What is the DTV visa and what is involved?

Any advice much appreciated

I have Verizon as my cell phone and I'm on a plan where basically I get unlimited 5G, unlimited international calling, unlimited texting and i'm not about to give it up. But, I want a post-paid Thai number for my eSim #2 - any suggestions on companies and/or plans?

If I am staying at da nang

So is it Hanoi or sigon embassy?

Hi! I have the DTV on my current passport. However, my passport is almost full and I’m about to renew it. How will this affect the approval page that I submit at immigration in the airport? It has my current passport number and I’m worried it may cause problems once I have a new passport. Has anyone walked through this yet? Can I do something at immigration? Or is it not a problem as long as my visa gets moved to my new passport? Thanks!

Yesterday I was asked for a scan of all pages of my passport. I took a black and white scan with my phone and scanning app, which I then compressed online to get under 3MB.

Today I was asked for the 'original' scan of all pages of my passport.

Has anyone else had this? Is it likely to be because the file included the word 'compressed' or because it was black and white rather than greyscale?

Are they checking the TDAC at the airports? I've seen a few posts and comments saying IOs are at best just glancing at the TDAC QR code but not scanning it. Some posts even said they were waived through without having done the TDAC. For those who arrived after May 1st, what's been your experience? Is the TDAC being strictly enforced? Just to add: I'm NOT advocating for NOT filling it out: I'm just asking about IO attitude towards it.

Im on a DTV now but plan a long term marriage visa soon. Has anyone gone through the process of setting up a business in Thailand? I did my LLC in the States in about 5 minutes I dont think its nearly that easy here. Should I break down and get a lawyer? Recommendations?

when apply non immigrant O visa, I only plan to buy the inbound air flight. However is the outbound (return flight) required?

Hi everyone.

I've seen a lot of people mention inserting a cover letter.

I've got the full application completed but I don't see a section to insert a cover letter.

Where should I insert it?

Thanks for any advice.
