Got a thai girl pregnant and I’d like to stay here…. I did 3 border runs this year and was planning on doing 1 more in the new year then applying for an education visa - then a Thai bank account - then probably an o type visa for being the child’s father…. Does anyone have any advice for me to make things a bit more simple please 😩😅

DTV - London - application

I was due to fly on 1st January 2026 and applied on the 2nd December 2025 in London. I shared a copy of the 2 hotels I was due to stay in as part of my application. I've since cancelled both hotels as the free cancellation period was coming to an end. Will this affect my DTV application?

My partner has a DTV and we are getting married in a few months and I was thinking to get a DTV off his as a spouse. Would I need to follow the same rules for the financial part or can I get away with a sponsor letter as my partner will be the one supporting financially whenever we are in Thailand

Hi do you know if you can just do a border run on a DTV? Don’t want to do extension and have to do all the paper work. I rather leave in the morning and come back same day for my dog.

Thanks

quick question for those who have applied in vietnam

i’m flying into hanoi and will be applying from there. however i will then be flying to da nang and will ultimately be flying back to bangkok from there. will they care that the outbound flight is not from hanoi?

thanks in advance!

Good day. Some advice please. Applied for DTV visa 8th of December. Today 21 days later my application still says processing pending approval. Anyway to contact them and ask why is it taking so long or do i need to be more patient. Applied in Bali, Indonesia.

90 days report can be done from 76-97th day of your stay. What if I leave on 91-96th day of my stay? Do I still have to report?

Hi. Do I have to do a TM30. If just using hotels to stay ? Tia

Greetings 🙏

Anyone have recent experience of applying for DTV from Indonesia or Malaysia?

I'm spending February on Lombok and March in Johor Bahru.

Got to decide where to apply from. Need to consider processing times and possibility of attending an interview (Jakarta/KL).

Alternatively I could just apply for a Thailand tourist visa while in Malaysia. This would be necessary because of my recent travel history (no further exemptions).

And then apply for a DTV from the UK in the summer.

Grateful for any insights 🙏

Not a visa question but hope someone can kindly offer some help!!

Flights to Loei - Having great difficulty in making payment from my UK Bank Account to Air Asia. My bank confirm my visa debit card is NOT blocked.

Any other airlines I can try?
