I have been on a Remote Worker DTV for 5 months.

Immigration didn’t give me the 180-day extension because half of my money is in the U.S. stock market and the other half was not in my Thai bank account for 30 days. All my other documents were fine. I still work for the same company.

I will make a visa run and enter through Bangkok airport.

Is there a high chance they will refuse my entry?

Do they want to see 500,000 THB in my bank account and check that it has been there for 30 days?

Hi guys, apologies if this has been asked before.

I am writing on behalf of my partner. She is applying for the DTV, her account balance has dipped slightly below the 500k baht minimum a few times over the last few months, applying today's FX rates. Will this be a problem? Otherwise, we will make sure her final ending balance when she applies will be significantly well above the 500k baht requirement. Thanks!

Hi, I’ve entered Thailand for 3 weeks on Non-O visa (3-month) and plan to extend it (or my stay, to be precise for some) to a year, which will require a 2-month deposit record of 800k baht at a local Thai bank. I’m just about to get an address certificate, with my lease contract, from the Immigration Office ; the address certificate is required by most Thai banks. My question is……..

before my Non-O expires 3 months from my entry, yet my bank deposit has not reached 2 months, how may I continue legally staying here and make my bank deposit reach 2 months, so that I may extend my stay to one year ?? 🤔

I know my Non-O (3-month) is good for only single entry, and as soon as I leave Thailand, I will need to re-apply.

Thank you so much for sharing your great knowledge ! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hello!

I’m from the UK and wanting to apply for a DTV at the beginning of 2026. I’ve been doing lots of research online but figured it’s best to ask people who have experienced the application process themselves so I’m 100% sure on what to do.

The DTV stands for 5 years, whilst living in Thailand, do you have to visit the embassy every 6 months or do you have to leave the country every 6 months and then re-enter? Can you also be denied re-entry at any time?

I know you need 500K THB when applying, do you need to keep this balance in your account at all times so they can check you still have this much money when you get re-checked every 6 months?

Any answers/advice to the above questions would be super helpful, thank you so much in advance😊

Also, feel free to DM me, I’m up to have conversations with people about their DTV experience!

Planning to apply for soft power DTV visa in Hanoi.

My current funds are on Wise. Should I transfer everything to Revolut then apply? It would be the right amount.

Please advise. I can also show both accounts I guess.

Revolut has my daily spending.

Wise has my clients transfers.

Is the US a good country to apply for DTV from?

Hi People, My Non O visa expires on 7th Jan 2026, what is the next stage to remain here in Thailand on a permanant basis.

I have sufficient funds in the bank for over the last 2 months.

I have a TM 7, but is that the correct form to stay here.

Hi all!🤚 This is my first post and the question ❓️is very specific regarding the LTR visa. All I know is the info in the pic. What order do I take steps to get the visa? Suppose, I go to Thailand ✈️to open the bank account💰. How much money has to be in the account? What's the next step? What other documents do I need to prepare before flying to Thailand? Would 3 - 4 weeks be enough for obtaining the LTR visa before returning to England? We own a condo in Pattaya in case it makes a difference. Thank you all in advance, bullet points in the correct order would be much appreciated 😇🙏

looking for advise here. Perhaps others have some experience on this. My wife is Thai and I had her come to the USA under the K1 Visa. Now we plan to travel back to Thailand and live there moving forward. This means I will be under an Non-O visa when I travel back. I am getting all documents in the USA to make this a smooth transition. From a documentation stand point is there any thing I should look out for. I plan on bringing over several authenticated copies of the marriage certificate from the The Thai Embassy in USA to Thailand.

When renewing the Visa on yearly basis what should I expect?

It looks like exit and re-enter on this Visa is permitted. What does that process look like?

Do I need to have a living location such as a condo locked in prior to landing? Is a hotel sufficient?

Has anyone worked with a legitimate lawyer for a DTV visa? Only looking for actual experience and recommendations, not people advertising themselves to me. I'm going to have a combination of some remote income, student loans for my masters program (fully online) and maybe 8-10k in my bank account. I just dont see me getting the minimum balance in for 3 months with my timeline. My kids dad is moving there for work and we want to make sure the kids start at the beginning of the school year. I could marry him for a non O but honestly I really dont want to 😭
