I finished my dtv and aprroved, but now need to sign the 90 days. I'm in a difficult situation - I recently moved from Chiang Mai to a new apartment in Lat Phrao, Bangkok, but the landlord refuses to provide his ID. Because of that, I can’t submit the TM30 form and update my address. My visa extension appointment is in the next few days - I urgently need a solution. If anyone has advice or has dealt with something similar - I’d really appreciate your help.

I’ve had ฿800,000 in my Thai bank for a couple years for my Non-O and wondering if it’s possible to switch to ฿65,000 a month without needing to do the monthly deposits for a year to maintain my Non-O? Chance somewhere between slim to none?

Is there anyone still stuck in “Pending Approval “ stage in HCMC Royal Thai Consulate General? I applied on 12th March and got request documents on 13th March and now still stuck in “ Pending Approval “. Do I need to worry for approval? Can I get any update information for HCMC situation lately? Appreciate for all the discussions. 🙏

I am here in Thailand on Visa exempt. I cannot get a bank account as tourist, but I cannot get Non-O Immigrant Visa without a bank account! I meet qualifications for Retirement Visa. I have a lease through early July In Karon Beach Phuket.

Is there any way I can get the Non-O without returning to USA?

Could I advice my visa company in here?

Is this the beginning of the end for Thailand?

Anyone get asked for a hired amount than needed for their DTV visa? Washington DC has asked for a bank statement with 550,000 thai baht (16k usd)

I fly to Bali next week and was trying to get this visa approved before leaving. Due to my pay schedule, I can't increase the savings account until after I'm in bali to accurately reflect the amount they want.

Should I just go to Jakarta while in Bali and apply there, or are they asking for the 550,000 thai baht rather than the 500,000 thai baht.

I have a question for the expats living in Thailand? From my observation and experience, is it common for wives to basically disregard their husbands, and carry on almost a single life? But still act as married? I have noticed Thai men who seem to always be waiting for their wives? I have also had this happen to me, although I am not married, or in a relationship! I am not suggesting anything is going on, but I was wondering why any man would bother, as it seemed he is really single? Please just constructive feedback, if possible?

Interesting she has been charged with working illegally, first case i have seen for online working. Lesson dont say anything bad about Thailand and keep under the radar.

Hi!

I’m in a little bit of a situation and am unable to pay last month’s rent and will be leaving Bangkok already. My lease contract says if I am unable to pay within 30 days, they will lock me out and keep my stuff and auction it, etc. and that my two month’s deposit will be forfeited.

I have left the property already and now the agent and condo office are threatening to call the police and immigration on me unless I settle the balance.

I know it’s an horrible move, but I thought forfeiting 40,000 baht of deposit should be enough to compensate for the last month’s rent, etc.

Question is, can they actually call the police and immigration on me? Contract only says repercussion is forfeiture of deposit.

Also, they have been harrassing my friends who helped me move out and live in the same building that they’d report them to immigration. Can they do that?

Any advice? (Aside from paying the last month’s due, because I really can’t.) Thank you!
