My family will be moving there and applying for a remote worker visa from my wifes job. Do we need 800k baht total in the bank? Or is that per person? I will not be working and just be on the spouse visa as i will just be collecting passive income from renting out my property.

Hi Everyone,

I'm seeking some guidance regarding the DTV. I'm a New Zealand citizen currently residing in Dubai, where I work for my family’s company as Head of Sales. Most of my work is done remotely.

In terms of documentation, I can provide a signed letter from one of the business partners confirming that my role is remote. Would I also need to submit an employment contract? Is there a minimum salary threshold I should be aware of?

Additionally, the majority of my funds are held in an Australian bank account. Will this be an issue given that my residential address is in Dubai, my passport is from New Zealand, and my funds are in Australia?

After coming in and out of Thailand for over a year I via tourist visa, just got stopped and pulled at dmk immigration and questioned that it's illegal to use a "free visa" for longer term (I corrected them and said exempted). Now they won't let me in again with this visa type anymore. It seemed they just started doing questioning more and more people. I will need to get a different visa type going forward in order to continue my stable relationship with my Thai gf. The pressure and intensity of authority they are going with is really. It felt to me like they are trying to find things to pressure people to do dtv or Similiar.

Is it a mistake to use my Thai bank account to show proof of funds, instead of one from my home country? I’m aware it could highlight that I’ve essentially been living in Thailand for the past six months (on visa exemptions), and that I’ve had a Thai account for four years now (I’ve been on various visas). My passport stamps tell the same story, however.

TDAC – A Friendly Clarification (and a Little Nudge)

A few days ago, I made a post about the Thailand Digital Arrival Card.

(The comment section has since been closed – not sure why).

Here’s the link to the original post:

🔗 [members only]

And here’s the official update from TAT: 2 hours old.

🔗 [members only]/

> *“Long-term or permanent foreign residents in Thailand are advised to select ‘Thailand’ under ‘Country of Residence,’ which will be available once the system is activated.”*

So yes – Thailand was initially missing from the dropdown. That was an error, which I confirmed directly with TAT. It will be there when the system goes live.

In my own case – having previously held a NON-B visa and now holding a DTV – I am supposed to select Thailand as my country of residence, because I have my apartment here, live here, pay tax here, and is here 300+ days a year.

I must say it’s been amusing to read some of the confident “expert” answers in the group with things they don't know anything about.

So here’s a kind request:

Let’s try to stick to facts and official sources when giving advice – especially in a group where people rely on accurate information. Guessing can be fun, but it’s not always helpful. 😉

Hey. I’m seeing a lot of people saying they are not getting there DTV granted and that Thai authorities are being a lot stricter etc.

Has anyone had any success stories recently in the last couple of weeks?

Is it still safe to apply from bordering countries like Vietnam, Cambodia etc?

I am planning to visit Vietnam very soon and apply. I have all the required documents but just wondering is there anything to look out for? I have been on tourist visa in Thailand since last June and have done some border runs, could that have any negative impact? Would going through an agent help at all?

My company is situated in Europe but is now fully remote.

Thanks
