Hi everyone,

So I’m planning to be in Thailand for a month, 2 weeks vacation and the other 2 weeks working remotely. I would like some clarification that I would need the DTV to work for those 2 weeks? The DTV seemed pretty overkill for just the 2 weeks I plan to work. Any insight is much appreciated. Also thank you in advance!

So, the retirement visa requires two months of having 800k in the bank before switching to monthly income, instead,

How about the marriage visa? Does it also mandate two prior months of money in the bank, or can one start out with monthly income?

Also, does the address you use with your Thai bank need to match the address of your non-O visa?

Thanks in advance for your replies!

May I know which SEA country has fastest processing days for DTV visa ? I heard Cambodia is now 2 weeks ..

I applied for my DTV visa online at the Cambodian embassy in Phnom Penh on October 22 at 11 AM, the same day they announced it would take 10 working days to process. I received it on October 30 at 11:21 PM. In total, it took 9 calendar days, including 6 working days and 3 holidays.

Here's my list of submitted documents:

Professional CV

Recommendation letters from two companies

Company registration documents for both companies

Pay slips from both companies

One-month Thai bank statement (account with minimal activity, deposit made on October 20)

Employee Contract From Both Companies .

I've just done my extension based on marriage at Jomtiem today.

Might be of interest to some:

I downloaded TM7 form from Immigration website and filled in at home to save a bit of time. The form has changed so I had to fill in 2 new ones there. You would have thought the immigration website would be up to date 🤔

They also asked if the money, I bring it over monthly, was from a pension. I said yes and she asked for proof which I didn't have. As this is my 5 th renewal she let it go but said it is a new requirement to show where the money is generated from. My guess would be it's to do with this tax thing that's apparently coming in🤔

I have just been told by Taipei that I need to provide minimum 6 months bank balance. But it seems others were granted DTV with one month and an ending balance 500k. Perhaps this is an example of better not to ask? But traveling there an applying without the necessary material would be costly.

Hi everyone,

I applyed for the 3 months non O visa valid until 22 October 2024. I already extend it until 22 October 2025.

Can I go out of Thailand when I want or I have to wait the end of the first 3 months?

Thanks for your help.

Roger.

Do I get it right that I can leave and come with this visa? Or perhaps better to get the reentry permit?

Hi

Has anyone used a sponsored letter for the dtv visa?

I'm from the US. I heard you can get a non-immigration O visa while still in your home country before coming to Thailand and then changing it to a 1 year retirement O visa. I heard you can do this using the E-Visa website. Is this a good idea to avoid the hassle of trying to get a bank account while in Thailand with a tourist visa?
