I have recently heard about needing to have the required 500k for atleast 6 months in your personal bank account.. By the end of this month I have well over 500k but not for 6 months yet..

Do any of you have experience with this? If this is true I have to wait a lil longer to apply😩

Hello all, I made a huge mistake of overstaying and immigration police made me get a flight out of the country and essentially banned me for 6 months. My question is since I’m moving on this day, how do I use this information (and passport stamp) to get my security deposit back on my apartment?

Thank you all for being so helpful as this is an advice group 💜

Hello, I have a Non O visa. If I enter Thailand, get the bank account set up and transfer the funds into it to season, would I be able to leave the country and re-enter in time to apply for the extension?

Would I just need a re-entry permit?

Thank you 🙏

To anybody who applied for DTV in Kuala Lumpur, have you been able to pass it without fulfilling those requirements and if so, how you managed to do that? My case: no relevant embassy in Malaysia and unable to proceed.

Hello, I need help. I'm currently taking a bus from Bangkok to the Cambodian border to leave the country for a while and then go back straight away (DTV visa required every 180 days). Do I need a visa to Cambodia to cross the border? And will I be able to get one at the border?

Has anyone received their approved dtv visa in cambodia? I am on 12th business days since my application was “pending approval” since 20th may and my flight leaves tomorrow.

British passport , over 50.

I’m looking to fly to Thailand one way , get my 60 day at airport immigration then extend 30 at immigration . In the mean time I’ll deposit 800000 and wait for it to season 2 months @b4 I apply for my 12 month extension/ retirement visa.

Now the question is… I know I’ll need to book an “ exit” flight out of thailand in order to enter Thailand on a one way flight from uk….. but that exit flight will have “expired” when I apply for my retirement visa/ 12 month extension . Will it flag up at immigration whilst I’m applying….
