used an agent that has a full money-back guarantee, INCLUDING the Visa fee. Message me for their details.

With DTV visa What is the minimum stay period of Border-bounce? If i go out of Thailand ( not Myanmer, Combodia or Laos) is there specific time period, that i need to stay out of Thailand?

Hi! What is the current processing time in Laos? Is there a way to find out before applying? We can delay our exit out of Laos, but not by weeks so I am wondering if it makes sense to apply now.

HOW MANY 1 YR EXTENSIONS CAN I GET IN A ROW(ONE AFTER ANOTHER)?

THANKS, EVERYONE, FOR YOUR ANSWERS GOT IT

Hello

Have someone apply DTV visa from Singapore?

If have can you help me for guideline pls.

Question for fellow DTV holders.

I got my visa through a 6-month Muay Thai package and that confirmation letter is now expired. Do you guys keep an active subscription running somewhere, or just rely on the original letter from when you applied?

With recent reports of immigration asking for training photos and even calling gyms to verify, wondering what the smart play is. What are you all doing?🙏

How far in advance are people applying for their DTV? Thanks peeps! 😀
