I've just submitted my DTV application in Vientiane. I understand there is no online payment option. Can I just go to the Embassy without an appointment. I have attempted to figure this out online. Any input would be helpful. Many thanks.
Hey everyone. I'm in Thailand on a DTV and I was wondering what the process is of buying a motorcycle. I've been renting for a few months, but planning on buying one for myself. Do I need a resident certificate? Insurance? Registration? I've seen a lot of mentions of "green book" too. Anything I should be vary or mindful of?
This is my first entry into Thailand using a DTV visa. I plan to stay in Thailand for 60 days and then travel to another country for a week. Since I won't be staying in Thailand for more than 90 days, I don't need to submit a TM47 (90-day report). Even in this case, do I still need to obtain a TM30 from my accommodation? Or, since I don't need a TM47, I don't need a TM30 either?
Just an update on a dtv app as the info on these forums was very helpful. It is annoying people don’t use the search function almost every question has been asked and answered!
Submitted DTV to London on 18th November
Workcation
App form
Letter from work saying I could work remotely
Portfolio of what I do and cv
Bank statement (was only current transactions) showing 500,000 bht (equivalent) going in the week before.
Cover letter
Company registration
4 days later request for further info
Bank statement showing full name and address (current transactions not ok)
Pay slips

I then sent one account showing the 500,000 bht and a second account showing my wages in plus other money coming in.
Also my pay slips showing a healthy wage
I requested interim statements so all bank statements had my name and address
Approved yesterday
In short I wasn’t asked for flights accommodation or for the money to be seasoned.
I do think if you show you can support yourself and will be spending money that is half the battle.
I know that people who use an agency for the visa sometimes get slated and told it's a waste of money and so easy to do yourself, but if you are someone who is looking for that, I used A&S Visa Services AllSabaai Thai and they were first class. I flew into Hanoi on Saturday and my visa was approved yesterday! I honestly expected to be here at least a week (booked two weeks) so to have the visa already is awesome. Sent the agency my arrival stamp when I landed at 1am on the 6th and got my approval email at 6pm last night (Dec 8th). Any questions, fire away. Will be happy to answer.
I’m planning to reapply for the DTV visa after being rejected more than 6 months ago (the previous application was for a boxing course, submitted through an agent). This time I’m applying based on remote work, and I’m do everything by myself here in Vietnam.
Documents I currently have:
• Signed employment agreement (in English)
• Letter from my employer (in English) confirming that my job is fully remote and that all clients are from my home country
• 6 translated payslips (translated by myself in Word) – my monthly salary is around 1,500 USD
• Original payslips (local language)
• 6-month bank statement (downloaded from my bank’s website in English, with a stable positive balance of around 700,000 THB during the entire period)
• Employer’s business registration certificate
Before I submit the application, I want to make sure I’m fully prepared:
• Do I need any additional documents?
• Do any of these documents need to be notarized?
• Is there anything else that you recommend adding?
• Should I include a short personal background letter? If anyone has an example, it would be very helpful.
