Where can I find a pdf/downloadable TM47 doc? I’m only finding where you can login and fill it out online but this is my first report so I have to do it in person…?

What's the cheapest softpower option for getting a DTV visa right now? I asked at one Muay Thai school and they quoted 40,000 baht 😂 which is absurd. Maybe all courses are so expensive because of this visa? A year ago, a friend paid 15,000 baht for a one year Muay Thai course, and now it's almost three times that.

DTV Visa Approved in Hanoi in 3 business days!!

Heyyy Digital Nomads!

Holy Moly!! 😱

I applied for my DTV Visa here in Hanoi on Tuesday, 2/10, and was approved today, Friday, 2/13...

Is 3 days a record or something? I am over the moon.

I am still shocked by how quick the turnaround was...I was not expecting a response until next Friday, 2/20.

Does anyone have a good agent to assist with obtaining a driver’s license in Bangkok? I’m looking for someone that you’ve personally used and can recommend, and someone that assists with verified genuine licenses. Thanks 🙏

Hi ,

I’m helping my friend who lives here in Bangkok under a non o visa.

I want to help him to check with folks here who has good recommendations for a good driving school here in Bangkok.

He doesn’t have a license from his home country so is getting himself through the school in obtaining one.

Thanks in advance:)
