My marriage certificate is at the Thai embassy now. When authenticated I’ll get it translated and certified at the MFA in Thailand then get it registered at my local Amphor for the Kor ror 22.

Does the Amphor keep my marriage certificate? I’m going to assume I’ll need it for Thai immigration.

Hi all. I am planning on applying for the DTV from Laos for workation purposes. I am director/shareholder for a long established UK limited company. I am trying to work out from the embassys website what i need to get the uk office to send over for me for this visa. Has anyone in a similar situation applied? Could you confirm what you needed to provide them in that circumstance?

like, they ask for it to be stamped with a company seal which most uk companies dont even use, for testimonial from customers confirming my work there etc etc (which seems unneccesary as I am not a freelancer)

Any advice appreciated. :) thanks

I’m trying to apply to the HCMC online application website. Problem is there is a limit of 3 megabytes only per upload of any file and my files are much bigger than that. Anyone else had this issue and found a way to overcome it? Thanks 🙏

Searched everywhere, but still so confusing.

Doing my Thai driving license renewal from 2 to 5 years.

Need residence certificate. Is tm30 enough with 2 photos, and visa

/entry stamps? Do I need a house contract? ( just did in Pattaya for my dad, and those where the only required)

I travel every 3 weeks, so don’t have 90 day report

Do I need to make an appt for license renewal or can I come to DLT directly

Many thanks in advance 🙏🙏🙏

I'm thrilled to share that I just received my DTV from the Thai Embassy in Jakarta! 🎉

Thank you to everyone in this group for sharing your experience. It really helped me!

It was a smooth and quick process – I applied on Monday morning and received my visa this Thursday afternoon. 🙌

For those curious about what documents I submitted, here's what I presented:

1. Bank Statement showing the required financial amount.

2. A brochure with a proposal that I typically send to my clients.

3. My CV showcasing my professional experience.

4. A document explaining that I am a freelancer and how I manage my work.

5. A statement clarifying that I’m the sole employer of my company, ensuring I won’t compete with local Thai businesses.

6. Documents that demonstrate my business registration in my country.

7. The completed visa application form.

Everything was approved without any issues! 🙏

Hello everyone !

I got my new passport today and I know (thanks to you guys) that I have to go to Chaengwattana with the letter provided by the Embassy to have my stamps "transferred" to the new passport.

Few questions :

* shall I go there as usual early in the morning to do this?

* shall I ask for one specific counter or will it be the counter which deals with my type of VISA ? (non-immigrant F)

* a part from the two passports and the letter from my Embassy, shall I bring some other documents? (to be sure, I will bring for sure photocopies of first pages and last stamps and photocopies of the new passport first page).

Thank you so much for your help and support and have a good day !
